Done a couple of jobs i have been putting off for years too, for no reason apart from being lazy. O.e rear speakers were totally past their best, so stuck in some pioneer replacements that i bought at least 5 years ago ! Ten min job that i never got round to. O.e cone split Also the seatbelt...

Late update, Give the gtt a clean up for Retro Show at Santa Pod on the Sunday. Had some Angelwax products in stock, so 2 bucket wash, prepped and a coat of aw desirable wax. Came up nice, cleaned and dressed interior trims, basically got as much done as i could in 4 hours as time was tight...

I dont think most mot testers will like the zip tie and tape, see what they say i guess.

What code reader are you using ? Generic obd scanners dont usually show much

Not keen on the zip tied flexi hoses mate, id go back to standard hoses that fit properly. I too had issues with braided flexis catching the strut on full lock on the Kangoo, decided not to use them in the end and stayed stock.

Get clip on it faults will be stored. At a guess its throttle body or wiring to it

Twingo turinis are 15” but only 6j from memory

Agreed heavy as feck, on the plus side seem fairly indestructible on our pot hole ridden roads !

Looks great, the recaros are a great upgrade too.

Good choice of tyres too, and not sure if placebo but acceleration seems slightly better

Cheaper tyres.

From memory, one piece is something daft like 2000calories. Impossible to do in one sitting :LOL:

Good cars, engines are bulletproof. My x had one that had been a taxi, had 300thou on the clock and still run mint. Rest of the car was fucked lol.

No worries at all mate (y) just collar me at some point as ill most likely be doing the rounds talking to everybody haha. Looking forward to Blyton, its looking like it will be the last trackday for the Kangoo before it goes to the new owner.

Mine pops a bit on overrun on stock map, however its got no cat & single silencer system. Get the occasional bang on the high rpm upshifts when its hot.

Check the steering column is not worn out, they have a bush like the old valvers used to that can wear, somebody had the same issue a while ago

Ill bring my laptop & clip mate?

To be fair, they sound good as stock. I went out in one many years ago, loved it

Do it, the v10 sounds great with less silencing

Its knackered, change it.

They do have a hissy fit when parked up. The temec broke on ours when it had not been out, the garage for 6 month, first night out and the window fecking sticks down !

Temec module is knackered. Happened to me recently, double locked on total closure and window went down instead of up! Would not go up, had to strip the doorcard off and wedge glass up. No corrosion in the wiring plugs or nothing, module just broken.

Love it, colour looks awesome

Picked up a Snes cheap and local lastnight off fb. Starwing is s**t, cant even remember it tbh haha ! Bought a few cheap games off ebay, streetfighter 2 etc. Reliving my youth :LOL:

High leakoff can cause a non start, this always starts but takes a couple more cranks from cold. Ive noticed 2/3 clicks of the ign before crank and it fires up fine, so may be a glow plug or 3 off. Ill do them and get this code off and go from there.

I can imagine no control of the boost pressure at all when cranking it up with that pissy little hole behind the w/g penny. Still quite a way to go until the lower end ching stuff compares to garrett. The mamba stuff looks ok, but not cheap !

Quick update Blue dci had a black mirror on the N/S, ordered a cheap 2nd hand replacement off ebay. Bit dissapointed as they sent a shite one which clearly was not the one pictured as has no external temp sensor in and cracked. I never expect brand new when buying used parts, but some places...

Quick update Washed Kangoo after Croft to get the shite off, jacked up and give it a once over, no issues to report. Changed brake pads over to ds2500 for road use, as the mintex are terrible from cold so not suited to road use. Feel like blocks of wood lol. Mintex m1177 look like they have...

Cheers mate, Its been cavity waxed by previous owner and had some coating sprayed underneath. I removed a bit of it and painted a few areas with Por15 a few years ago, needs topping up now though. Ill probably use Dintrinol this time, will keep you updated. If somebody can hook me up with an...

Indeed, some must be decent quality its just a gamble which one. I know a few people who have made loads of power on ching spec turbos on the hondas, treated them as disposable as so cheap compared to a garrett or similar.
