    MK1 Phase 3; 3rd Brake light

    Yeah know what you mean, that goes to both of you actually. Bored of the Lexus lights, it's sort of a magnet to dickheads who just want to sit up your ass or try and race you in Daddy's 2l Mondeo. Despite being 17 there a time and a place for everything and I generally drive legally. Saw a...

    MK1 Phase 3; 3rd Brake light

    Shall I smoke it black? I'm thinking tint original lights and replace them for the Lexus ones, and tint the 3rd brake light. Anyone know how easy the 3rd brake light is to remove from the car and whether smoked lights and smoked brake light would suit it? Sorry about the crappy pic thats...

    Hazards randomly going on :S

    My car does this sometimes, but the otherway round, when I switch them on they decide whether to come on or not. A nice whack underneath the switch does the trick, French engineering at it's best - no really, you should see my dial lights and the clock.

    Gearbox oil

    What will my car think to me topping it up with Halfrauds Automatic Transmition (aka. powersteering fluid)? Got a litre sitting at home and as I've got a gearbox leak the lever has become notchy so it's time to lose to skin getting some oil in again. Will it mix with Castrol gearbox oil, I...

    neons

    Not my thing personally, but a lot of people here will say the same about my Lexus lights - and probably stereotype me as the average 17 year old on todays roads. I wouldn't consider neons on my car at all however, attracts the wrong attentions. Is a "pull me over" magnet to the police as well.

    Garmin i3 crash

    Cheers Brun will bare that in mind will probably prove usefull. Just a couple of questions, I know you cant add voices yet any hope on doing so in the future? Also how accurate is the speed it seems a bit slow updating. But don't get me wrong, I'm well pleased with it.

    Exhaust blowing

    Yes mate standard, from service history it's only had a backbox in regards to exhausts so maybe its on the cards for a stainless system.

    Exhaust blowing

    I've recently found my exhaust is blowing on my Clio, not majory but I can't stall the car by blocking the exhaust. Also when the engines running if I stand near the exhaust it doesn't sound right - Can also hear what I think is a rattle sound from it when I get to 3k I'll have to try and get...

    help needed - Brakes Stuck on

    My rear drums were making a grinding noise if I haven't used the brakes in a short time during the journey and done it when I first start out until I do some hard braking then the noise stopped for a little while. Just like metal to metal in the way of worn pads. I solved mine (by mistake)...

    Garmin Streetpilot I3

    My nearest staples is a good few miles away in Staples Corner, London. (Pun intended??) Edit, no it aint. it's in Epsom. Cheers for that will have to give them a try as I really really want a Garmin.

    Garmin Streetpilot I3

    Cheers for that matey, going to try my two local Halfords tommorow to see if they stock them for that price, don't hold much hope however.

    Creaky sunroof!

    Might be diffrent to yours and I wouldn't attempt it if it's under warrenty. But I solved mine by peeling back the roof lining and nipping up the bolts which hold the sunroof to the frame. They are more trouble than they're worth.

    Car sluggish with sub on

    Maybe my alts on it's way out, the lights have been dimming slightly more when it hits deep notes. Don't think theres anything wrong without the sub on as I've given my mate a drag race, down wisley airfield and I've come near level to him everytime and thats a Rover 200 Inj.

    Car sluggish with sub on

    I don't know if it's my imagination but when I have my system on the car seems sluggish in acceleration - even taking into account that it's a 1.4 and on a good day scooters give it a run for it's money. Is it at all possible, or am I just imagining it?

    Mk1 Side Repeaters

    I think the actual side repeters are the same, pretty much universal. But IIRC phase 1&2 have a little plastic surround which displays the engine CC on, where as the Phase 3 has this along the door trims.

    Squeeking sound

    Hmm only general suggestions, maybe sticky caliper? Not to sure about this one but; engine mount? I know most cars are quite jumpy at low speeds so maybe extra movement in the engine area causing squeek from the mounts.

    insurence

    I'm 17 too, I think Insurance companys are a bit funny about monthly payments are they not? Don't get me wrong I see no valid reason why they should be, the way I see it is if you don't pay a month then they cancel your policy but I think you have to be atleast 18 to take out a credit...
