Ebay, can`t recall the seller.

I dismantled mine (4 pieces), and wrapped the chrome look bits it in a carbon fibre look vinyl. Cost me £4 and looks great.

If you use wheels from an early 1 series Freeloader, they are actually the same pcd as Jap stuff. By coincidence I have a set in my shed I sold about a month ago, but the buyer has made no effort to collect them. So they could be for sale in a month or so.

So have just plugged in a generic fault finder, there are no stored faults / messages. I guess I just have to wait to see if anything else happens?

Fuel filter changed for genuine very recently. EGR has blanking plate installed. If I plug it in to a diagnostic terminal, should a fault have been stored?

Hi all. Was just returning home, and my car promptly decides it will not rev past 2100rpm. Below this it has almost no power. The car had been running (started from warm), for about 3 minutes. I have no warning lights, and madly enough, as i reversed into my driveway, the rear parking sensor...

I have Coopers on my summer 17s, very pleased. Made by Avon (in case you did not know), and a few quid cheaper.

Just get budgets, there is precious little difference, and little point in paying more, for premium winter tyres.

That is a great price, good find.

Cheers guys

Thanks for the input, guys. Have now run the car from cold, with heating / aircon switched off, there is no difference in noise. My thoughts are turning towards a fuelling issue. Have been thinking of getting Fahad to cast his magic over it with a little tweaking, so this could improve...

Hi all. I have a problem with a noise from cold; Facelift 7th Gen Seems to be getting gradually worse, but is not consistent. A kind of old school diesel rattly noise on light throttle / low revs, getting less as the car warms up. Today I have done the cracked exhaust manifold check (as I...

Yes, I had the S6 (the semi skimmed RS6, with the V8). A lovely car, but got expensive when the passenger footwell flooded, as there are several electronic bits there.

That looks great, I love the white. Must put an 8th gen touring on my Christmas list. B)

You will certainly see the difference with winter tyres. I work in the tyre trade, so we always put them on our vans. I have just put them on my Accord, so, in one way, am looking forward to some lousy weather. I use Coopers, (as we are a main dealer, and I can get them for peanuts), but you...

Excellent contribution, well done. Although it still looks far too much like hard work for me!

Definately well overpriced, even if you can get a few hundred quid off it, it is still silly money for that.

The upper display not working is probably just a loose connection. It is actually quite easy to get it off (I had to take mine off to paint it). There are 6 clips, probably a guide here somewhere.

I did a brake upgrade on my MR2 track car. Just bought yellowstuff pads, and changed the fluid for high boiling point. You can hammer them all day, on sticky track tyres. The point is, there is very little to be gained, for road use, by fitting, and adapting expensive brake parts. Although I...

Yes, mine had the 16s, has the roof rails, the Sat Nav, and I can`t seem to get the bluetooth going! Also the DVD player does not work.
