    window wiper fuse keeps blowing?

    Remove the nuts, spray some WD40 on the splines and walk away for 5 mins. I have a tool for removing them but this normally helps penetrate and free up the century of crap that seizes em up. Mick

    Battery problems help please

    It varies depending on what consumers you have on but at idle I'd like to see a min of 13.8v to 14.4v

    My engine sounds like its about to die :(:( Please help.

    Personally I'd have it transported somewhere to be safe. The pump is a good guess but I hate diagnosing from web video shot on a mobile. If you want an updated quote with collection added let me know. Mick

    Sexual wheels these. They always looked good in 17" on the Mk1's

    Major electrical problem, urgent help needed.

    Not really as loads on vehicles running multi-wire CAN work this way but if you aren't used to it the concept can seem a little alien. Easiest thing to do is put your DMM in to continuity mode. Put the negative/common line to a good bit of bodywork (to establish a good earth). Then put your...

    And MC never removes his helmet... Well, he does but you don't ever see his face.

    Major electrical problem, urgent help needed.

    That's one possible way to go yes but if you don't want it ("because race caaar") I can help you sort that... If you wanted? Mick

    window wiper fuse keeps blowing?

    The wipers control function is controlled by the UCH and you can't touch it as its soldered to the board. Check for signs of water ingress as its a common failure Mick

    window wiper fuse keeps blowing?

    You have a "short to positive" mate which is a live wire on that circuit touching metal. Firstly remove all the scuttle panel plastics and disconnect the multiplug to the wiper motor assembly. Here is where a DMM comes in handy as we use them to check for continuity but if you don't have one...

    Major electrical problem, urgent help needed.

    Yep, in that case then you have most likely killed the CanBus network but the good news is not permanently. I'm pretty sure that the main electrical earth for data services runs via the climate control panel and by removing it you've killed the earth. Do you have a decent digital multi-meter...

    Battery problems help please

    What's the alternator doing (output wise) whilst the engine is/was running as it may not be a battery fault?

    Halo - Forward Unto Dawn!

    It was okay and nice to see MS spending some cash. I still hope they make a feature length movie involving the Cheif.

    Major electrical problem, urgent help needed.

    Okay, I'm going to take a stab in the dark here.... It used to have digital heater controls yes and you've now removed it (Since then, wipers playing silly buggers and a 4hz flashing LED)? Mick

    Everything itbs management discussion..

    You need to think about what you want to do with the VVC to as you need to buy an ECU that can run it if you decide to keep it.

    Everything itbs management discussion..

    Just buy yourself a decent 2nd hand Emerald or Omex, DIY the loom and get it mapped. Edit - Sony TV's aren't what they used to be ;)

    195 or 205

    The phase 2 172 is 195/45/16 chap not 195/50/16. The ph1 runs a 15" wheel

    195 or 205

    Yep I've just refreshed all four corners on mine with 195/45's but I still had to check with Danny's clio trivia. If the car had 205's from factory though just bare in mind the electronics are configured for this size not 195's

    195 or 205

    Just remember that the 195 rubber will reduce your rolling radius and marginally effect your speedo reading by about 2% It can be changed via CLIP if you're really bothered.

    Feeling sluggish

    It may need a bloody good electrical check up to make sure the H02's, MAP, CTS, ATS are all doing there job correctly. Sometimes there's more to servicing than just changing oil and filters. Mick

    Airbag and serv light

    Jesus, honestly why would you bodge something like that? The light is most likely on because you've put seats in to the car with a different equipment level and the SRS ECM is seeing unconfigured hardware so is making you aware that the system is unable to work correctly. In short it needs...

    Clean IACV and Throttle Body - Done Just make sure you don't lose the seal for the IACV and that it goes back in right other wise the engine will race due to a leak. Mick

    Fake Aussie!

    LoL, I love the Aussie banter - They can be harsh at times but as long as you try to fit in its all fun. Next time one gives you s**t just ask him if his sister has both her arms or if she lost one due to sleeping accent involving a bowie knife. Clear side repeaters needed though ;) Mick
