  1. Cheers gregers, No, a very quite day as I had to work (nightshift), and it is my daughters birthday on the same day, so as you would guess, she comes first ;)
  2. Damn,,,,,,my whole family won rugby balls,,,,,,,,,,,,,lmao,,,,,,,,
  3. Hi steve, it could be anything from low fuild to faulty software, I think your best bet would be to visit a specialist gearbox repairer, you could try disconnecting the battery for 30 mins (do you have your radio code) as this sometimes resets the ecu's and it may fix the auto box ecu. cheers James p.s your engine is a 2.3 not a 2.4
  4. Try this, Clicky Here
  5. Well 21 again,, :16: ,,,have a nice day, :) :25: :2: :P
  6. e-mail sent Any good car parts shop will sort you out with the electrics if its for just a trailer or boat, a 12n socket and bracket is all thats needed maybe about
  7. Hi, yes vag com lead still available, Yes it will work with your X reg 1.9, NO software but a free useable download from ross-tech.com, for the full functions of the software you need to pay ross-tech cheers bigd
  8. Now that I have gone to the other side,,,,,(CITROEN PICASSO FORUM),,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, I think I should lose my mod privligies and seatkid would get my vote,,,,,,,,,,,,,, :rolleyes: :lol: ;)
  9. I forgot to add, no electrics with the towbar only the towbar and towball,,,,,,,,,,
  10. Towbar, for a MKI may fit the MKII (dont know for sure, but other towbars on fleabay say yes) it's 3 years old, some surface rust in places and the bolts, but a good wire brush will clean it up so say
  11. Gregers, you cant see the golf course very good from the water, just the heads of all the crowds, (thats my excuse, so sorry no invite :lol: ), So I phoned the dealers today, to tell him I was off work wednesday and I will come and get the x-trail, (signed paperwork saturday, car was being picked up from another branch and delivered monday at my local branch, collect car tuesday), only to be told the finance had fallen through and I cant get the car, so I am scunnered, my gal was financed with the same company, so in a right old tiff, I told him to stick it up his a**e, I still want a good used car, so after a little hunt around, I cant find a smallish 4x4, God what do I do know, went back to the original dealers site and found something I liked, its not 4x4 but has similar ground clearance like the gal, I have always like these cars, but the kids hate it, and with a little grovelling to the dealer,,,,,,,,what did I buy,,,,,,,,,,,,,Citreon Xsara Picasso, no leather or 4x4, but it will hopfully do what I need it to do,,,,,and the great thing is I dont need to change forums,,,,,,,,, :angry2: I know myself for the first couple of weeks, that I wish I had bought another cheaper x-trail or crv, but the kids will learn to like it,,,,45 to 50 mpg, new car tax band makes it
  12. Hi gregers, yes its great, I usually go up to arrachor and fish in Loch Long and Loch Goil, even if I dont catch any fish its still a great day out, catching fish is a bonus, and sometimes I take it over to Loch Lomond just for a potter about and to give the engines a run in non salty water ( I was going to write "fresh water", but it aint no were near fresh.)
  13. oddly I dont have pics of my boat, but I found pics of the same type of boat, Its a Dejon 14 with a mercury seapro 25hp outboard and it poodles along at 21mph, but feels like 40mph
  14. Hi guys, been a while since I was last here (my profile shows the last post was the 10th of May) I decide earlier in the year, come July or August, it would be time to replace the gal, I have not needed the seven seater for a couple of years now, due to the oldest leaving the nest and getting married ( what an idiot, only 19 years old, but thats another story) As some of you know I have a 14ft boat and where I launch it, the gals clearance just makes it, and a few times the gal has got stuck in the soft sand, so I thought about estates, saloons, (you can get a 06 plate vectra for 5595 to 5995, if you dont mind high miles), but due to the clearance issues when launching the boat, I decided on a small 4x4, So i bought a 53 plate Nissan X-Trail 2.2 DCI 136 SVE in Mercury Silver ( It looks grey to me), I was going for a Honda Crv, but the thought of lifting the spare to and from the boot door, was enough for a heart attack,,,,,the X-Trail has everything I need air con, leather, heated seats, sat nav, electronic 4x4 system, and loads of space, and with it being a deisel, there is a garage around the corner from where I work that does bio-deisel for
