Hi Guys

I need some help on where i can take my car to be fixed,
there is a few things I need to fix

1) Diff Main seal needs to be changed its sweating,
2) My reverse light stopped working, I checked the wires and there is no break, there is no power either, assume FRM module needs to be reset or changed.
3) Think i need a headlight balast, my left globe flickers,
4) my sun roof stopped working, tried reset by pushing the button doesnt reset, it can tilt but not slide, I can open it manually.

note on the above is all these issues happened at once. I did however boost my dad from my battery which i am assuming caused this, also i did change the headlight globe to a brighter one also.

Then the car was parked for a long while, few months. when i tried to start it again the below happened,

1) the water flange is leaking water,
2) the car doesnt start, it swings for long and randomly will start, some times it will not start at all. the error code says the crank sensor needs to be changed, but whats weird is that when it does start i can drive it around, it will still randomly switch off but starts again on the turn. If i drive it hard it will switch off.
whats even more weird is that when it doesnt start if i remove the metal pipe from the fuel pressure rail to the injector, when i crank there is no diesel flowing out of it, which makes me think its a diesel pump issue, but then when it does start it works, so confused.
also for some weird reason, when it doesnt start if i shake the wires by the low pressure fuel sensor, sometimes it starts. so i feel like that needs to be changed also.

I never use the car for over a year, I have 2 minds about either selling it or spending money to fix it and keep it.
miliage is around 340 000km

Please can you tell me where i can take it to diagnose with INPA maybe, and then best place to fix it.
Im in JHB south area.

Thank you

on the crank angle sensor, replace it, it also triggers the diesel pump

Thank you, any idea on the best place to take the car to fix all the issues in JHB south.

I did take the intake manifold off before to do the swirl flap delete, but really dont want to take it off again myself, felt it was a hectic job and then need to find intake seals etc.

i rather just send it somewhere.
