You'd cry if you saw a picture of mine ;)

I will have soon yes.

Nice gains those from the schricks and map :approve: Who did your mapping, out of interest?

Gutting, I remember seeing your initial thread about the engine not sounding right. :dapprove: Hope it's not costing you too much to fix!

Cheers :) Spent alot of time and money on that car :o lol

My old 1.2, lowered 60mm all round... I miss that car :dapprove:

That's as she stands now ;) But yes, in answer to your question :) Good turnout tonight, just so bloody cold!

Me too - got some goodies to go on in the new year to enhance the "I drive it - not detail it" look ;) lol! Yeah it was the MAP sensor, new one arrived this morning and I fitted it in 3 minutes flat! :D So glad it's sorted now, can't imagine the relief! Haha!

Lol, bet my rear bumper is dirtier than yours! :rasp: Mine was washed the day before it broke down, so I aint washing it EVER again! ;)

Right well there's simple check to see if it just needs re-syncing or whether it's something else - 1. Turn Ignition OFF. 2. Press the central door locking button for more than 5 seconds. Note : the doors should lock then unlock. 3. When this happens, 10 seconds is allowed and the...

I like it, and as the saying goes 'it's your car' and all that, BUT...if it was too loud to pass an MOT my feeling is that's it's too loud to look/sound sensible on a 1.2. All IMO of course :)

Have you tried the spare key? Does the tiny red LED on the key still illuminate when you press it? What model is your 'Sport Edition', as in is it a mk2 ph1 ph2 etc etc?

I've said this before and might be totally wrong here, but I was having similar problems and it turned out to be my MAP sensor (after checking leads, plugs, coilpack and changing the O2 sensor). Does it hesitate when you accelerate and revs drop on idle almost to it cutting out? Do the...

What's wrong with the remote central locking Laura? By which I mean is it a faulty key or is the car not receiving the key's signal?

I aint cleaning mine, just glad she's running again! :approve: Sees ya all tonight, aiming to be there between 7 and 7.30pm!

Not bad I guess, for a 10MB connection...

Get a custom map from RS Tuning who are much closer being only over in Leeds.

Air intake differences also, but the performance difference is minimal if anything at all.

Front fogs aren't a legal requirement. The rear one however, is.

What offset are the Oz wheels as that will ultimately decide how low you can go?

If the pads are fine then just top up the fluid, but if the fluid level has dropped (hence the lights) then it generally means your pads are wearing down.

Low pads = low fluid

How did it happen? Have the bolts sheared?

Top two could mean the carbon cannister has been removed/is faulty. Bottom one is a faulty Lambda heater circuit - do the 172's have two sensors? Decat wouldn't affect how the car runs, but (obviously) will affect it's emissions.

From reading the ad I would say it's a pair. He refers to the Cams as 'they' and 'they cost £735 new' etc.

Could be the post cat sensor now. Is the car running ok?

F7 does the radio amongst other things. 15A blue.

22mm is standard length, so add 15mm spacers and you'll need 37mm plus, so 40mm.

MAP is an abbreviation for Manifold Absolute Pressure, the MAP sensor senses the air pressure difference between what's inside the plenum and what's outside in the engine bay.

3 and below it flashes, to warn that it's freezing outside!
