    Iceberg Ph1 172

    [GUILDFORD] Lunchtime, Easter Sunday. You're my f*cking hero. Your antics away the Lido traffic lights made me proud to be a CS member. Actually, you're an utter c*nt. Almost taking me and my family out as you overtook a line of merging traffic to be first in line behind a road gritter was...

    I rarely win competitions...

    ...but I've just had a call to say I've just won a Samsung NX1000 in the January Opie Oils competition! :cool: No idea if the NX1000 is any good (it doesn't really matter, it's free!) but it could be a good opportunity to learn a bit about photography.

    IllumiRoom...

    Next-gen gaming is purported to all be about 'immersion'. Sony are opting for goggles, and if Microsoft can incorporate 'IllumiRoom' (proof of concept, using Kinect) into the next XBox, I have to confess, it'd be pretty fapping amazing. http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/projects/illumiroom/

    Good, cheap, entry-level Android?

    My mum's expressed an interest in a touch-screen phone of some description. I'm thinking it'd make a good present for Christmas, but don't want to spend too much on one, on the off-chance she hates it and leaves it in a drawer for years. It'll be used predominantly for email, phone calls, texts...

    Track rod end lock nut size? HELP!

    The previous owner or a garage have rounded the locking nut (the nut that locks the TRE to the track rod, rather than the nut that holds the spindle in the hub) on my n/s TRE. Can anyone let me know the size/ pitch of the nut? I have a fasteners specialist near me & will need to source a new...

    Advice for a n00b.

    I've recently run out of all of my usual products so wondered if you guys could recommend some products and techniques that would suit a budding 'hobbist' detailer? I'm interested in hard-wearing and lasting protection and I'm happy to top-up coats weekly, if need be. Sealants, glazes, polishes...

    Would you worry about these things on a track day?

    I'm going to Bedford GT circuit on 3rd Nov in my new-to-me 172 and I want to make sure it's tip-top before I go. In the last 3-4 weeks, I've replaced discs & pads all-round/ braided lines/ brake fluid/ air filter/ oil & filter/ spark plugs/ coolant/ ball joints/ reluctor rings. Well, as I've...

    Ph2 172 Xenon Headlight Adjusters

    Mine aren't working. Can anyone let me know how you get the buggers out of the headlight units? Look to be a twist-fit but didn't want to force anything! Or do I have to whip the bumper off and take the light unit out? Cheers for any info!

    Problems removing my front bumper...

    Tried to get the bumper off the other day and noticed that the bolts in the wheel-arches just keep spinning (the poxy clips that the bolts screw into appear to be broken!). Am I being a dimwit and not seeing an obvious way to access them from the top or is the only option to find a way of...

    Anyone in/ near Surrey that can help? Headlight Correction.

    ABS kicking in at low speed...

    Hi guys, Just bought my 172 and I've got a bit of a mystery: my ABS kicks in momentarily when I brake from literally any speed (5mph to 70mph). This evening, I've removed all of the wheels, checked all of the calipers, pads and discs and they all seem fine. Actually, all of the consumables...

    MBP 15" Value.

    I realise that the new MBP's are just around the corner, but what do you guys reckon on the value of barely-used, late-2011 (purchased late Jan 2012) MacBook Pro 15". Still has the remainder of the Apple warranty (obviously)? My thoughts are about £1100-1200... Spec: 2.4GHz quad-core, Intel...

    Point-and-click adventure games...

    Not everyone's cuppa Darjeeling, I know, but I recently bought Machinarium and Broken Sword on my iPad and have loved them both. Since playing through them, I've also noticed a bit of a resurgence in old-school point-and-click adventure games across platforms (Anyone seen how popular 'Double...

    iOS 5.1

    Irritated that the IconSettings toggles have been rendered useless by the latest iOS update (5.1). I'd forgotten how much of a long-winded ball-ache toggling on/off common settings is! For those that never used them, they were short-cuts to common system settings (wifi/ airplane mode/...

    Thunderbolt.

    I'm getting increasingly frustrated with my options for data transfer to and from my 2012 (late 2011 model) 15" MBP (no expresscard slot). I currently use a USB 2.0/FW-800 passport drive that I bought with my MBP but it's only 500Gb (all that was available in-store at the time) and is not really...

    Very hot MBP...

    My 2-week old 15" i7 MBP (running Lion) has an average CPU temp of 83 deg C (highs of 87) playing simple platformer Limbo? Is this normal? :S The bottom of the case gets *very* hot as well - too hot to touch, actually. :dead: I dread to think what it might be like doing some really intensive...

    Broken iPhone 4

    A mate of mine had offered me an iPhone 4 with a smashed front and back for beer tokens. Everything works but what ball-park figure am I looking at to fix it? Is it worth "beer tokens"?

    Anything I can do? HTC Customer Services and my Desire HD...

    Had an HTC Desire HD since March and have absolutely loved it. However, my ownership hasn't been completely trouble-free: In May, the GPS aerial failed to find any satellites. Under the 12mth warranty, it was returned to HTC, fixed and returned to me 8 days later. In June, the power button...

    Android Market Update

    What's New Download the .apk Copy the .apk to your SD card, browse to the file and install. It's a much nicer experience than the old Market but IME it's still a touch laggy on the Desire HD. Also seems inspired by WP7 (no bad thing).

    iPhone recycling

    Anyone recommend an 'Envirophone-type' phone recycler that gives the best returns? Just want to check before bothering with eBay. Wife's immaculate 4-month old 8Gb 3G seems to only be worth £140 on Envirophone and a similar amount on O2's website! :eek: Cheers for any help.
