So the plot thickens. Jump pack attached it sits and idles fine. Even revs. Took the battery pack off to take it for a drive and I get the SERV and TC light come on. Then it really starts throwing wobbly. The speedo dies. All dials go dead. So I turn off the ignition and I've just gone to get...

I'll go and take a look as I have a halfords locally. I'm also going to head over when I can and put a multimeter across the battery. It has been a bit of a sod recently. If I find the car starts fine with a jump pack then it's just the o-ring to fix. I'll probably test the injectors anyway just...

Its funny you replied to this actually as I just found your post and am in the process of finding a supplier for one. where did you get your replacement one from out of interest? On that particular hose, there are 2 o rings. Mine was the black lower one that split. Basically when i realised it...

Hi Folks, Im after a bit of help. My car was throwing a misfire code and flashing the EML every so often. The idle was fine and it drove fine but obviously I didnt fancy an injector failing on me in the middle of nowhere. So, I bought a second hand fuel rail with injectors from a working car...

It's my second one. Absolutely love it all over again. It's just such a good car all round. Great mpg on a run and then a flipping hooligan when you want it to be. Cant ask for more for the money!

I'm absolutely not a mechanic but just on the description, would it be something as chunky as a wishbone? Was described as light rattling

Too far for me I'm afraid. I'm in sussex lol. But there must be someone local?

Where are you based? Could get another member to sit in the car with you to see if that could help?

Good luck with the searching. I picked mine up from Eastbourne a few months back now. Depending on what you are looking for they do come up in our area. I nearly stopped looking when all I could find was cars from up north!

I'm between brighton and eastbourne too. Dont forget about me hehe

Seen a few reviews on detailing world. Seems like its decent enough for the money. Nothing to write home about. Worth a try if they're cheap though?

I'll give that a go Cheers!

Thanks for giving me a heads up on that. I'll check carpro out and see how they go. I think I like the idea of the sub box because it's a surprise. However, if you didn't reorder any of the stuff you got in the box, it's hardly worth it!

Just re-read this. What about it didnt you like?

From what I can gather, Waxybox has all but finished. Another couple have come up that ive seen. "becauseracecar" is one. Not sold on the name but the previous boxes look ok. In terms of what I want to try, its nothing mega complicated. New snow foams/shampoos, waxes and so on.

Hi all, I am new to detailing and just want to get my hands on a few sample products to see what I like etc etc. I have read hours and hours of reviews but I would like to actually try some products for myself. Alas, I have been considering a subscription box as a cheaper way (and more...

I have the Autobrite Direct one. My first snow foam lance so cant comment on others but its brilliant. Only slight issue ive had is that the metal fixing is beginning to cross thread the plastic bottle.

Alright guys. Ive got a titanium Silver 182 with what I would consider to be med - light swirls. Doesnt appear its been repainted at any stage. What colour CG Hex Logic pads should I be using?

Looking good! Thanks for the pics!

When I did a disk and pad replacement a little while ago, I reused the bolts no problem. Im no expert by any means but I went to K-Tech and bought all the bits and they didnt recommend changing the bolts. However, in my experience, when it comes to brakes, if its worth doing its worth over...

Hi Guys, Just purchased another 182 and just wondered if the previous owner was on here. The car is covered in cliosport.net stickers and has the card slotted into the air vent in front of the steering wheel. If you know who might have owned it, let me know! Cheers in Advance

lol. Im amazed he didnt reply with the second word being 'off'. Ill put a wanted thread up in the next few days. Or lurk in the shadows till something local comes up. Im in no rush. Thanks for the help

Thats exactly it. He needs someone who isnt aware. Unfortunately for him, this isnt my first rodeo so I know the costs. I've also had a cambelt snap on me and dont fancy that happening again. Its always hard to tell on how tidy it is on pictures. It seems tidy enough but not mint as such. If I...

No, I went straight in at £800. I said that I would come and view it providing we were in the ballpark. I agree though. These cars arent rare as such. Plenty around. That being said, most of them are a fair ride away

In short yeah. Also mentioning underside rust and rusted suspension. So assume that needs attending to. Mot in July.

Hes having none of it lol. He suggested we both save time and that I look at another car. Fair enough I suppose. I'm in no rush. I'll keep an eye out for something else. Who's got something for sale?

I've sent him the offer. I've said that I don't wanna be another *insert insult* and offer him money sight unseen. But that is where I'm thinking and if he wants to tango then I'll go see it this weekend. Thanks for the advice mate

So it was done 4 years ago. Just been confirmed.

Very good point lol. Judging by the listing it was done 4 years ago but I'm checking as we speak. It's the darker blue (not RB) I'm not sure what its called. Cheers for the price guide. Anyone else wanna give their opinion on price?

That's what I was thinking. He says it's only occasional crunch. But. I'm planning on visiting the track so that's hardly ideal. That being said, a refurbished gearbox is circa 250. But swapping them out isnt exactly fun. What would you consider to be a realistic price?
