  1. Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in d:\home\gteuk\citroenpicasso.org.uk\htdocs\ford\ips_kernel\class_db_mysql.php on line 457 Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in d:\home\gteuk\citroenpicasso.org.uk\htdocs\ford\sources\ipsclass.php on line 1100 What happened there ! I will say this only once "MICROSOFT" and also but given the team only 5 mins :rolleyes: :lol: This should be giving not given ( he plays in goal for the toon, our best player, which really complements our defence ).
  2. Could be handy for you getting away 5 mins before the end of the games, when all hope is gone 5 ???????? OKAY I will explain this for any girlies out there. The fans whose team are getting beaten with little hope of winning or even drawing tend to leave the ground early as they are not enjoying the game and might as well avoid the traffic rush and the abuse from the winning supporters at the end. JEESE what next offside rule !
  3. F'hell mate thats not a rat-run its a sewer :rolleyes: :lol: I know but its still much quicker than the sitting in a traffic jam option. The Old Gal rides the humps well.

  5. It should come with several choices of voices on it. Only the ILLEGAL PIRATED version downloaded from file sharing services has the single voice on it. Hope this helps
  6. All the other cars on MY road. Get out of the way you b*ggers
  7. Its probably the weight of that HEAVY DUTY BATTERY thats slow you down :D
  8. Nope you wouldn't expect a clutch judder at every gearchange 2nd and 3rd ( especially 3rd ) are the most likely, you dont really need a clutch to change into 4th, for 5th you usually have a lot of torque applied when you change and you tend to only engage 1st when stationary. All this is tosh however if Andrew T comes back and sayes he is driving an Auto !
  9. Do they do a highering kit, this would seem more practical in this world of speedhumps that I live in. I counted them yesterday, 73 going to work , okay I was using a ratrun but thats not the point. Well maybe it is. Cant see the point of a lowering kit.
  10. Can you describe this fault in more detail. It sounds from your description as if the cassette unit is not engaging properly and popping back up. If this was the case then you would not expect the headunit to bring up anything other than an error as obviously there is no way the cds are going to move across into the player itself. Therefore your statement about no cds showing would not at all unexpected and it is unlikely you would even bother looking at the head unit. Do you mean than you place cd's in the cassette unit, place it into the player, close the lid and everything looks mechanically ok. Then when you try to play them it comes up with the no cds fault on the head unit ?
  11. Is that because you don't ever speed ? :lol: or is it because you haven't been caught yet ? B) I think we all know the answer to this one don't we ! :D
  12. Like I said give me a braking system that I can control. If I push the brake pedal I expect the brakes to be applied in response to how hard I press. Don't like the thought of a computer thinking about it for me.
  13. Spoken like a true married woman ! :blink: No they are not coming off :blink: Anyhow back to the endorsements, the sp60 does seem to be very vague.
  14. Just about to send my license of for change of address when noticed old speeding endorsement ( guilty as charged ) for 3 points was listed as SP60 ! No mention of this on the DVLA site only goes up to SP50 ( wee bit too fast on the motorway ) although interestingly last time I was done for this it appeared as MW10 ( contravention of special road regulations other than speeding ) what the !!!! ( maybe it was not noticing the cop car up on the ramp as I went past at 92mph according to him ). Anyhow SP60 ? the only reliable info. I have is exceeding temporary speed limit, which is a non-endorsable offence according to the DVLA. From the DVLA site SP10...exceeding goods vehicle limit. SP20...exceeding vehicle speed limit, not goods or passenger SP30..exceeding statutory speed limit ( had one of them ) Sp40..exceeding passenger vehicle speed limit Sp50..exceeding motorway speed limit ( almost had one of them ) SP60....no mention under endorsable offences !!!!!
  15. Sadly I know little about the 2.8 engine, although there are plenty on this site who do. The rest of the Galaxy is mostly identical all the others. Post your other problems and I am sure that there is plenty of experienced owners out there to help you.
  16. Quite probably, it just means the sensor is not sensing properly, due to rust, accumulation of mcuk or possibly faulty sensor. Give it a try it wont hurt, ABS kills more people than it saves, its not a bad thing it being missing !
  17. You have a problem and now your ABS no longer works ( there is still a debate whether this is a good or bad thing ! ). Most likely a wheel sensor malfunction.
  18. Aah the sweet sound of admitting defeat is music to my ears ! :16: I suspect the sweet sound is just some echoes in the empty caverns :16: :30: :30: :16: :blink: Probably true :blink:
  19. Aah the sweet sound of admitting defeat is music to my ears ! :)
  20. I don't think the problem is the car. :lol: I now think the problem is the size of the gaps you are driving into :lol:
  21. Going the same way ! He was on the hard shoulder speaking to some guy with a yellow coat and with some fancy blue halogen headlights on his car, maybe he was comparing boy racer equipment. Although they must have been broken cause they were flashing and he had obviously removed them to have a look at and placed them conveniently on his roof. Couldn't see the model of the car cause I was on the phone.
  22. Yes but yours is an AUTOMATIC
  23. Only by pulling the stick back from 2 to 1 that should cure it. The kickdown should be quick enough at that speed, I would suggest you get it checked. Drove plenty of autos and never had this problem although they very rarely changed down to 1st even when completely stopped they were still in second and if you tries to pull away just above tickover they would do this in 2nd. However they all kicked down almost immediately when the pedal hit the floor. Have you had the car long ?
  24. Sure I passed him on the M1 yesterday
