Thanks Cribert. Kyle, I did say in my original post that I think it’s UCH. However, I’m not convinced it’s UCH because of water damage as it was fine before I put it in the garage and my garage is pretty water tight. Thanks though.

I’m calling it... there’s no way the UCH has got wet as it’s been in my garage for 6 months. However, I have had previous issues with the UCH before so... Does anyone know if the passenger window switch 12V supply comes via the driver’s window switch?

Also diagnosed the glovebox light as being a sticky switch.

Correction: 12V socket doesn’t work. Was a corroded contact.

Good day all, So... car has been in the garage for 6 months. I connected the battery and it started first time. Brilliant! Then, I went to drop the drivers window to push the mirror out and nothing! Drivers window is inoperative. Tried the passengers next and same. I thought “here we go”. I...

As title. Need airbag/service light off. From a quick search this seems the easiest way as I don't know where the 'fitting a resistor' thread is.

Ok. I have sorted the brake servo issue. When em you say carbon canister, where is that? Could I just blank it?

Where to? Does it go the the thicker nipple at the top of the manifold?

Ok. Would that affect my brakes too?

This is going to be repeated in faults section and the engine section just to increase my chance of getting the right answers. I have just takenky off an RS2 manifold and fitted the stick manifold. After doing so I have some issues. Number 1: The car is idling at around 2000rpm and...

I had the exact same thing mate. It was an injector. Easy to find out which one - just unplug them one at time. If there's no change in the engine sound then that's your culprit.

Thanks for the replies guys. I found one on eBay that was on my way down to Reading. Happy coincidence.

I know this is a bit naughty of me, and I apologise now. I have been out of the country for a while so didn't bother renewing my membership. That said I can't access the for sale section. I need my car tonight but I have a dead injector. Does anyone in the peterbourgh/Leicester area have one I...

Yes it does. Just thought I'd ask on here first.

You reckon that could be my engine problem as well?

First off I have an electrical issue. All started at the same time so.... The drivers window has stopped working, The interior light doesn't come on when its unlocked, The hazard switch operates fine but also illuminates the doors open lamp, The turn right indicator doesn't work, The normal...

Yes. It's all tip top with the engine off. I really can't be bothered checking this and that for issues. It's in the garage on Monday anyway. Thanks for your help though.

I agree. That's why I've not touched it. Just used the free knowledge available from you guys. Thanks to everyone who took the time to reply and help me.

So it's a garage issue for me then. Cheers

Could this be my problem then? Does the adjustable one need readjusting?

Nope. Doesn't jump forward. And yes. It pulls away fine.

No it doesn't creep forward. What's the common cause of this and what's the common fix? Yeah it has always been an arse but even more so now. It's grinds really bad into reverse but not the other gears.

Is there an idiots guide as to how to check these things? I read somewhere that to check if the clutch is disengaging I need to prop the front of the car up, put it in gear then depress the clutch. I understand that and I understand that the wheels should spin in gear and then not when the...

Sorry if I'm not supposed to post here but.... Ok. So my wife's car has an issue selecting gear. It is extremely difficult to engage any gear. The clutch feels fine. There's no grinding, only into reverse. With the engine off it goes in and out of gear perfectly. I think the clutch isn't...

60k = the best week of your life in Thailand. Obviously you'd have to post the pics, if you get round to taking any that is.

OK, thanks guys. I disconnected the box under the scuttle panel and the hazards still came on, so not that. I found the UCH, I disconnected the furthest awat connector and the hazards stoped. So I'm guessing its that. However, my indicators dont work with that disconnected. Is there any way i...

Right, I removed the wipers and scuttle panel and realised I dont know what the UCH is or where it is. I dont know what the siren is or where it is and i dont know where the alarm is. I remember reading about a triangle shaped panel which i took off whatever its attached to, then I unplugged it...

what is this uch? I read about that being a problem while searching for an answer. also wasnt there a temp fix? disconecting something? where do i find it and how do i take it out?
