What do you mean Ex OB ? It does have four holes down beside the gear stick I mean- I think it may have been one of these new boxes(trackers) some insurance companies offer to lower premiums for younger drivers ,nothing fancy. I could possibly be wrong .Just a guess. This is the cable -...

Solved. After ripping my car apart chasing this cable it led to under the passenger seat with nothing attached to it. My guess it had some sort of tracker in it for the insurance..

After looking at that it looks quite roughly done to be factory fitted. im thinking its possible someone's attempted to fix the poor radio reception with a second aerial instead of just replacing the base. Going to take the head unit out and check.

Nope. It just unscrews , I'll try and get picture uploaded without the aerial on.

84,000 - 86,000. Bought with minimal history, but have very quickly built up quite a pile of receipts. Got my cam belt done as soon as I bought it as there was no history. Got it done by a mechanic friend so no proof of them done , only the old parts. I'm guessing this will put a lot of people...

:approve:

Nope. It doesn't affect the radio either on/off. I'm stumped as well just going to buy a cup spoiler and try to forget about it:mad:

Finally got a photo...

Tdc sensor needing cleaned would be my guess. Take the air box out , above the gear box you will find a black sensor mounted on a metal bracket held on by two 10mm bolts. Take take that off and clean the plugs with wd40 and clean the little metal magnet on the bottom it's probably choked with...

I don't think so l33 ? I get a very poor signal on fm/am channels either way. As I say it looks factory fitted , was there any sort of factory extra it could be ? This is the only picture I've got , I've tried to zoom in on it but it's hard to see..

Same symptoms as I had. The engine will start to splutter (not firing on all cylinders ) when the alternator is failing to charge the battery and eventually it will cut out. I found it would start misfiring when the battery got below 8v and in my case , sometimes, revving it high would spark...

I'm not sure , it looks brutal whatever it is. I hope it's not some sort of tracking device. I'll get a picture when I'm home.

I have the standard aerial on the roof then a small stubby aerial on the spoiler. I've no idea what it's for and it looks awful. I went to remove it but it looks factory fitted... Any ideas ?
