The interior light buzzing is, i believe, the climate control temperature sensor fan running. Cant do much about it, iim afraid. After 18 months, I dont hear it anymore - I have WAY to many other rattles drowning it out!!!
On a similar note about trip computers, mine has now decided to reset...
I say go for the very cheapest tyres you can find and then count the savings you have made as you spin into a tree on the first wet corner you come to.
Not really, obviously, but when you consider that tyres are the only thing between you and the road, surely buying quality tyres must make...
Hi,
The front and rear wipers on my mk2 172 are crap. Even with a perfectly clean windscreen (tried proprietary glass cleaners, meths, alcohol) and clean blades, the wipers smear - its almost like theyre not removing all the water and leaving a very thin flim/smear of water behind.
SOOOOO...
Try Alex at www.seriousperformance.co.uk for all meguiars stuff (plus other stuff which is WAY better than megs – concours waxes and the like) as he gives free p+p.
HartgeBob - nice to see someone else who knows about fully cured factory paint ;-)

Thats true, it shouldnt. But pure carnauba is as hard as a brick, hence petroleum d is used to soften it. BUT there are diff. levels of P D - the more times it has been distilled to remove impurities the better. Still want as little of it as possible in my waxes. Some of the expensive zymol...
The zymol in the bottle is pretty good stuff. its actually made under license by turtle wax. It is a b**ch for streaking tho. As lee M says, you must mist it with water and buff off.
In fact misting and buffing and carnauba wax is a good idea.
before you buy anything, check out...
Get a good polish, with as little petroleum distalates as possible. Are you working by hand or RO?
After youve polished, use a glaze like 3Ms Imperial hand glaze. Top off with a good quality pure wax (again, as little petroleum d as possible, avoid stuff like turtle wax, etc)...
On hP, the rules halves and thirds rules apply, regardless of what you purchase.
After you have paid one third of the agreed amount on HP, the finance company cannot retrieve the goods from you without a court order.
After you have paid one half of the agreed amount on HP, you can hand the...
I wondered this, as i think my exhaust has started to blow, too.
Not being very mechanically minded, how do i know for sure that the exhaust is blowing? Sometimes it sounds like it might be, other times it doesnt.
Dont want to go to reno and ask them as im sure theyll say it is (even if it...

You can buy P21S (which is the same as S100) from Alex at www.seriousperformance.co.uk. The polish (GEPC) is £10 and the Wax is £16, IIRC, including free p+p.
Give it a try, you wont regret it.

The bright blue zymol cleaner wax (circa £13) is made by TurtleWax under license. I imagine the £5 car shampoo also is, but not 100% certain.
ive never used used the "expensive" zymol waxes, so at the moment my opinion (if i really have one, having never used the stuff!) is swayed by the many...
hi Kis
i was about a website a friend of mine has set up selling high-end US detailing supplies... nothing sinister or bad or anything.
Did a search, but that didnt turn anything up.
Just wondered what had happened to it, that was all.

Hello,
Does anyone know what happened to my thread about Serious performance. i cant seem to find it. Brun pointed out about a wrong pic on the website, and i wanted to check which one it was.
Has the thread been moved/deleted? Im sorry if I posted it in the wrong forum.
Can anyone...
Yeah, but the shampoo n stuff is the proper quality gear, not your turtlewax or halfords stuff.
Besides, seriousperformanceshampoonstuff.co.uk doesnt quite roll off the tongue so easily, does it ;)
Cheers,

Hi,
Just to let you know that www.seriousperformance.co.uk is now up and running.
They stock a huge range of US products that would be near impossible to locate in the UK.
Good prices, with free p+p on about 95% of items, and great service which I can vouch for personally. Alex is also...
Dont bother with meguiars clay.
