Sh!t mate sorry 2 hear that!! I drive in and out of Lincoln every day that way. Ill keep my eyes open 4 the car.

I've just had an alternator too. 18 months old and 15000 miles?

That little green gearlever light works well about 6800rpm

What was scary was that the xenon’s just went out. They did not start to dull like a torch with a flat battery I was on an unlit country road too!!!

Nice one. That would explain why my car had gained a funny noise 3 weeks ago and a slight burning smell. The alternator bearings were on their way out!

Yes mate the AA came and recovered me

18 month old 172 15000 miles and the alternator burns out late last night! To add insult to injury I had to wait 4 hours in -2 degrees to be recovered!

Losing 8 mpg overnight I don’t think so mate??????

Nottingham mate

With the ignition on I know it normally makes a noise but now the noise is different. You hear the normal noise for 3 seconds then an electrical arcing/shorting noise then normal for 3 seconds again etc?? No lights on the dash, and 8mpg down on fuel?

This component is making a strange noise, my car is down on power and up on fuel consumption. Any help would be appreciated Danny.

Thanks guys I will tell him.

My mate has just bought a 02 plate 172 but his does not have esp or cruise control. Is his an import or is it because it is an early car?

I have driven this car myself, and i thought when i was driving it i must of been a celebrity, because every body looked at me! Yes thinking what a fool!!!

So are prospeed better than the magnex?

http://www.bbperformancetuning.co.uk/products/product.asp?id=11062 Is this true that the magnex is the exhaust to go for? Are there any other good ones?

lol i need a leaf blower and a little gimp to fit under the bonnet!!

Wash the car with NXT, rinse and Dry Vanilla Moose - Sonus Green or SFX White Spot Pad by PC Red Machine Glaze - Sonus Blue or SFX Blue Spot Pad by PC Applied UPP by hand Glass cleaned with AG Fast Glass Tyre Dressed with AG Rubber Plus Are these all meguiars r-jay? Your car looks :cool:

I was told this on another forum I use: No contest .....Zymol hd cleanse followed by Zymol wax........no residue better for the paintwork.......other than that dont buy a black car ...........but still use the above product whatever the colour as it is the biz............ Anyone know...

So it sounds like this Meguiars NXT is the stuff I need. Thanks Danny

O.K. mate but why was it that I polished it a few time with super resin and after that I did half the panel with colour magic and the colour magic side was 10x better?? i.e. no small swirls and the gloss was better too.

Which polish or wax do you guys prefer? I used to love Auto Glym super resin followed by extra gloss protection. I used some cheap colour magic today it masked the swirl marks far better than the auto glym, simply it looked better?? What is the latest product for that showroom shine? Thanks...

I gave wheel base a call and they sounded like a bunch of monkeys who knew nothing. All I was after was a price???

Thanks but I would like 16s not 17s

Im after some new wheels and tyres. Could someone recomend me a good place. Thanks Danny p.s. im thinking of super leggeras 16"

its was an accident when i smashed into a car head on when i was 17 so i dont think that washes! I still got in the sh!t

If someone opens their door onto your car in a public carpark and causes damage to your car, can you demand their insurance details as an accident has therefore occurred? If you had a witness and insurance details are refused does that constitute failing to give insurance details at the scene...

Cool
