    Front Window Wipers not working - Help needed

    First thing to check with anything electrical is the simple things .. is the fuse intact ? If so, does the relay click when you move the stalk ?

    Cheap Insurance ??

    The only way to know is to call companies up and beat prices out of them. Don't use meerkat websites.

    extreme loss of grip/control when turning left

    What are the tyre pressures ? What do you mean 'the wheel is lower than the others' ? Do you mean the body is sitting lower relative to the top of the tyre on one corner compared to the other 3 ?

    Cheap Insurance ??

    Being old FTW. My insurance is 1/100th of what Jjay can get insured on my car for ! :o

    Cheap Insurance ??

    Every single person is different. Call every single company you can and get the best quotes directly from them. No one here can begin to guess what any company will quote you, especially with zero information as above.

    SE Detailing bods - Borrowing a PDG ?

    I'm not worried by that car at all.. It's a 56 plate OAP mobile (Honda Civic) which he's just aquired .. it has probably never been over 2500RPM in its life, let alone out in the rain. I just want to know what I'm doing with a PDG before I buy one and realise it was a waste of time... I...

    Carlack Glass sealing Kit

    Got 9 month old G1 on my bus. Anything over 40mph and woooof it clears away at warp speed :D Made the mistake of spraying some 'windolene' or equivilent on the screen to clean it once as it was hanging.. It then poured and I had to have the wipers on all the time even in light rain...

    SE Detailing bods - Borrowing a PDG ?

    Err.. I don't necessarily need one. Are they really worth it ? I spose to answer my own question, ask the man who's just shelled out to have a bodyside resprayed... I've got a colleagues car over the Jubilee weekend (1-4 June) so if you don't need it for a couple of days, I'd be very...

    Does anyone in the SE (or anywhere else willing to post one out :o) have one I can borrow ?! Thoughts of those who use them regularly would be ace..: Are they worth it ? Has it ever saved your bacon !? I know they're useful .. best to be safe than sorry etc.. I'm sure it's best to check...

    Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner So as this is basically 80% Porsche now, when will you be fitting the boosted flat 6 in the boot ?

    I don't understand what the title has to do with the thread as you say you didn't ever want to put them on your car... :S

    Is this a normal drop in next years insurance?

    Until you have a claim and end up walking to work :S I'd go FC for the sake of ~£70.

    New sound system. (n00b)

    I've never found anything that touches my top end Alpine.. and that includes middle/low end Alpine stuff too. Each to their own tho :o
  23. TheEvilGiraffe

    New sound system. (n00b)

    I'd say no. Once the low stuff is sent to the box in the boot, the fronts are actually pretty damn good!
  24. TheEvilGiraffe

    New sound system. (n00b)

    There's a thread like this every few days in this section. Decent top end Alpine HU and a sub in the boot. All you need. Plenty of change too !

    Removing proper dirt/crud/tar/concrete?

    Snowfoam/TFR. I'd probably: APC through a snowfoam lance. Shampoo through the lance. Pressure-wash the lot off. Wash with some decent shampoo/mitt. Tardis/Iron-x then clay... then correct/seal as you wish.

    Mk3 on nervasports

    It amuses me that the spacers are wider than the wheels ! Do these come in anything wider than 3" !? :S The contrast of sharp wheels / curvy body lines works. This is why F1s don't work on Mk2 Ph2's but they suit the Ph1's so well ! :o

    Wrong profile tyres... 40s instead of 45s ?!

    Real 172 ?! Wheel offset looks hilariously narrow :S

    Losing 2k in a month?

    Silly question but do you ever take it over 3000RPM ? I had a family member's Jazz which had 2k on the clock when I got it and it was the slowest thing I'd driven in a long time. I put a thousand miles on it and gave it merry-hell (when warm, I'm not an animal ;) ) and when he got it back...
