You might find a better graphics card helps with the motion sickness thing, an older card may have to skip frames to keep up with the action so it looks jerky-this is what triggers it afaik.

Happened to me in my xr3, front driveshaft nut had come loose causing the effect described above by BrianR. Check it asap

Firstly Im no expert on spi or the common problems on this type of engine. Try anything you can. For example, fuel filter, plug leads, faultyblocked injetor, missing/loose vacuum pipes from manifold, brake servo leaking so engine sucking in un-metered air and running lean, splits in hoses, temp...

chip it and get xbmc dashboard to more stuff - like play online for free and surf the net and if you fit a bigger hd you can store your movies and agmes on it, check out http://xbox-scene.com/ if you are into this ort of stuff

mine is bigger than yours is getting a bit boring now fellas...........

cam timing? Maybe a valve is open on the compression stroke, your idea sounds more realistic to me like.

There are systems that use power after the engine is off and the spark you see is those items trying to reconect themselves (basically !). Its totaly normal, if the spark is big and you are getting a flat battery then the boot light might be stuck on etc

DONT PANIC!! Put service pack 2 on. This very thing had me bricking it last time i redid xp. I formatted in the end and lost 160gigs of roms. lol. sp2 will bring it all back to normal matey

Won't the diameter of the wheel (even with low profile tyres) be slightly different than with standard 15" alloys and therefor throw the readings out? Just a thought.

Could be one of the coil packs starting to go. Try not to use it more than necessary if it is still juddering when actually driving as it will kill the cat. If you in the AA they apparently carry spares in the van. Good luck

sounds heavy to me, have a look round the engine for any leaks, if your motor is high milage then it may be just burning the oil off through worn rings and or valve stem oil seals. I wonder if an emission test would help-anyone know if it would?

also they turn off when stationary and start the intermitent thing again when the car is actualy moving

have a check on google for xbox 360 3 red lights of death. Mine is broken and away for repair. Used for about 20hours! on the other hand it is a great machine-next gen for sure

okay sorted the knocking from the rear, i have a full apex -60 kit fitted to the car. i used the rear top shock rubbers that came with the kit, they are too "flat" and the dampers are bobbing around in the mounts. my mate drove the car while i was leant over the back seat and you can feel the...

thanks edde. you are always full of helpful advice. I will let you know how i get on buddy

I was wondering if it is possible to, ahem, "modify" the seat height adjuster to make the seat drop down any further, i have a mk2 ph3 2005 1.2. At the moment I feel like I am sat on the car rather than in it if you know what I mean? Also I am getting a knock from the rear-it sounds like a ball...

stick the rubber nipple cover over the end of the pipe (the one off the caliper bleed screw)

I wonder if a diesel middle section would fit, like a decat i guess?

Thanks for the advice fellas. I will let you know how i get on

Hi, another suspension question. I have a full apex kit fitted which has helped a lot but still the car rolls round corners like 2cv! Could the anti roll bars from a sport be fitted to my 55 extreme 4 I wonder? bearing in mind I still have the 14" clio alloys fitted-maybe these are the reason...

As the torque builds up the wheel will try to lift the suspension up. As it does lift the wheels spins and therefor the upward force is lost and the suspension spring bangs it back down on the road. This happens pretty quickly and its hard to "see" it. Because of the shock that is going through...

got 40mm, 3000 miles later now on 60mm. still looked too high with 40mm

Everything you do will be a comprimise-ie suspension = good handling/harder ride. Induction kit = more power/too noisy. Nice stereo = bettersound/more weight. Polly bushes = tighter ride/more road noise. Without exceptional design and clever implementation you just can't win. You need to think...

Hey thanks. Just dont want to get ripped, i appreciate it. Thats the good thing about this board :). Thanks again

okay, a very good friend of mine has found a 182 front and rear bumper with wings and side skirts, the guy's looking for £700. They are brand new-never painted. What you think fellas? I'm just trying to justify spending this amount in one go lol . . .

give the area around the screw a sharp tap with a hammer. Also introduce some heat onto the screw head. Should come out easy enough.nb a impact wrench is the way to go with these http://www.bombaydigital.com/boxster/projects/brakes/pictures/impact_driver_lg.jpeg

got my apex kit. good price and quick delivery. no probs at all

They are different m8. The revised filters are big long skinny things. Save your money, I did not realise when i bouight mine. Anyone for a 1.216v >04 k&n. Pm me if you want it, still in box and bagged up-never used (obviously) lol.

Fitted them today no problems-nice bit of kit. At last the car feels alive on the road (for a 1.2 anyhow). The ride is hard but not to hard, very little body roll and was 58mm for strut spacing (55 extreme 1.2) just incase you were wondering.

Hello, I have ordered my new suspension kit (apex -60mm). When I am turning and drive over, say, a grate i get a snatch at the wheel and a clunk, as if the top mount is loose or a balljoint is worn. I have read on hear about grinding a spacer?? Can anyone fill me in on this? Also how much do I...
