    Running problems - Wont rev under load. HELP????

    Could be a number of things. Can you get it on a reader ? Spark plug 3 is normally the culprit if it's a proper mis-fire. Odd that it does it under load only. Take the inlet off and VERY CAREFULLY remove the HT's and then the sparks, one at a time. IIRC, the French do things...

    Ice Cream Sandwich.

    Yes I do. That's a video of me ! :o Jelly Bean is still working fine for me. Lots of little tweaks that I'm noticing. Only thing I've changed is the keyboard back to how it was. They changed it so it predicts your next words, which annoys the crap out of me and also means you have to...

    Roof scratches/marks/lines

    Detailing Chat & Questions Thread

    Re: The Stupid Car Cleaning/Detailing Questions Thread.. Cheers boss, as I thought. Are any of those types of "lifetime" seals actually any good if done properly or are they all applied incorrectly by the receptionist at the stealers so they last for about a week !

    Detailing Chat & Questions Thread

    Figured we might as well combine all the silly questions into one thread. :o I'll start ! Colleagues car is a 58-ish plate Nissan Qashqai thing in dark grey. He's been asking me about it as he knows I dabble in DAing etc. He's managed to swipe some hedges and has some scratches...

    Hand Snow Foam?

    Why not just buy a pressure washer ? You can get them for about £30 :S

    PHASE 1 - PHASE 2 front end swap

    Mk2 Ph1 has the rounded lights, like this: IMG_1020.JPG Mk2 Ph2 has the triangle lights - it's literally just a facelift - like this: Clean Monaco Apologies if I'm teaching you to suck eggs here but you seem confused what the variants are. Seems like an immense amount of...

    Electrical Fault. Info Needed ASAP

    Could be any number of things. Pauper spec low-RON fuel, dodgy sensor, surrenderism, general Frenchness... Needs a code reader on it really.

    What / where are the cheap tyres you've found ? Cheap and tyres are not a combination I'd ever like to make...

    Oh my !! Can I buy this with Sterling ? I don't have any MS points and Natwest don't want to give me an exchange rate.

    Incorrect EQ settings...or just a s**t headunit?

    What have you ordered ? I've not found anything to sound as good as my current 2004ish £300ish Alpine HU !

    Fuel going down quickly

    Yeah, as if you'd just filled up.

    Fuel going down quickly

    Swap the lambda's front to rear... reset the trip / mpg and see what happens.

    Keep the same car or get a new one?

    HTC Warranty Issue

    Phone them - demand to speak to a manager. Go mental at them. Tell them you're going to the ombudsman. If they still f**k you around, leave it. Report it stolen with your SP and have it blocked. It's a PoS - not worth the £25 to get it back !

    Quick speaker type question

    I'd get a set of components and put the tweeters on the a-pillars or somewhere similar. If they're by your knees, you won't hear them very well!

    Crashed my Clio yesterday :(

    Airbags will only go off if needed, i.e.: a sudden stop. Or just before the restart after a safety car.

    Crashed my Clio yesterday :(

    I accelerate towards birds. Pigeons are slow fat feathery rats with wings. I lift off for squirrels/cats and I'd do my damnest not to hit a badger (they're made from oak BTW, solid little b******s) but that's about it. Never swerve. You won't win.

    Crashed my Clio yesterday :(

    Good effort. I'd say 7/10 with a bonus point for style. Glad you're both alright. I agree on the rear of the Clio - A and B pillars always hold up well, the C seems to be made of fromagé in these things.

    Budget lowering kit

    Straight to the jugular, right ? Save the gene pool etc.

    Aftermarket HU Antenna adapter?

    There's two types of end IIRC. As stated, that looks about right. The other is much longer. Halfords do them anyway.

    Day of bliss - Played with the cars

    The widow makers are just awful dangerous PoS ! I wouldn't trust them with a £100 car, let alone the V ! Mine busted the first time I used it.

    Day of bliss - Played with the cars

    100% right. She's got the V up on a pair of widowmakers. MENTAL.
