    Deleting Songs from iPhone Issue

    Ok...after some more playing around the sync settings and the order of deleting / syncing / resetting I have solved it, I think! It's connect phone and switch off sync music. Then sync. Then swutch on sync music, select what you want to be sync'd and then sync. No idea how I managed to get this...

    Deleting Songs from iPhone Issue

    Having issues with deleting songs on my iPhone 4s, running iOS 8.2. I have no playlists or music to be syned in iTunes, so there should be nothing on it. But somehow there are a few albums that are stored "on my device" when I plug it in which sync. I delete them on the phone, but when I plug...

    Radio Surround Removal??

    Is it really impossible to get this part out? reading through threads and apparently it is a dash out job, has anyone thought of an easier way of removing it? I want to tidy up the interior and just re-paint the trim, in black and nothing tacky!!

    Kit's Ph1 172

    Finished my rear wiper blank.....aka the original plastic surround, painted in satin black and a blanking grommet glued in place! Looks a lot cleaner without the rear wiper I think. Good simple mod. Next is the front bumper being painted. And currently investigating what coil overs to...

    Turbo like noise on starting

    Turned the car on this morning and as it came into life there was like a turbo noise then went away. Didn't make it again all day, even when starting from cold after work at 4:30 this afternoon. Any ideas?? I am going with that it was the cold air and cold engine not helping. Never heard that...

    182 Miles

    I'm about to top 160k miles and its still going strong, I've done 30k of those. I do maintain it though with regular services and it had its belts done last year. Car is in good nick, all but the front bumper which needs a re-paint. Engine is fantasic and still returns 40+mpg

    Kit's Ph1 172

    Weekly clean today, but now it is raining, oh well I know it was clean at some point this week! The amount of cleaning and effort is paying off as it is now really easy to clean as the dirst isn't thick or stuck to the paint work. Have noticed my front wheels are taking a battering and the...

    What have you done to your car today ???

    Cleaned out the green gunk from under the boot lid / roof join. Was quite rank. No idea why I didn't do it before.

    Bonnet won't open..

    Same problem on mine a while back. Two person job to open the bonnet as previously said, or I fasioned a piece of string to the release lever so I could pull it while lifting the bonnet. Fixed it when I took the latch off and cleaned it up with a bit of WD40 and then just repositioned it.

    The Fatty's KTEC alternative induction setup that works just as well!

    How have i not seen this before??! I want to get something to add more BBRRAAAAPPPP until I can afford throttle bodies and cams. This maybe a stupid question...but.....will it work with sillicone hoses instead of the ally one? Or is there a reason to go for the ally? As I am not a fan of the...

    Normal Opperating Temperature??

    Annoyling I had a thermostat to change yesterday and me and my step dad decided against it as it didn't look like it needed doing. Should have just done it!!!

    Normal Opperating Temperature??

    Nope. Before and after I changed it, it was steady. Rose when you expected it too when stood still. Before I changed it it read half way when up to temperature

    Normal Opperating Temperature??

    Fitted a new temperature sensor yesterday as my gauge cut out when it got above half way. But then when it cooled below half way it would kick back in again. Just drove 90mins down the M4 and this is how hot it got, is this normal? I haven't got it hot yet, like stood in traffic for a while...

    What have you done to your car today ???

    Fitted a new temperature sensor. Hopefully the gauge works now!

    A33, Junction 11 of M4 in Reading.

    Followed me out of the turning for Grazley Green, up the A33 towards J11 M4 and then turned right to Thre Mile Cross / Spensers Wood. In a 2004 (I think) Black 182, gave me a toot as you passed.

    Fitting recaros to 182

    I used a 3.3ohm resistor to turn my air bag light off when fitting my bucket seats. Me being OCD would have done the reprogramming but then if you want to put the car back to standard then it is easier just to remove the resistor, thats what the thought process with mine were. Same with the...

    What was the first thing you did to your Clio?

    Removed the stupid Lexus style rear lights so people at Llandow the following week didn't judge!

    Plasti Dip Entire car - results

    How did the dip cope with wear and tear of daily life? As at that price I could so easily be tempted to do mine if it is durable enough to last a few years. The finish and colour of yours is real nice, I do like it

    What have you done to your car today ???

    Had to change a bulb in the pitch black this morning. Very tricky to do it one handed and hold a torch in the other!

    Towbar for a bike rack (yes I am going to get abuse for this!)

    That does look quite tidy tbh. Then just fit the bike rack to that? Presume it is simple fitting? Remove the rear bumper and bolts onto the subframe? Then somehow magic the electric together? (They are not my favourite thing to do!)

    How long roughly do rear brakes last?

    Just had a look at them and the edge of them does look quite coroded and not like the front, so I think this is the case and will fall apart before they need replacing! I think I read somewhere that it was 95% to the front, not sure how true that is. Next time I am working on the rear I may...

    How long roughly do rear brakes last?

    Yeah I knew this, the calipers match my wheels if its been stood still over a wet weekend! But I am sure it is getting louder and takes longer for it to wear off. Don't think they are binding, wheels are cold to touch after a long drive, fronts can get a little warm if driving around town with...
