A while back, my NFS underground save file became corrupt, and then a few weeks after the DVD drive failed. I treated this as a coincidence and never bothered to get it fixed. Now I have bought another elite as it worked out near enough the same price as getting my old one repaired. So I have...

Yeah you can. Sounds like you were lucky to have it last that long!

Put some black plastic ones on and smere them in dog s**t.

Just out of interest, when others have removed theirs, was it a pain?

Shame, not seen this thread before and just had a good read. If you decide to buy it back from the insurers in the event of them writing it off, I would be interested in your rear bumper and exhaust system. I know its cheeky, but worth a mention!

Will look into that! Ta

Lad at work got this yesterday from PC World for £99 and isn't a fan of it.

My 360 elite has had a faulty dvd drive for a while now, and I have been too lazy to do anything about it. Now Forza 3 is out, I neeed to get gaming again!! I was wondering how much my elite would be worth to someone who wants to repair it. I can't get on ebay in work, and have no net at home...

Could do with this on the subaru! But worry about what to cover/not cover.

Has it been serviced regularly? I gave mine a full overhaul when I got it a few months ago and has been very economical. Was suprised how good it was on fuel actually to cars I have had in the past.

Thats what I can get from mine. Have managed once to get high 40s when driving behind a lorry on the motorway at 56mph. Doing 70 on the motorway will easily return at least 40mpg Hardly ever drive it like that though. Low 30s when hooning it is common. Has always been great on fuel. Just...

Ah right, centre. Suppose a pair of digital verniers to get it near enough in the centre should get it good enough for a little light use. But I expect there are tolerances that mean it needs to be adjusted to match externally rather than exactly on the bolt spacing. Rears are defo something...

I have had some Ktec coilovers now since Day 1 and havn't got round to getting them fitted as I have been looking into taking it somewhere to get it done and all set up. Enough is enough and rather than pay extra for fitting, which I could do myself, I have decided I may aswell fit them and...

Its on page 4

Theres a 20" Samsung for 169 IIRC, maybe even cheaper than that. Didnt take too much notice, but know it was peanuts

:eek:

I am after broadband so need a phone line rental. Anyone know of any deals that offer free/cheap phone line connection? The house I am in had an active BT line, but since I moved in a few weeks ago I havent joined BT or anyone, and the Post Office want £107 to sort the line out. The guy on...

The split pins are pennies and should sort the problem if you currently see movement there. If its come away inside the door skin, then you have issues.

Been hearing about this a lot lately. Is it recommended? Is it likely to mess anything up? I am no longer connected to the internet so don't want to do it if it is going to cause more problems. Only reason I ask is that my 360 sometimes freezes so thought it may be worth a go if its rish...

When I needed a new car, I looked at the 172s as they were cheap and looked like a little nippy hatch. I scanned the net, found a clio in a nice blue, saw it was a cup. I then thought I want a clio in that colour, read more into the cup and then decided I wanted the rawer car. None of my...

£30 IIRC for 2 sessions of go karting at the place near cheddar. I only know as I went there for a speeding course thing with the police.

Yeah £83. Thats what the lad said. I thought it used to be £69 or something. Il try get the rings. Ta

But if it gets there and they find out it doesnt have that, won't they hold on to my console until I pay the 83 quid for repairs? Hmm. Or I could leave the 360 on for about a week and hope it overheats

In case of a future search by someone. The answer to the question: "When an xbox 360 is repaired, is the warranty extended?" The answer is yes, but only for 3 months. Which is a bit of a bummer in my case! Hmmm slimline ps3 release meaning lower prices on the ps3 near christmas... Tempting!

I expect you got used to it, thats why it now sounds quieter. I got a magnex system for my GTi-6 and was disapointed when it wasn't much louder than standard. After a while it got fairly loud, but not raspy. I liked it. All my mates said it was bloody loud for a NA car with just an exhaust and...

My 360 elite had the 3 rings fault 14 mnoths after I bought it. I was out of the 12 months warranty, but as the 3 rings are covered for 3 years, I got it repaired for free. Great I thought. The Motherboard was replaced, along with the DVD drive - which wasnt faulty IMO, but meh. All free! A...

Anyone that is after a cheapy tow sticker: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Tow-Graphic-Sticker-Decal-Banger-Stock-Racing-Car-4x4_W0QQitemZ110417297882QQihZ001QQcategoryZ36677QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem I used these people and was very impressed. You can state your colour. A you can see in the...

Sky give you line rental (£10), 10gb allowance of up to 10mb broadband (£10) and basic package of sky (£16.50) so £36.50 for sky tele, a phone line, and broadband. Better value than 11.75 for BT line rental, ~£15 broadband. All through one company and you got some extra channels for when the...

Didnt really fancy getting involved with a BT contract incase I wanted to get sky a few months in and do my line rental through them. Right! Went round earlier and explained the situation, as far as the landlord is aware, unlike the other utilities, where they will ring up, take readings, and...

Well sky only want £10 a month for line rental, so I would be best off using them and having broadband through them too. Only thing, is I dont want to pay the landlord £120 when I leave to have their line with BT again!
