Is the Display/Stalk an Alpine accessory or someone elses? Any ideas on the cost of that Tom? Soo were looking at:- 9833 - £319 iPod Link - £70 Stalk/Display - £??

Ive just ordered a new 40gb iPod, seeing as the new ones were launched yesterday with longer battery life and lower purchase costs. Might strongly consider a new HU with adaptor now.

Thats why a few owners call them Pup/Puppy/scamp/etc :)

the only thing doing that Jon, is that the power cuts/surges when you start the car, so you are letting the unit power up, then surging it. So be careful. My 182 seems to start fine (touches wood) although it exhibits the same behaviour as my 172 (stuttery performance until warmed up, between...

Also, do you know youve done it? Or is it something only seen/detected from outside?

Have you had your oiled changed yet Lee? Or when do you plan to do it?

hmmm, not summat you can complain about then as its not a warranty issue. 2nd hand car - buyer beware :(

Mate, sure its not you being fussy? You bailed on the 182, now the 225?

Welcome to our home!!

no idea, but its the same on other peoples 172/182 etc. Very odd.

yes GPS is accurate. Same as my cruise control on the 182 reads lower than the speedo. 70mph on Cruise Control is about 75 again on the speedo.

Have to get some with Dialogys to have a look at the parts list for that area and see what comes up.

75ish on Speedo is 70mph on B2, thats in a 182 (and same in my old 172)

I can only compare my 182 with cup suspension to my 172 (normal) and can honestly say that its a vast improvement. It holds steady and level through roundabouts and round bends etc. So if the 182 (non cupd suspension) is the same setup as a 172, then yes Id say the cup suspension is definitely...

Get some Dci ones!! hehe

Are you talking about the plastic moulding that contains the maplight/general light above the rear view mirror? Looks like a little blue led, but no idea what its there for. I didnt have it on my 172.

Bell Direct will insure a second car with the no claims discount mirrored afaik. Also part of the Admiral/Elephant/Diamond group etc.

Satus Update - 240miles done. Just done my first work commute. 95 miles, Reading to Birmingham. It performs flawlessy so far. The cruise control is an absolute delight, just set and forget, well unless some pleb decides to change lanes! On the A34 there is a concrete slab section, where...

Ive done 150 so far (36hrs) and will be doing 1000 miles in the next 5days (200 each day). Then no idea for next weekend.

As for Toypop. I ordered mine on May 22nd, and I collected it yesterday. It was delivered to dealer on 12july.

Thats my car :D hehe. Enjoy it when you get it, Ive had mine for 36hrs now and I LOVE IT!!! :D

It is indeed rocko, he lives in abingdon. I met him this evening at the Reading meet, thoroughly nice chap :D

Anyone got the part number for the Lead that goes between HU and Changer? Lee M? Edde? Anyone? :)

As everyone else said, Id swap em.

There is a "spotted" forum for this purpose ;)

Its now covered 110miles. Its egging me on, I can feel it. I simply love the cruise control, makes motorway driving an absolute breeze. Road noise does seem higher than the 172, but its not unbearable. As you said Lee, you went from 172 to 182. I went from 172 to Ford Focus to 182. One...

lol, its the posing, ya cant go fast whilst posing. You ought to know that, being from Essex ;)
