    Creaking suspension noise from drivers side sachs damper

    My trophy's recently started making a creaking noise which looks to be coming from the drivers side suspension. You can hear it when driving over any slight bumps in the road and especially over speed bump. Also today noticed what must be a slow puncture as the pressure on this tyre was down to...

    Loose electrical connector on recaro seat/ pretensioner?

    Whilst cleaning my interior out today, I noticed a random electrical connector loose on the driver's side seat belt pretensioner (trophy recaro's), no idea what it is or where it should be connected if at all, doesn't seem to be one on the passenger side. Any ideas?

    BMW E39 Replacement Radio

    Its a Business one, trouble is it has a BMW 6-CD changer in the boot and can I get the steering wheel controls to work through an adapter on an aftermarket unit?

    BMW E39 Replacement Radio

    Bit of a stab in the dark I know, but does anyone know of where I can get hold of a replacement BMW Business Radio for my dads 2001 E39, 525i SE Touring. It has the flat pin connector type, not round pin which seems quite rare. Only a few on ebay which are £180+ postage which seems a lot. I've...

    Bentley Continental GTC - Diamond Black. 30+ hrs

    I bought the raceglaze alcantara cleaner and tbh its difficult to warrant the addtional cost over just using APC as mentioned. The raceglaze stuff failed to lift some of the more stubborn marks on my trophy's alcantara seats.

    Re-Map

    I was also sent 6 different links and download ids for the 8200_7804_OEM.rst file not sure what the reason for that is either?

    Re-Map

    Yeah no worries drop me a pm after 12th July as I'm going away to USA for 2 weeks on tuesday. It costs around £65 for the unlock code and maps. Think we might be able to use the maps I downloaded if they are the same ones required as yours, saves buying them again. Does anyone know if this can...

    Re-Map

    I've just remapped mine with the RS tuner today, very simple to use just need to download the correct OEM calibration file to update the software and then just load the performance calibration. Takes about half an hour in total. I'm in Leicester too if you need a hand just give me a shout.

    Cross threaded hub on mk3 clio

    Thinking about it, when the extended bolts were first threaded on they went in smoothly no tightness until the last part of the thread (maybe as the extra 4mm length forced the cross threading to happen)

    Wheel cleaning.. **** of a job!

    Anybody know anything about this Clio Trophy?

    £4,900 seems cheap with both belts done, unlikely to have had dampers refurbed so add £500.

    Rear Brake pads 'wearing thin' (MOT advisory)

    Had my MOT last week and there was an advisory that the rear brake pads were wearing thin. However when I had a good look at them they seem to be not even half worn? Is this right to flag them up on an MOT so early? Is it advisable to change them fairly soon? Car is a 182 trophy and only on...

    Blown Bulbs (LOTS)

    Something similar has happened to me... the N/S main beam bulb has blown 3 times on my 182 (trophy so normal halogen bulbs) since I've owned it from January, what could be causing this? Is it best to replace the pair of bulbs at once as I've only been replacing the blown one previously.
