I have damaged the bonnet switch and it is going off intermittently. Is there any way of locking the car without arming the alarm? Is there any way of bypassing that switch until I can get a replacement?
And can this be moved to the right section please.
To cut a long and boring story short after driving through a line of white paint along the side of the road this morning I got to work to find it was wet. :( All in the wheel arch, underneath, along the side and over the rear. Looks like it may be oil based, can't do anything about it now but...
I'm now the owner of some real rocking horse poop, some genuine Sachs rear dampers for the ClioTrophy :)[/URL]DSCF0361 by julzatthepub, on Flickr[/IMG]
Many thanks to Matt at Stealthsport for busting a gut to get these.
The 16k garage queen was looking crap after being out in some of the rubbish weather we have had and after it's first wash since thespring polish was not happy to find patches of really bad swirling and some deeper marks down the side. Now either my cleaning technique has gone seriously wrong of...
I have a good car cover for my 5 GT Turbo, it's actually a humidity controlled bag, but during the summer I generally don't want the hassle of it. Does anyone know where I can get one/some of those light plastic dust sheets that I have seen covering the cars in places like Flins?
A couple of months ago I thought I'd return a mates favour by "detailing" his car whilst he was on holiday. So 20 hours later, more than a hundred pounds extra on products and several coats of B.O.S. he had a stunning silver Edition 30.
Just been out to see him cleaning it, well done, but with...
I have been thinking about upgrading to a Canon EOS7D or even the full frame 5Dmk11 and clearly you can save a lot online but you can save even more by buying from dealers operating from Hong Kong for instance. Does anyone have any experience or know of any drawbacks to buying from these...
Spotted the car in the cattle market carpark this morning (friday 23rd) parked close by in the T although my first inclination to to park elsewhere as mine has been hit by a dirty rainshower:o
Also spotted you whilst I was cycling to Rokefest last bank holiday.
I've been asked this before and have just been asked again, do you have to use particular shampoo, can you use final finish, can you layer a wax over the top(is there any point?) Clearly you can't use any polishes etc i was just wondering how to keep it tip top during the washing process.
Thanks
Threequarters of the way through applying another layer of supernatural the sun came out strong and i discovered that the Aqua-gleam has given up the ghost and i hadn't managed to dry some of the car quickly enough leaving some darker marks.
I normally apply wax using my fingers, if i were to...
Ok i've just bought myself a heap for getting to and from work, the condition of the paintwork is pretty shocking so thought i might invest in a PC of some description and have a practise, so;
A/ is there a definitive guide on here in how to use one(i haven't managed to find it)
B/ what is the...
Going towards the M40 from Watlington at about 5.30 on sunday, you wouldn't have spotted me as I was In a mate's Mg thing:boring:
Also loads more RS clio's whilst i was heading south from Santa Pod, was there a meet?
A workmate is going to check out 40k 172 cup tomorrow night, apart from the obvious is there anything to look out for? The only thing i could think of was dampers. I realise this has probably been done to death but any help would be appreciated.
Up till now with my supaguard treatment the car has been resistant to bird lime, i've been thinking of stripping off what remains and going down the zymol route, but have been a bit worried by some of the recent threads. Are there any products that are more resistant to bird lime than others?
I've seen a picture, on here i think, of some kind of holder that you can lug both buckets around at once but have been unable to find anyone who sells anything like it. Anyone any ideas? Thanks.
I'm having to have my rear quarter resprayed because of a small paint run,. Can anyone tell me what the prep is for this kind of respray? Will they remove the supergard treatment(which is coming to the end of it's effectiveness) and small inperfections/tar beforehand or would i be advised to get...
Left the car in gear last night and forgot about it this morning when i went to start it with predictable results. Looks as though i will need a new bumper,its cracked. Does anyone know a decent dealer in the Oxford/reading area?:(
