    Heater Stopped Working

    Lost the fans on my car yesterday, never had a problem with them before, just doing a bit of research I see this is the latest thread, will do the test for the bridge tomorrow and see what I get. Also seeing the "cheap" resistor packs off ebay are not recommended? what about a repair place? I...

    Upgraded LED Cree sidelight bulbs.

    Do these type occasionally fail and flick on and off? or not these type? I tried LED side lights years ago and gave up as they used to fail and flicker.

    Clicking noise when wheel turns (video inside)

    In the video the clicking sounds closer to the gearbox than where the wheel bearing is to me? If thats the case it *could* be what I experienced, the teeth on the drivers drive shaft sleeve had worn away, I had a buzzing sound changing gear but I still had drive, I thought it was the gearbox...

    What have you done to your car today ???

    ^ I spent the evening last night checking over most things, cleaning bits up pre MOT. checked most things bar the xenon washers. Knowing my luck it failed on the N/S - it worked but with not much pressure, I've spent the whole f**king day trying to get the jets as they are leaking anyway, but...

    Headlights / dash / flicking off occasionally

    Can I ask if anyone knows if all the small black relays on the underside of the glove box are all the same spec? It seems the one to the far right operates the lights? It was fine until tonight when the lights flickered on and off and I lost lights and indicators when I went over a bump, some...

    Headlights / dash / flicking off occasionally

    Hi, I'm experiencing something I haven't had to deal with before, recently I've been driving home in the pitch black and if I hit a rough surface the headlights have flicked off and back on, are the relays under the glove box? I've checked the two clear fuses in the fuse box, both look like...

    Check the watermpump, might be weeping from there, sump gets hot = coolant smell

    Window won't go down?

    There are 2 brackets on the window regulator that bolt to the door if you look behind the door skim, years of the door being slammed weakens these brackets and eventually they snap. You should be able to see if thats the case, if not take a picture, possibly the plastic part that goes in the...

    Window won't go down?

    As above first check the switch, worst case its the window regulator, there about £20 second hand and not too hard to swap over.

    Leaking sunroof

    Take it out, clean all the muck away and put a new foam seal on, as you know the old one will be brittle and not water tight. I used the seal from the link on my grandads car and its been good for 2 winters so far...

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    Cleared the CMOS etc, didnt even open the new PSU used the original, think there could have been a few simple errors from me before a possible short to the case as suggested in the Corsair, too hasty to call the mobo a failure and send it back, built it up and let it run it didnt post first...

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    Ok thanks cookie, first time I built it all up I had both of those in and I had the fans stopping starting problem. But I have a few more things to try tonight, also there is no on board speaker for beeps so I think I've read if I plug a speaker I go the line out I might be able to hear and...

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    So it's unlikely to be PSU ? On my 450w when everything was plugged in the case fan stopped and started. My test 550w I had the motherboard plugged in but it has no 8 pin plug, when testing it with that both the case fan stopped and started and the psu stopped and started. That was just psu...

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    Thanks for the response - I think I'm missing something as well, been a while since I built a PC so probably something simple. I will remove the battery on the mobo when I get home and try and re set it . I'm reading something about it being stuck in a boot loop. Ordered a 550w psu to play it...

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    Received the brand new motherboard replacement, tested it on the box with nothing connected but the power supply, my test power supply doesn't have the 4 pin connector ( I will try my 450w power supply shortly with the added 4 pin as obviously its lacking power ) but WITH the 4 pin 12v connected...

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    Yeah I took it out and tested it resting on the box it came in and had the same thing, Corsair cases stand off's for the motherboard where absolute s**t and nearly every other screw rounded off in the stand off forcing me to replace the painted stand off's to normal brass ones which where fine...

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    So everything arrived for my new build, the only thing I used from my old build was a corsair 450w PSU and the 4x Hard drives. I built it all up to the point of turning it on and all that happened was the fans span up - then died. Same thing over and over. So I stripped the graphics card...

    Excellent, thanks for your help. I'll go for that CPU next month, should be a nice improvement over what I have now. I might upgrade the GPU at some point, performance is fine for me but the stock cooler on the card has a small fan and its so whiny. I've tried to adjust the fan speed, it whines...

    Changing Gearbox & Clutch - Advice / Anything I am missing?

    By the way, when you eventually are finally looking to drop the subframe, there is a round hose clip that holds the lower coolant hose to the subframe. Its easy to miss, lower the front slightly with a jack each side then at the front of the car you will be able to use a 10/13mm ratchet to...

    Changing Gearbox & Clutch - Advice / Anything I am missing?

    I did mine recently after a brake down, cause of breakdown was actually a stripped drive shaft but a as it was planned to replace the gearbox (was already a refurbished on on stand by) I had a go myself. Tools wise I'd say definitely a good socket set, definitely good socket adaptor sets i.e...

    New calliper & Rear pads - no contact

    The caliper could be seized, you can take it off and wind the piston in and out with a screwdriver and add a bit off grease to try and free things up.
