I'll go about getting that on charge asap then! Thanks again!

Thanks for your help mate. God knows where I'd have started otherwise!

I've left the car just as is for the moment as I was out of time today. I left it off charge mainly to see if the battery dies any more as its lost voltage since I last checked it 2 days ago. When I go back to it, I'll test it to see if the battery is dead or not. If so, I'll take it off and...

I'm gonna google which wire that is lol. I also have another weird theory I just read about. My connections are quite oxidized. I wonder if when I reconnected the battery after changing the steering wheel if it's not making a solid connection and therefore draining? Is that possible?

I dont think I did. But the car just died as soon as the battery pack ran out of juice anyway.

Okay so. Went back to check the car today and found something interesting. The car was totally dead. Remote key fob didn't even unlock it. Manually unlocked it - of course the alarm worked through. Sigh. Once I got the battery pack attached and stopped that I ran the car for a bit (still with...

Damn it. I had a feeling it could be that. That was my next guess. Alternator change could be fun. Bloody cars!

Battery is showing 11.5 volts. I'm gonna run the car with the battery pack on and see if I can get the alternator to charge it up a bit

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
