I don't panic. Once my fuel is gone I put more in. If I was bothered about fuel economy I wouldn't be running 3 cars, 2 of which are V6's.

I've put £280 in my car in just over 3 weeks. Glad I'm using the "economical" Clio and not my vectra at the moment.

209500 on my 172.

Put the window down just now while driving and there was a snapping sound then the window just fell into the door. Tried the window switch again (stupidly) and the window hasn't moved but the mechanism has come up out of the door. What's involved in sorting this and fixing it? Easy job or...

Anyone shed any light on the O2 faults? Car is de catted if that makes any difference.

Wish people would stop worrying about cold air feeds etc. It's been proven that they make zero difference.

I'll be coming to this. See you there.

Battery clamps are tight as a ducks arse. It's the pressing on the fuse box to correct the fault that's puzzling me. Any other ideas?

Every so often I turn the key to start my car and all the electrics just completely die. Open the bonnet, press down on the fuse box, indicators flash, needles dance and everything works again (although it does reset the clock, stereo settings and mileage info etc). It was a once in a while...

Quite annoying waiting for 3 to show their prices. Hopefully they'll have a better selection than with previous models too. Only ever gone up to 16Gb versions which is no good.

^^^^this^^^^. You lose the ability to flash your lights if you have them fitted to main beam and the constant on/off burns the bulbs out quicker.

It was on eBay yesterday.

Ok thanks for the help.

Re: Bit a boulder, gears are stiff and emission light on. Easy fix if it's damaged?

Just got back in from work, on the way home there was a rather large rock in the road that I didn't see due to the car in front of me. Went straight over it and it's smacked something under the car really hard. Now, it's difficult and stiff to change gear (although all gears are still...

Bummer. Can't get the day off for this. :banghead:

If I can get the day booked off I'd like to attend if there's room. Been going to these for 4 years now but with VVOC. Be nice to meet a few of you.

And after a quick bit of searching............. http://www.barryboys.co.uk/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=30395 Seems this thing has been round the block more than my ex. Funny how it's now got a 182 engine in it when the original conversion was a 172 engine, (DVLA still have it registered as a...

There's huge gaps where the panels join and the NSR alloy is different to the other 3? That car deserves to go on barryboys.

Oooops. Ran out of talent a bit there.

Got a full prospeed system on mine. Came with the car so wasn't my choice. Looks ok, sounds really nice, we'll see what it's like on Monday when I fit the decat that came with it.

Cant to understand why eBay states it sold for £875 cause that's not what I paid for it, nowhere near. To be fair, apart from the few dings to the body work, the car is in tip top shape. Got a folder containing thousands of £££ worth of receipts. It's been well looked after. Interior is in...

How's the KTP-445? Looked at getting myself one of these a while ago but never got round to it and the reviews I read on it weren't that good.

Youre a star. Worked. You can have the use of my wife for a night as a thankyou. :hail:

Ok, tried starting the car again after work tonight following the advice I got but no joy. Popped open the bonnet, checked connections and checked the fuses/relays were ok and sat correctly. Car fired up straight away. Only problem now is, as soon as the car starts, my headlights come on. Turn...

Cheers I'll try that. Was a bit of a pisser. Car has ran fine in the 9 days I've owned it. The first time I NEED it to work and it doesn't.

Anyone?

Got in the car this morning to go to work. Turned ignition on, immobiliser light didn't go out, car wouldn't start. Tried a second time and the immobiliser light went out but still nothing apart from a lot of clicking from the dash and all the dash lights/interior lights and indicators flashing...

Yeah. Been playing BF4 online all day.

Working fine for me.
