Back again! These are still OOS and I need them ASAP as the car needs a mot and it was flagged up in the last one so can anyone give us any decent alternatives? Tia.

Bummer, checked daily and nothing set up an alert aswell. Are these the same?? https://m.autodoc.co.uk/snr/1928124

How you got these? Still showing as OOS for me.

Thanks mate, never knew that! Strange way of doing things!! OOS anyway so will keep an eye on them.

Bump! I'm after some for my 182 but it seems they are out of stock and they are £80+, how the hell are you lads getting them for £40ish???

Cheers all for the replies, just been pricing some up and there is roughly £100 diff between the tyres mentioned compared to PS2's - cheapest for 4 fitted is £504. I know I said couldn't stretch to Michelins but I thought there would be a bigger difference in price If truth be told! I remember...

... Other than Michelins! because I'm poor at the mo!! I've ran Rainsports and ZV7's and found them pretty good, should I stick with them? Any offers or anyone recommend the best price for them too please?? Ta.

Thanks all for the comments and it being French it's started to work today after doing the sum of sweet fa to it! Quirky things as they get older ain't they lol!

The old bulb that was in won't go back in! So it rules that out, going to check the n/s holder as something ain't right, shouldn't have this much trouble putting a bulb in lol

Yeah tried twisting both ways but it won't engage, there is a slight 'slit' on the bulb holder that the dimples twists into but it doesnt look right on one side to me but not 100% sure tbh. Odd one, all the other bulbs go in fine.

Sorry pal been stuck in work unable to reply! I've tried to insert the bulb - other came out OK but it will not rotate to securely fit ie the little dimples on the bulb will not rotate and fit into the holder.

Quicky guys, Rear o/s brake light out, took the light out changed the bulb however it will not twist and lock into place, any ideas why?

PITA to do yourself aint they? just had a look at a few guides and it sounds that way going off them! I don't mind getting my hands dirty but one to leave to the pros methinks with a ramp! I've just contacted Birchdown and see what they say. Cheers all.

What's the going rate for one fitted? been quoted £400ish and going of comments on here it's a 4-6 hr job.

I was going to mention that but I thought nah won't be that as the clutch is heavy by design! Any sure fire way to say 100%?

Quick one Guys. I noticed today whilst on the motorway every time I put my foot down the revs shot up and I got a short burst of speed then they came back down again within seconds! I thought I had a turbo for a sec!! It did this in every gear apart from 1st really. Any idea the most...

Cheers lads for the replies. I've been in touch with Snappy and the price is good but it would be Feb before he could turn it around and obviously getting it off without damage is the issue. Defo ruled out a cheap knob now!

Where from? All the ones I've seen are over £100. Dildo comment has made me either get a genuine one or retrim although with the retrim I've no idea how you (A) get it off without damage and (B) who retrims it and how that process works etc - snappy?

Same. I've heard it can be a pita to get off but I am willing to give it a go, trying to keep costs down on this one as I can't justify mega £££ on a knob! I'll take a look at your project thread.

Evening all, I need to replace my knob (oh er!) as it's looking tatty and the leather has come away. I looked at a genuine one but refuse to pay £100+ for it and came across this...

Update for Tubbs Vice! Wow its sorted, man alive!! I've poured the petrol into the tank rather than over the car 🤣 It turns out it was a wire issue on the ballast, not exactly sure what but swapped it out and bingo (y) Happy days, cheers for the replies!

Yeah that did cross my mind, easy enough to do? Gonna see if Clip brings anything up too when I find it in the Garage! Failing all that, gonna pour petrol on it and stand back!!

Mate, honestly I've gave up for now will have a final look tomorrow and post back up to say I'm pissed is an understatement raging emoji lol Appreciate the replies btw, only thing keeping me sane 🤣 1-4 above is correct, 5 - works apart from dipped bulb 6 Yes done that, all ok Yeah thinking...

Yeah I think so! I plugged the good light into the bad side and it works perfectly, I've looked at both 'bad' lights and everything looks fine, can't believe what the issue is because like I said earlier it was working OK until I switched out the sidelight bulb. Baffled doesn't even begin to...

Fuses in the passenger compartment are all OK, I swapped them around to check and same story. Im totally lost now, bloody odd that they were working until I put new sidelight bulbs in. I put the nearside headlight in the o/s and again the good headlight all worked OK so not a wiring issue...

I'll check tomorrow, thanks. Ive just seen a fuse diagram and yep your right two separate fuses for the headlights 15a.

I've checked the relays under the glovebox, does each light run off another fuse? I've tried two headlights so I'm guessing I wouldn't have two bad Igniters/ballasts, is there a way to make sure? I suppose I could try to connect up the driver side to the passenger and vice versa to rule out the...

Evening all, Baffling me this one. My passenger headlight has stopped working since I changed the sidelight bulbs as they had gone but now the passenger headlight has gave up. I've checked the bulb and that works fine - I threw it in the drivers side and it was working fine. I have checked...

Cheers for the reply Don’t call me Dave! RAC have been and it was a nice easy one which is good news! Car was flooded!! Couldn't believe it when he said that I thought today's cars didn't suffer from this issue only the old uns with a choke! You live and learn.

Hi all, Came to start the 182 today after it had been sat for a week previously working fine no issues and it won't start. It turns over but that's it. Battery is not old and I even gave it a charge to make sure and battery is 100% good. Vid below. Any ideas? Rac are coming out to...
