Blimey..all this talk of different knobs..shiny ones, furry ones,ones that pull up, ones that push down ;) ..i really must go lie down....it's all too much for my delicate disposition!! :D :D :D

Now im sure that on here someone said half an hour at least...... ;)

No dangers as far as i know , apart from radio code.It needs to be disconnected for at least half an hour or so to reset the ecu.IIRC.

Ok..just thought id double check. ;) :D

Hi...as for which hoses etc..i dont really know....But all i can suggest is do what i did when i had a service go very badly wrong...go back...don't ring and prewarn them..just turn up .give em hell and dont leave with out the car...insisst on getting it sorted there and then.it is your car and they have messed up somewhere..Maybe they knocked something loose or forgot to put something back(did with mine) More experienced peeps will be along soon....they cant stay away from the place. :)

Well..hope the install goes ok..and good luck for when the new money muncher arrives!! :wacko: Don't 4 get to post a pic of the new mini Bagpuss on the ME thread!! :)

You sure its not the MAF????

:( The chrome..i want pink alloys aswell...but.....im being vetoed from the sidelines :blink:

Looks very nice...but i think it suits the silver car more than the darker one looking at both urs and FMs...Do they come in pink???? :rolleyes: :blink:

The sticker on my car says 41 front 38 rear half load....but yes..i corrected myself once id had a looksie in my trusty dog eared , tea stained manual!! :rolleyes: :blink: Hmmmm...must have a looksie on ebay for a new one...

50???????????isnt that a bit high???? fully laden should be 42 rear 38 front IIRC. Just looking in my manual here...i got it wrong methinks...should be 41 front 38 rear up to half load on my tyres..and fully laden is 44 front 50 rear up to full load..that is for 215/55/R16 tyres which i have. Ah well..never claimed to be perfect!! :blink: well it would if it made any sense!! :(

saying that..i have lines going across the window from where it goes down.but hey..it works at the moment and i dont have time as yet to investigate.long as it works..i will leave it.i might knacker it completely. :)

Im on Tiscali Broadband...you can now get 8meg for 17.99 a monthif you get phone aswell with them it is i think 19.99.

Hmmm...mine did this the other day but i left it..seems to have gone away so i didnt bother about it. :)

blimey...i let mine struggle!! :) :D well..i get shouted out if i try and help them!! :D :D How would you fit them anyway????wouldnt they stick out? :)

Nice work Neil...well done for getting it all done!! :) Congrats to your sister and new hubby :)

Glad you got it sorted in the end..one question though.....what are HT leads?..

Yes steering is now fixed....i sort of whacked a tree when i turned the wheel and the car didnt respond as quickly as i was steering...the garage drained the power steering fluid and changed it for me aswell...there was a lot of crap in the fluid itself which he believes may have clogged a valve...everything is now in the hands of a solicitor against the two garages who said that there was nothing wrong with my steering at all...also against the garage who were supposed to have serviced it!! :)

Ohhh...hello you two!!... :)

I like craft exhibitions...and im going to a car show next month at Billing. I go for pleasure and i will travel as far as i need to to go.I do like photography but have never been to an exhibition or show. When you doing an exhibition in my neck of the woods????As i wll come along to it!!

engine braking is using the gears i presume...i do use this method if slowling down slowly..like behind a lorry or slow moving vehicle which speeds up and then slows down depending on the state of the road or anything else that might affect it... last night i went out and did some testing on the brakes....if i slow gradual the squeak is there..short and sharp like in emergency braking(but without dipping clutch)..it is not there..(that i could hear)so....when i get the chance and the time along with the correct tools (which i shall filch of me dad)...i will have a looksie at the brakes. ;)

Dont have cable....and no landline phone.i dont have incomeing or outgoing calls....and i like it that way..i switched from talk talk to Toucan ages ago..TT dropped the line but Toucan never picked it up..i was annoyed at first but not bothered now as i still have the internet.I pay no landline to anyone....its cool...means the outlaws and family dont ring us as much!!...pmsl

well..least you wont be missed on a dark night ! ;)

aww..hes cute!!reminds me of the cat i used to have many yrs ago ..He was a tabby/siamese cross called Grem..he was a brute of a cat!!..but he was soft as muck...i was gutted when he died ;)

SLAP!!!!!!!!!! ;) But you men take sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo long to complete that one task!!!!!!!!!! :D :D :D
