Silly me!!!
It was my power cable to my amp, i put it under the door seal. But i did it years ago so its strange how it just started to leak. I've now removed my sub & amp.
My floor is soaked, I noticed it a few weeks back. I think it may have been due to the bad winter with all the snow, hence people getting into the car with snow on feet, but there is at least a litre or slightly more of water on the deck.
Whats the quickest way to dry it, everything is lifted...
On the front wheels I wiggled them and they had a slight bit of give moving them left to right, i'd say probably just under a mm movement, I dunno if that was just the steering though.
I have been getting a noise when I drive at 60mph its hard to explain it, I though it was the engine or exhaust at first but when I put my foot down on the clutch to lower the revs, the noise was still there.
I individually raised each side of the car and spun the wheels, all of them where...
At 60mph when the noise starts I put my clutch down so the revs dropped off and it was still their at those speeds. Could this be a problem with one of the wheels? Maybe a bearing? Its done 104,000 miles. How can I check, simply spinning each wheel individually and seeing if one is stiff?

But will take it down if someone makes me an offer before its been bid on.
I was driving today and when I went about 60mph the engine was roaring and the light came on again, I went faster and it cleared and the roaring sound went. But sometimes it does come on at 60, its intermittent. Ever since I've had the car its roared at about 90 but not at 60. Its not a mega...
The above isn't my car but the stop light, top left and the bottom middle light are the ones that come on and off. My car has been parked up for 2 months in a Naval dockyard. Maybe that has something do do with it. My brakes are fine, they are new, but not checked the level of fluid.
When I accelerate fast it comes on. Also from Portsmouth to Middlesbrough it was on. Sometimes when I slow down, it goes away but then comers back up when I accelerate. Also my last drive, it didn't come up once!!
Oil level is fine. Engine sounds different at 60mph its roary (loud).
Car...
I am going to have a look at my spark plugs, are there any guides? Just need to take one out to have a look as I think its knacked!!
Do they need torquing down? When I put it back in, I know I have take off the air manifold and sensors on it.
Thanks in advance.
I unplugged one ht lead at a time and 3 caused the engine to go even worse than it is now. One of them when I removed it and started the engine, was the same as if it was still in, changed the coil pack but it still had the same problem, I'm thinking its the HT Lead or the Spark Plugs.
Thanks
Oh I bet I can lol, might change them round tomorrow.
Got a 310 mile journey tonight on 3 cylinders, don't think the other one is working, thought it was the coil pack but it wasn't, maybe a lead or plug or the sensor, hence why i'm going to swap them around tomorrow as i've heard there...
Is it easy to do, where are they?
Think I might just leave them, as i don't know where abouts they are. But if its really easy and you can tell me then i'll be happy to have a quick go.
Is there anyway I can check it? Make sure its not loose or the connections are dirty??
It was a little intermittent today for about 10 minutes, car suddenly started to work then it went shitty again.
Just changed the coil pack and its still got the same problem. One of the ht cables that I removed didn't effect the endine at all, but the other three that I removed the enigine was worse. So i'm thinking its that HT lead or Spark Plug.
