  3. Not sure if these links will help..But they are just a few out of hundreds http://auto.howstuffworks.com/cruise-control2.htm http://misterfixit.com/cruise1.htm http://www.popularmechanics.com/how_to_cen...ve/1272586.html http://www.2carpros.com/how_does_it_work/cruise_control.htm
  4. Mmmmm..i take it you have a problem with it not working or something then?..Will have a search for you on the net to see if i can answer your question
  5. Now that conjures up images that are just plain WRONG! :blink: Nice...yep..i am, im gonna be one of them sweet old ladies when im old and grey ...Not the Sgt Major my friend says i am! :D I'm younger than you so stop laffin grand dad :D Im as polite as polite can be...Im the epitome of what a lady should be :D
  6. Talk about blowing your own trumpet hun :lol: :) and by the way, im not riff raff, im a nice young very polite, well brought up lady :D
  7. The undertray can be a wee bit heavy ( depending on how much oil it has soaked up :lol: From what i can remember when i took mine off, two of the bolts were a pain in the tailgate to get off, these were the ones set high up at the front of the bloomin thing
  8. Don't you mean not as insane as the other Kev Saif? :) Welcome Kev, Yep, sig looks fine to me :lol: .4 Gals eh, must love the buggers then...Why did one go up in flames?
  9. Could get them to stand on a naughty chair !.... :lol: mmm..now i wonder where you got that idea from :) Ruddy effective though! :D Thanks guys for flagging it.
  10. Unfortunately Saif, even if videos like this are flagged, it takes a long time for them to be removed.On you tube certain vids can be shown to only over 18s, on google, they are accessable to all, ( i havent come across any that are only for over 18s yet) even children.its the children i wish to protect from images like this as it is the children of today who will be influenced by vids like this. I know that vids are posted from all sides, but you will find that usually it is the Americans that will post the vids, not always the british.But no matter what nationality that posts it, it is so very wrong and i do flag vids from either side.So yes Saif, i do flag. I am sure that the other side more than likely feel the same way as we do when viewing vids like this, my problem is that i can everyones side in this and for me it is hard to find a middle ground for me to stand on.I understand everyones point of view and normally i dont get involved in issues like this. But in todays world where anything and everything can be seen worldwide on the internet, when there is enough images or war and death on our tellys and in the papers, i believe that vids like this no matter who from should not be on the net.There isnt enough censorship going on , yes i know free speech and all that, but this isnt speech, this is images of people being blown up, of being injured, killed and maimed. If enough people can flag a video they see, then maybe in time the people that own/run/ these sites will enforce in some way a restriction that stops images like this from being uploaded. Anyway, just some of my opinion and i aint had a cuppa yet.
  11. Ahem......i have never backed into anything in my life!..well..... not in the veccy or the Gal. :lol: The only thing ive done in the gal is get it wedged in a multi story going down one of those blasted ramps. :lol: Anyway, welcome captain to our abode, pray do tell who is your brother that introduced you to our world of madness? :32:
  12. Ok, if we haggling here...I'll give you 50 quid, a mad dog...2 yappy kids and a carrot. :lol:
  13. I do agree with you mk2vr6, no side should show what is being shown.No man should revel in the killing of another.The one i have put a link to here, is nothing compared to some that have been put up.There are more graphic ones from both sides.Neilther side should be allowed to do this, but who will enforce it?thousands of videos are uploaded each and every day, it takes someone to flag something and report it many times before anything is done.Once the powers that be realise ( which they probably already do), then these sort of things will be removed. It is so very wrong to post up for the world to see the killing of another no matter whose side is doing it.
  14. Thanks guys, much appreciated
  15. When ever you are on..i always think of Fifi and the Flowertots :( HAPPY BIRTHDAY have a great day :( B) :lol:
  16. This video is an awful thing to watch it shows our troops being killed.The members of the E-goat community are flagging it to try and get it removed. If when you click on the link it isnt there, try refreshing then it might appear...please click on report safe search and flag it. thank you. http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=...h&plindex=8
  17. Overcast monday here, was reading that when the clocks go backwards, there is an increase of RTAs compared to summer time.
  18. Not sure what vehicle you have, but you can get most of the oil out through the oil level sensor.Depending if you have one.My MKII TDi did.
  19. Lie back and think of England then :lol: :lol:
  20. :lol: :lol: :16: You dont' have make i laugh hun,,,,,Anyway, from what you lot keep telling me, its not what you've got that matters, its what you do with it :16:

    Oi you cheeky beggers, of course i have a driving style.Turn car on, back out of driveway, point car and go.Not my fault if most of the time the car is pointing the wrong way :16: Taxi driver..mmm...now if it was one of those ones where you pay per mile then id make a fortune!..could retire in a week....now that sounds ace to me.. I know where Heathrow airport is, seen the M25 a few times....just happened to be on the same day going round in circles mind..bloody long road that one!...im getting better though!..i now have 3 Atlases in my car...ok they are in the boot but i do have three.I also am accumalating those street ones , got one for swindon, aberdeen, shropshire, northampton...heck, could start my own shop! :) Havent got one for Northampton, coventry, kings lynn, or milton keynes yet..been them places aswell.OO..derby was good....went round there a few times.Bristol was ace, spent a few hours there.Pity i never got out the car as i was going round in circles trying to get out of the place.That hill in bristol..noooo way was i going up that thing!!.would have burnt my clutch out as i hated putting on the handbrake on a hill just in case i rolled back when i pulled off, so i swung a left and sorta went down all these back roads.LMAO. ahhh..i do so love the scenic route.

    Bit longer than the others as its in debateing :D can slag each other to yer hearts content ..... winthin reason of course ;) Im safe then, sooo what can affect MPG. weight of car? ( full load or not) MAF working ( or not as the case may be) Towing Fuel type? ( Petrol or Diesel i mean ) If the engine is kept in good order? ( i would imagine that an engine that is used and abused and not serviced or looked after would return crap MPG) oooot else?? oh yes..the biggy...DRIVING STYLE.

    A good blast doesnt hurt them and every now and then i would blast mine, she didnt half fly and could move pretty quick for a diesel, the EGR is disconnected on my veccy at the mo ( think its the EGR anyway), But it is recommended to give them or any car a good blast before an MOT.
  25. extra load is like reinforced so i don't know why you were told that.
