Great job! And boy, what a machine!
-
Cheers Geo :lol:

It is. I think its the front sensor. It screws out, unclip it at the connection. Screw the new one in and clip it into the connector, job done. I'm not sure where there front one is though.

Firstly, big thanks for Terzo Neil for sticking his doo-dah into the car and diagnosing the reason for my CEL. The fault code is P0031 H02s Heater Control Circuit Low (Bank1 Sensor1) Neil informed me that there are two sensors; one on either side of the turbo but he was unsure which one. So, can any one tell me which one it is and the best place to buy said sensor? Many thanks, and thanks again Neil JW

Cool! When and where u at mate. PM me if u can thanks JW
-
Me neither. £45 to get the stealers to stick the monitor on it. Need to go tomorrow. The longer I leave it, the more chance of something going pop.

Dreaded CEL has come on and I was wondering if there is a garage I can just drop into as I want to get it checked ASAP. I'm in Glasgow and how much does it cost to have it checked? Cheers! JW

I'll lend yo mind mate if you don't wanna fork out for one
-
Thanks Kev. JAC, my coilovers are screwed. Tein Superstreet, need I say more? I have new springs to go on with the original shocks and he is going to fit them. I am off next week for a couple of weeks and keen to get it fixed
-
Two reasons: 1) I'm not so sure if he looks on here that often and I need to get a hold of him reasonably quickly; 2) I looked through the members and found craiddmcd. Notice the double D in the middle, so I'm not so sure that that is even him.

I have changed phones and managed to lose Craig's number. If anyone has it, could you PM it to me please? Thanks

Don't be ridiculous! Oil companies profiteering? That would never happen.
-
Same one as mine I dunno the extent of the damage though. I'll watching this thread to see if anyone else can sort them out cheaper and faster. It's a shame the same ones are gubbed... might have been able to get working set between the two of us. Oh well.
-
Very nice and about time too!
-
Same here mate. Freaking joke. Which one of yours is needing fixed? I have ordered a set of springs from Revolution and he also quoted me over £200 per shock - which is more expensive per unit that a new set. Foolishly enough, I have orded Tein springs

I was just taking the pee back Speed humps are ok as are calming schemes, within reason. I have seen both set up in tight streets with parked cars where it is impossible to drive more than 10mph anyway. One can clearly see that these measures are not borne out of safety, but are the product of surplus funds that are used up to enable some department or another to get more funds the following year. There are those huge square type lumps of concrete on some of the roads here and on those going past schools. The trouble is, buses can straddle them and do, and pass at silly speeds (for a bus). Also, the road that surrounds these humps are sinking and breaking up, in part because of shoddy workmanship and in part to lorries and buses straddling them. It's virtually impossible for me to pass these and if I do, I have to do so with extreme caution, if I get it wrong the underside of the car is dragging across them... I posted pics of underside damage to the car a while back on one of these. These measures are utterly senseless and help no one. In work if I don't crawl of the speed humps and brake on the way down, there is a sickening thud and the car hits them. It is getting to the point that the only road-worthy vehicle is a 4x4 and a big ass one at that, especially now global warming has becoming global freezing and we are going to get lots more snow in winter

I don't have kids, I have never tried to wipe out kids and I have never know anyone who has tried to wipe out kids. Now, deal with all the other points that were made and stop picking out an emotive instance and sensationalising it and trying to make me look the fool, I can assure you, I'm not

Where do you live? Beiruit????
-
The second part of your statement is the correct one...
-
LOL! And that!
-
Yeah, and a Scooby thats worth a few grand, when there all manner of exotic cars actually parked on the street as you walk pass. Whatever did car thieves do back in the day before they had out-of-date satellite images?
-
Whatever. It is slowly, but surely getting to the stage that driving a car is crime. In fact, the green-lobbying, tree-hugging brainless twits already tar motorists with that brush. It's getting to the point where driving the car is actually annoying; dodging speed humps, negotiating traffic calming schemes (that make me rage in actual fact - oh the irony), dodging craters (AKA potholes), checking tints, nervously looking down at the speedos in town, through cameras, through school zones, on motorways, measuring the distance between numbers & letters, making sure there is a kite mark, don't have a badge on your plate, EXCESSIVE fuel costs, congestion because the road network has not scaled with the development and growth of car ownership, reduced speed limits without warning (70 - 50s on motorways), etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. and ETC. Every time I venture into the car, my alert systems have to be on DEFCON7 for the duration of any and every journey. By the time I get from A to B I'm a quivering, broken wreck - a shadow of the man I was before I started the journey (being facetious for anyone with a sense-of-humour by-pass)! Getting off lightly??? I think NOT!

Will do

I ended up ordering the Teins from Revolution £199 in VAT

Yeah, I know. But without moving the space, the plate is meaningless. If they have it off me, so be it, it only cost £250. I don't get this dumb law; well I do, up to a point. Granted the letters have to be a certain size, a certain font and certain distance apart to comply with ANPR systems. However, not all plates comply with the XXXX XXX standard. I have seen plates containing as few as two characters on it - if moving the space along one is going to screw it up, then how does ANPR cope with these plates and thousands of others with similar (legal) designs?
