    Steamy exhaust - possible fix??

    H2O is a by-product of petrol and air being ignited. Unless you sit at 7000 RPM for about half an hour, you wont get temps up high enough at the end of the exhaust to clear the water completely that's in there already. If, as you say, you're not losing any water, then worry not. Wait for the...

    Setting up Wii to Onkyo amp

    Which amp ? The one up from mine (608 i think, to my 508?) does upscaling of things like the Wii.

    Really Really Need Help :(

    You work for an OEM but you took your car to Halfords to get them to replace a bulb ? LOLZ. Common fault.. the fog lamp shouldn't be illuminated on the cluster at the rear anyway. Get a friend to press the brakes and you stand behind and check. You'll notice it does it more when it's wet...

    tyre gel

    http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/wheels-and-tyres/chemical-guys-new-look-trim-gel/prod_143.html I've had a bottle of this for over a year now, ~1/5th of it has been used, and over the summer it probably did 3 or 4 cars a week. Tyres and trim too. Make sure you get one of the foam applicator...

    10 previous owners??

    If you now find out that it's been written off / doesn't exist .. what are you going to do ?! If you go to sell it, the 11 owners and HPI fail will put 99% of people off...... Just enjoy it, and learn to HPI cars in the future BEFORE you buy them haha !

    I think its time for the clio to go.

    If you had to get a loan, you couldn't technically afford it..... If you buy another car, you'll be worse off due to 2x tax, insurance, MOT, tyres, servicing etc etc, AND then left with two cars that are worth nothing in 2012 instead of one. Just put this idea to bed, go out for a blat late...

    I think its time for the clio to go.

    £1680 on insurance ? Holy frik on a stick. :dead: Get a better insurance quote ? Get a job closer to home / better paid ? Straight swap for Sash's dCi 100 ? Man up and deal with it !? Have you worked out how expensive houses are ? Unless you're barrelling into your 40s, stay at home for a...

    Windscreen

    It is fab stuff. Make sure you read the instructions properly and do it right, or it can leave a haze on the screen looking like you've never cleaned it haha :o

    Windscreen

    Glass cleaner should clean it off .. if it's really crappy, something like AutoGlym's engine de-greaser spray stuff (purple label) might get the stubborn stuff off. That's waterbased so should be safe. My best bet is that your current (old?) wipers are just that .. old, and dirty. Clean the...

    'Oil Ok' on trip computer

    My Ph1 one was bang on the money when I changed the oil. The level was identical to the one on the dipstick as i finished topping it up. Was rather impressed TBH. The dash display did one day remember that it's French and told me there was no oil in the engine, and it didn't like the drive to...

    MacBook screen replacement - Help req'd please !

    Macbook (2008 unibody 13.3") has got some marks on the screen .. maybe screenburn but not sure, as it's only noticeable when the screen is black. :dapprove: I've found replacement screens on the net for ~£80 and guides on the net of how to replace it, but it looks like a royal ball-ache to...
