I know VM have a fair useage policy , but in all honesty i've never been capped and i download hell of alot of films ;) . I can download a film in roughly 7 mins ( obviously dependant on seeds etc .... ) so that'll ding dang do for me :D
They are laser radar jammers not for speed cameras . Their real function is as a garage door opener so if you have one of those fitted and you haven't actually got a garage door that it operates you're pretty much fcuked . Even if you have a garage door that it operates you can be prosecuted for...
I'm with flux too . It's ok mate , i'll take your word for it . As for tyres Uniroyal Rainsport 2's . About 80 quid a corner fitted , brilliant tyre , especially in the wet :D
Inner tube ? Are we back in the 1970s ?? Obviously if your tyres gone flat in a week of being left standing you've got a puncture . Just take it to a tyre fitters and for about 8 quid they'll sort it .
Are you sure you've got that right ? Your insurance goes up if you've got OEM shocks and springs and goes down if you've got aftermarket suspension ? I've never heard anything like it in my life . :S
Another vote for the Skoda splitter here , looks oem , only 13 quid and piss easy to fit . Fcuk paying £120+ for something that'll probably break again .
I've been with Virgin Media ( NTL as it was back ) for about 10 years and never had a problem . I can honestly say in all that time i've only ever had about 5 days were i didn't have any kind of service due to technical issues . These problems people report must be area related as i know quite a...
It's suffering from the dreaded " melted steering wheel " ;) It doesn't say what condition the cars in , no side pics of the car so can't see if it's riddled with dents . If you pay your subscription you'll have access to the whole forum , therefore the cars for sale section . There's a BG 182...
It's right down behind the engine mate . Just pull the pipe down where you see the blue breather hose in this pic and where the hose ends you should be able to feel a small metal tube . Just push it back on . Thanks to whoever's pic it was a nicked ;)
I got my original recall letter back in 2008 and just ignored it , i've always kept it well lubricated myself . I got another letter on Thursday saying take it to a dealership immediately . So i bit the bullet this time and rang up and booked it in . The corrective action might only actually be...
Personally i'd steer clear . The seller also sold a 2003 plate 172 in June of last year . " Maybe " ( this is just my suspicious mind ) it's an accident repaired car , he repairs the odd car to sell on ?? I've just got a bad feeling about this advert , other than the poor grammar . Lots of...
Different in what way ? These are xenons in the pics . And the white adjusters are what i used to adjust mine . These adjusters are for up and down . I think there " might " be 2 more adjusters for side to side adjustment ? I can't remember off the top of my head now .
Why are they a tw4t to get to ? Adjust them with the white adjusters using an allen key . Don't quote me on this , it's been some years since i adjusted mine , but i'm pretty sure you have to adjust them with the ignition in the on position , if you don't they re-adjust themselves as soon as you...
I've had my Arctic Blue 182 since new , back in February 2006 . From my knowledge there were only about 10 unregistered 182's in the UK back then . It's on a 55 plate , if i'd left it a couple more weeks it would have been one of the very few 06 plate 182's . And i still love driving it just as...
Another vote for Uniroyal Rainsport 2's from me . That's what i'm been running on my 182 . They're easily as good as the Michelin PE2's , especially in the wet . You can get them fitted for about £75 a corner .
Have you got the rubber covers on properly on the back of the lights ? I took mine off and couldn't get it back on properly cos my hands are too big to fit down behind the drivers side light , i got some condensation and pissed about with a hairdryer and a tube , that didn't work . I managed in...
Do you know anyone with small hands ? i.e. a small child , nephew , niece , bros or sis . Don't just go asking random kids or you might start to get known locally as " Jimmy Saville " and get stones thrown at you and your house petrol bombed lol ;)
Well said :clap: . Cliosport is unbelievable at times . I see it all too often that someone will make a comment on a product , sl4g it off or recommend a product that they actually have no physical knowledge of but yet they're all too willing to give their opinions on . It really does beggar...
Either get yourself a Green air filter cleaning kit or get some Autoglym Engine and Machine cleaner , spray it liberally all over the outside of the filter , let it dwell a while then rinse out under a tap from the inside . Let it dry , then reoil it with some Green air filter oil .
It's not often i would read a thread this long from start to finish , but i have . You've done a cracking job there mate , lots and lots of hard work bringing your car back to its best and it's certainly paid off looking at the pics . I take my hat of to ya , well done :D Best colour for a 182...
I don't want to piss on your chips mate . But if it's an old battery and it's fully discharged , even after jump starting the engine and taking it for a good drive , it " might " not hold a charge again . You might be looking at a new battery . I had this happen to me back end of last year ...
Thats the first thing i noticed when i got my first 172 , how heavy the clutch was so was used to it when i got my 182 . Also how heavy the steering is . To be honest i prefer a heavier clutch and steering . I hate over assisted power steering that you can literally move with one finger , it...
Never been on the track so can't comment . For the road in the wet and dry they really do instill confidence when pushing on . The only thing i can say about the Rainsports is that the tyrewalls do seem a little bit softer , so i upped the pressure to 36 psi which made alot of difference . You...
The Continentals when i got my first 172 lasted 7500 miles . Replaced with Toyo T1-S's which lasted about 8000 miles , replaced with T1-R's , same about 8000 miles ( God knows why when i never really liked the S's , i think it was the price that swayed me at the time ) Michelin PE2's last about...
