    Which Sat nav???

    TomTom/Garmins are preloaded with speed camera database information - which includes blackspots and 'high risk' areas (van locations), but if for detection you would be better going for a road angel - however these require a subscription

    DAB Signal problems.

    just noticed this thread, duno if you have this sorted yet? I fit these on a regular basis for a large car parts company (I'm sure you can guess), and encountered a couple of issues before with the antennas. Basically if the earth strap is stuck down then removed and stuck down again this...

    Squeaky noise when turning wheels

    Lol couldn't find my receipt but had 3jobs on the car by the same company (water pump, dephaser/timing, and pas pump). Got paperwork for 2 of them, so through process of elimination of online banking, looks like I paid £440 - unfortunately don't know what was parts and what was labour. All my...

    digital radio adapter

    I work for a well known car part retailer :p, and would advise that your best option if for a connects2 AutoDAB unit - fits behind stereo/footwell, then theres a glass mounted antenna which you can fit by removing a-pillar - this will be the only visible part. These work with factory radios so...

    HU leads - quick question.

    yep, as long as the factory radio was a 'tunerlist' (this is written on front of radio) and u have display on top of dash

    HU leads - quick question.

    the pc99-x12 is the one which needs to be connected behind the clock - pita connects2 and MTAudio (on here) can supply a resistive adapter so that you simply have to plug in at rear of radio - iirc this is the correct connects2 lead for a clio with display -...

    Fitting a new radio (DAB)

    DIN is just the size of the stereo - you get single/double din - the standard clio stereo is single din so no facia adapters are required to fit an aftermarket single din

    Fitting a new radio (DAB)

    I would sooner recommend the sony dab700 unit instead (http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_869325_langId_-1_categoryId_265865) - purely because the Philips comes with a crap rigid antenna which has a magnetic base and is designed to...

    Xenon gone again. Sad panda

    When i removed ballast from mine last yr I had water pouring out it too, so when i fitted new one just covered all edges in silicone to prevent any moisture penetration, hopefully its just the bulb in ur case - gets costly replacing them if u cnt find used ones (luckily got one of ebay fr £45...

    Horrible clanking/scraping from engine on full lock

    Its the power steering pump - exactly same symptoms i had, started off now and again, the more often, mainly on cold but deteriorated quickly (within 1month), and started showing signs when warm also. It had started making some noises around 4months before I decided to get it checked out by...

    decat question

    I get the same problem with decat - mainly after using cruise control on bypass/motorways - think its because the car realises the emissions are high. Garage at my work reset it now and again, I did have a similar code reader (as posted above), from a company called beatthegarage, which clears...

    Arch Liner Compatability

    Searched this myself, and this is what i understood - 172-182 are different from standard phase1/2 non sports. Arches come in 2 parts on each side, so if you will need 1 part for each side and from what i gather its around £50 per section, so around £100 to replace front bits which seem to...

    What is this? *Photo

    chances are its the ballast/ignitor that has went - rare for xenons to blow. Mind and take out fuse before removing ignitor and let it discharge - or risk getting a shock - theres a reason y theres a hazard sign on it, piece of cake with bumper off/ lamp out.
