  1. Try here http://www.ross-tech.com I thought you managed to find the instructions for the infra-red remote ??
  2. Well I don't pay my line rental to anyone else..... nor do I :D
  3. sounds like a intermittently faulty inhibit switch in the gearbox

  6. cheers - thanx for the welcome - read a few of your posts - good luck with the Gal hunt :(
  7. ohhh I'd love to :( but since I am meant to be saving money on my new 65 mile/day commute I think SWMBOWSL might notice it in the drive :) nice looking car though :(
  8. well thanks for the sentiments folks - except MM - incidently how much did you pay BT to put the wires in the wrong holes - it took them three days to work out why the phone didn't work and three weeks to find out that they had wired the broadband into a different number. Jeez how they find their arse with both hands beats me. Oh you didn't pay them, they did it as a standard service well BJ you should be proud :( :( Apart from the plastering, decorating, plumbing, gardening - not to mention school holiday entertaining we are about settled - not hopefully will be able to get here a bit more often than in the last month or so :)
  9. cheers neil & baz will have a look :(
  10. agreed :( :) :D
  11. 40k or 60k depending how much work the dealer has on at the time :( :( :)
  12. they seem to work ok provided tension is kept whilst winding both up and down - wife had an RAC man change a tyre on a very steep slope in the lake district last year and he put a piece of cardboard on the floor and pulled the alloy wheel - dragging it by the winch to make sure that the wire was under tension while he wound the punctured tyre/wheel up (no room in the boot at the time) worked fine after :(
  13. Do you mean that it starts but that one cylinder is not firing (missing) or that it does not start at all?? year/model or car ???
  14. yes - seen this reported before a few times
  15. stop tapping your right foot to the music then :( :(
  16. :( moving the stud wall between the 7 and 4 year olds bedrooms atm - can't even send the darlings to their rooms without them pointing out that they could throw things at each other :) :D Mind you the 4 y old stated that it hadn't been a good day and that his mother was a BOSSY Cat :D :D only 41/2 weeks to go :(
  17. Bringing the wheelie bin in today I knocked the wing mirror with my upper arm walking from rear to front and it BROKE OFF leaving the aluminium bracket attached to the car and the mirror dangling by the cables. My arm is not bruised and I felt that I hardly touched it :angry: On examination the plastic bush which connects the two aluminium castings had just broken off, there was no sign that it had been partially broken before - the break appeared the same colour all the way around. Wonder if the plastic had become brittle over time. In the end I made a temporary repair by tapping a 2BA thread in the bracket and bolted the aluminium top frajkme to the bracket (used a self tapper on the other side sine the aluminium was a bit thin to tap. Result seems very solid - only problem is now there is no give if something hits the mirror (from front to back) should I look to replace my temporary repair or not?? :blink: :blink:
  18. its reallly the dvd's that I want to play :unsure:
  19. apparently the kids use them to climb up on :blink:
  20. would probably be helpful if you tell us the model/year of the car
  21. brake switch - do your brake lights work ok - intermitent fault on switch will give ecu mixed signals (drive by wire system)
  22. the multifunction wheel/column is/was an option on even on a ghia so it would be normal, yes
