    Resistors in the Pretensioner???

    After a lot of reading, think I have found out what I need - only thing is that I have snipped off the old connector (grey) as it was shot, and now I have 2 pink and 2 orange wires. Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiit

    Resistors in the Pretensioner???

    Hi all, I have been sorting the wiring under my seats today (annoying service and airbag light and pretensioner and seat position sensor fault codes) and have used the 3.3Ohm resistors for the airbag wires. I was just wondering if I can use resistors in the pretensioner side too as this will...

    Ebay matched inlets - any good?

    I recently had my head skimmed, ported, polished and had the inlets matched (cam belt skipped and a mate sorted a good price for the head work) and have to say the only difference I have found is that it is a bit revvier. After it was done, I fit a decat pipe and the difference that just the...

    Decat Question.....

    Ive got the lambda in the decat. I bought one of the spacers so you still get a valid reading, maybe a little diluted, but the mpg is pretty much the same, around 35mpg.

    Decat Question.....

    All sorted, some heat and a burned leg later and it spun out. What a difference a decat makes....... The noise on idle is the same as previous with my stainless system, but when you give it some beans the noise is unreal. It revs sooooooo much better through each gear too, gets down the...

    Decat Question.....

    Hi I've just popped a decat pipe on and have a couple of questions: Do you still use the donut gasket? (I have) I haven't used the spring loaded bolts, I used some bigger ones that came with the decat. Is that OK? How the hell do you get the o2 sensor out of the old cat??? Cheers

    Aux kit fitted, now the car wont start

    Yeah it is getting replaced. My friend (a mechanic) originally just changed the tensioner on the aux pulley. I think that this might have caused the waterpump and a few other parts to s**t themselves. I have got a new genuine aux kit and Gates timing belt kit to go on as well as a new...

    Aux kit fitted, now the car wont start

    To be honest there wasnt much that came off the belt, literally half as thick as a piece of string. When I have taken the head off, I found the timing belt tensioner did not take the tension off the belt, so I am assuming that this has caused problems, or that the bearings in the water pump...

    Aux kit fitted, now the car wont start

    I installed a new aux belt, pulleys, tensioner etc today after the previous one shredded a little bit. I have gone to start it and it makes a whirring noise, but wont start. I have checked the alternator, the timing belt looks ok and is turning when you try to start it. Has anyone had this...

    182 Cat to Exhaust Manifold Gasket Too Big

    Hi, Had a bit of a blow coming from my cat, on inspection there was no car fitting kit, just a mix match of bolts and washers, so I got a fitting kit. The old gasket was sat nicely in the cat, flush and flat. I have put the new one in and was advised to tighten the cat and manifold together...

    Any ideas MicKPM? Steering angle sensor? Speed sensor?

    Help! Traction Control is Mental...

    Mick, I have no idea what you just said haha. A mate scanned it for me, so I cant just re scan it unfortunately. What I have noticed this evening, is that the traction control light comes on as soon as you touch the steering wheel, even a tiiiiiny bit. Does this point to a steering angle sensor?

    Help! Traction Control is Mental...

    There are no direct codes relating to traction control. There were some for ABS but I put on new front ABS rings, wheel bearing and cleared the codes and no ABS light now.

    Help! Traction Control is Mental...

    They are the 44 teeth rings, def the right ones. Ive just noticed that if I start the car, there is no light, but just turning the wheels while stationary brings the traction control light on. This is getting weirder.......

    Help! Traction Control is Mental...

    Anyone? Really pissing me off now. The light is off when you start the car, but as soon as you start to move, the traction control light comes on. I have played with the brake pedal switch to no avail (so could be faulty) but havent had a look at the rear abs rings - could the rears be...

    Help! Traction Control is Mental...

    Been scanned but the abs light has gone off after I fit 2 front abs rings and a wheel bearing. Other codes des were for the map sensor And airbags. the traction control light only comes on when moving. When idle or after turning on the ignition, the light is off

    Brake Pedal Switch Cause Traction Control Light?

    The front 2 were cracked. Ive managed to sort the ABS faults and the light is of now, but its just the reaction control. At idle, when you start the car the light is off, but after a second or two of driving, the light comes on. Doing my head in ha

    Help! Traction Control is Mental...

    Got a 182, few little issues. I've replaced the ABS rings and front wheel bearing. I've also reset the brake pedal switch but the traction control is being weird. there is no light when parked or stood still but as soon as you pull off it comes on. Anyone else had this happen? thanks

    Brake Pedal Switch Cause Traction Control Light?

    Hi all, Just working through some issues I have and have been reading previous threads and was hoping I could get a definitive answer really. Could a faulty brake light switch be causing the occasional ABS vibration and the traction control light to come on? Thanks
