Have you done them yet? I had black to start with, then changed to blue. But the blue may not suit a silver car.

Ok - the test is finished and i got 27.2mpg...................it was better when i took no heed of the mpg i was getting :o

I am doing a test this week, i put £20 in when the light came on on Friday. I am going to drive gingerly i.e. change gear at 2.5k and keep to 70 ish on the motorway and see waht i get doing that...........by the way i am already getting bored. Also i haven't really been doing myself any favours...

Mines a saloon mate.

I get between 23 and 30 miles to the gallon in mine, thats lots of short journeys and about 10 miles on the motorway every day (due to a bridge closure on the way to work!) some of the motorway driving is quite spirited though. Your tyre width is the same as mine 225 although mine are 17'' -...

I have 17x7 and a 40 offset, sits nicely in the arch with this set up, but it's much better after it was lowered.

Do you mean the premium sound system in the 8th gen? If so i am not sure if that system is available in the UK Heres a link to the Elliot Scheiner tuned system the yanks have (ELS) with ten speakers. http://www.panasonic.com/ELS_Surround/tsx.asp

No problem mate, glad to be of help:rolleyes: I thought the 7th Gen audio was dear but it's nowhere near the cost of the 8th Gen kit, although mine has no sat nav.

Hi Mate, The head unit is Panasonic (Matsus****a) and the speakers are also Panasonic. have a look on here Type S 8th Gen I am not swearing about panasonic - the name of the parent company has a swear word in it ...........lol

Many thanks for that link, it will prove to be really useful, I can get parts for my bike as well :) No problem - i got a few bits and bobs off them recently. really good service and very helpful if you need to speak to them.

No problem mate, for some reason the link i posted shows a 2.2 aerodeck, even though i put my reg in on the search............bizarre. Any way here is a photo showing the belt tensioner.

It will more than likely be you AUX belt tensioner bearing, the best way to see if it is that is to get an oil pen or a small pipe and get some oil on it (it's not easy to get the oil in with just the normal can) if the noise stops then it should be ok for a while, when it goes completely it...

Those stupid electric handbrakes are a total waste of time, the only reason i can think of for putting them on is to save space, i have driven a few cars at work with these - Audi A6, Vaux Insignia and a Renault Scenic. I found them all incredibly anoying and you have to put your foot on the...

Hi Mate, Alnug has a different car now so that must of been fitted a few years back, i am not sure if he moved onto his current car.

I used the Autoglym foam shampoo on mine and it did the trick. Note - we use vanish foaming cleaner in the house, i tried the Autoglym on a stain on one of our rugs and it did a better job than the vanish stuff ......;)
