Had this a couple of times i originally thought it was the engine mount, but if say your cruising in 2nd and the accelerate hard it doesnt knock or anything so im assuming the engine mounts are ok. It only happens when the wheels are spinning, i had it yesterday when had to dive onto a...

makes me cringe when it hits the limiter, surely that does more damage than using another few 100 revs

I dont really see what difference 500 rpm is going to make if its lettin you go to 6750 anyway! but that 500 rpm is quite useful to me on the road

same here mate its really annoying, on my way to work i have 3 mile normal road, 6 mile motorway then another 3 mile of country road to my work and apparently its not hot enough still when i get to work, id of thought the motorway stretch would warm it up enough. starting to get on my tits a bit

The a1 is a bloody long stretch of road, wanna narrow it down a bit?

that sounds right up my street, might kelkoo it

you must of mis-read the whole of my original post :rolleyes:

and the same again in the leeds area please! :D

^^^ i wanna know too the only thing i can imagine (even though its not really to do with the ecu etc) is if you put your 1st tank of optimax in it its still going to have some of whatever is in befor it and therefore diluted, on your 2nd and 3rd tank of optimax or whatever its going to be less...

welcome mate. nice choice of car

ok thanks for the advice, might have to get one of these nakahuchi or watever they are. they look mint! how do i go about using my denison ipod link into this though, will i need some sort of adaptor?

im pretty certain nothin is bent, its just to straighten out the steering wheel. where is demon tweaks based? anyone know anywhere around leeds/harrogate area?

good choice of car mate, nice low mileage for age too.. think the std alarm is made by cobra so a good make.

all cars make it dont they, just cooling down.. metal shrinking etc. nothing to worry about

Wonder why some dealers say reno wont pay then, maybe just lazy. because they really dont have (and its started to thunder here) to after a year... thats when i were on about supplyin dealer if get no help anywhere. what dealer did you use to replace eddie?

do you know what powers the speedo on a cup then, with no abs? or does it have the ph1 'box ? blimey

Oh yeah thats what happens in a straight forward situation. i dont know why a dealer would not do it. but if you have bad luck and cant get a dealer to help, and end of they day they dont have to as the trim warrenty is 1 year, the sale of goods act is only any use at the supplying dealer.

its ridiculous, cars are gettin far too complex with the electrics.! but i suppose we do benifit too, its a catch 22

quite a few in the nw mate, where abouts in cheshire you from my gf is from there.

Well, the not fit for purose bit is the sales of goods act but if you use this, only the supplying dealer has to replace it under this act not any reno dealer. so your options are to go back and nag a bit, call round other dealers see if they will just do it no questions asked, and if still no...

ahh never knew about that. hope nothin screws up with it then, how much of a common problemis it? not read about it on here before

might try a couple of other back street places, or ring him and tell him hes too expensive.!

whats complex about the electronics out of interest?

im thinking of going down this route now this amp stuff is doing my head in. so can i just upgrade 4 speakers and thats that, the head unit will power them nicely?

Back of what seat? i dont want to be running loads wires anywhere, might just pay someone to do it.. do u screw speaker wires into the amp then how do you connect the amp to the headunit? hmmm, i can do all this stuff if is instructions to follow!

not that i know of. your lookin at newish cars here so wouldnt imagine a problem

get the 172 cup mate. love mine and be worth more in long run when become really rare. keep it std though

yeah it is, needs the car for about 2 hours to do it too he said, is that right? that 50 quis is plus vat too, so i dunno a bit more

I need to get this done to straighten out my steering wheel, am i right to just trust the tyre place its going to get the right settings etc, and he wants 50 quid for it, didnt sound too bad to me??? or does anyone know anywhere esle in the leeds area that could do it RIGHT!

Most of my mileage is motorway at 80mph so keeps it pretty high. Any other driving is through town, if i ever get to a back road i get stuck behind a caravan or a f**king tractor so jus leave in 5th, think of it as a good 2nd hand buy
