    Epic Emmisons MOT fail Help needed

    It doesn't have a MAF I'm afraid it's uses a MAP sensor. I'd be tempted to have it plugged in and have the live data liked at and pay attention to the coolant temp sensor value to be sure it's accurate. Also take a look at the MAP sensor when the engine is off (value should be around...

    Epic Emmisons MOT fail Help needed

    I really would like a Logan myself. just a few questions: What is the overall condition of the vehicle (runs okay, not using more fuel than normal) and are there any poor sections of exhaust allowing air in? What were the actual emission readings? Mick

    2003 172 Cup (CS sticker)

    Anyone know anything about this as it has CS stickers in the back window? I'm actually tempted for this myself to replace the Laguna with but wondered if anyone knew the car and more importantly, its past? 2003 Renault Clio Standard Car 1998cc Petrol 172 cup (OE03 RWJ) http://bit.ly/RkI7WL...

    ESP / Traction control

    Needs CLIP time I'm afraid matey to say what's gone off or how best to proceed. It does sound like a general system fault though. Mick

    There are four glow plugs in total - one per cylinder. Note, these are not to be confused with the thermoplungers. Mick

    iMac 27... Prospective owner questions

    I've gone for the 3.1 i7 and will bump it to 12-16Gb RAM when I get it.

    iMac 27... Prospective owner questions

    DaFuq!?? So why can't they just give that in the dirt place then? Brand integrity BS gets my goat at times. Just got an i7 from that link with the 2Gb VRam and still came in cheaper! Cheers

    I'm not a student though. Won't they require proof?

    iMac 27... Prospective owner questions

    Decided to go new... £1350 used vs £1560 new is not a gamble I'm willing to take for such a pricey purchase.

    I knew you'd come here and shake that "I told you so" stick. How's your Omex? LoLz

    iMac 27... Prospective owner questions

    I'm with Dan on this, and its not like the standard IPS displays are terrible. I've got my eye on a 1yr old i5 machine with x2 Thunderbolts which he's asking £1300 for with 12Gb ram and 1Gb video but I've not ruled out new just yet. My nearest Apple store have just quoted £1649 for a new i7...

    iMac 27... Prospective owner questions

    I've got a friend that works for white square, they're a premium seller and he's spec'd pretty much that for me to. Just waiting on a price though but he said it'll be on a friends and family discount (bet it's still £1600) Mick

    iMac 27... Prospective owner questions

    There's loads of 2011 machines knocking about of varying specs and coming from a PC background I know very little so I'm after some opinions. Firstly, new vs used: Is there anything to look out for with these to avoid buying a used lemon other than damaged casings and dead pixels? (Not that...

    Cam belt failure 10 months after it was done

    The woodruff key only helps it doesn't make it entirely bomb proof as they can still sheer but, it's pretty essential. This is why I'm glad I'm not a tuner though... Standard is generally a lot more hassle free.

    Firstly, you should be fair to them and give them the opportunity to put it right.

    Cam belt failure 10 months after it was done

    It *should* have warranty but as with all things in life, it's not always that simple with some places. Be nice and if you've got paperwork, if they don't honour it, get ginger! I hit something in the road whilst driving a customers R26 after a clutch change last week so I called him and...

    New owner, now 172 won't start once warm???

    Take it somewhere that knows what they're doing... Guessing will get expensive and is unlikely to fix it. Mick

    New owner, now 172 won't start once warm???

    That's not CPS then and more likely to be CTS which if you've had changed should have sorted you out... Let us know. Mick Diamond Motors

    Airbag Fault - Please Help :(

    They are meant to be in burst proof packaging but have you ever seen an airbag go off of its own accord without an electrical charge? Most people that send them just don't worry or disclose that they are sending an SRS unit It's not right... But c'est la vie Mick

    Project "Cornerstone" it's called and O2 were dragging their feet back in 2010 on this (I did some structural design work on contract for them to make ends meet). It won't necessarily improve speed but it will help the two networks plug gaps in their coverage as they will essentially share...

    I thought that by law (uk) they have to make you aware an give you the option to leave if that's what you wanted as they're making changes to your terms Mick

    What voltage should the alternator produce when the car is running?

    It depends entirely on the load but normally, with everything OFF and the engine running you should see 13.8-14.4v

    New owner, now 172 won't start once warm???

    It's not "normal" for the CPS to fail at cold no. It is possible that the ECU isn't seeing engine rotation (due to a wiring fault maybe?) but to be sure you should get it plugged in and have the live data looks at. Specifically you need to look at the engine speed line whilst cranking. If it...
