  1. removing trim panel instructions - you might need them !!!
  2. Too much traffic shaping from what I've heard with tiscali but you probably wouldn't notice unless you do much full speed downloads :blink:
  3. after what you've already done :angry: :blink:
  4. QUOTE How cold can the outside ambient temperature be and still contribute useful (and effecient) heat inside the building? I suspect the future lies somewhere along this way its a great idea five times more efficient as heating, needs careful design otherwise external components ice up reducing the heat flow, its difficult to control the external humidity so always water available to condense and freeze if the temp is too low, did some experiments with a canibalised fridge and two fans once - all good fun :angry: :blink: :angry:
  5. can you pop it out and test it in boiling water - I remember my dad doing that with his hillman superminx 40years ago :angry: :blink:
  6. Were with pipex but there were very slow adopting surftime and at the time my phone bill (due to internet usage) was working out at
  7. Coincidence or what - Started mine today temp 11c and lo and behold - taxing aircraft noise under passenger wheelarch :blink:
  8. please post tia - doh they have just appeared
  9. this is more like my symptoms without the MAF I might as well pedal it, usually it pulls reasonably well in low gears/low speed, seems to go flat at about 40-50mph up a hill, struggles to maintain speed of 70+ up a slight incline I think its getting worse but the change is so gradual. Is the sensor a hot wire type, is it getting dirty/deposits over time which would mean that the wire doesn't cool down so fooling the ecu to add more air and making the mixture too lean in these circumstances?????
  10. have you got a manual, it usually tells you what to set it on depending on the load distribution in the car :o
  11. usually next to interior light dimmer :o
  12. is there a separate install for this because it did not install on mine
  13. Did you try greasing or wd40 a year ago or did you leave it for the year :o
  14. original post Perhaps it wasn't the turbo ? need more details
  15. which pipes and where Thanx
  16. I get the same at low speed but at highspeed it seems to lack power - not dramatic, somebody suggested it was a vacuum pipe to the turbo (Neil I think) I need to pursue this further.
  17. It really depends on when and what, a spring which failed after 5K would have a manufacturing fault but after 100k then I would replace both, they do creep under load(and temperature cycling) but on a very long time scale. Would not however replace a pair of speakers !!
  18. No but were considering one - interested in your views if you test drive one
  19. out of interest what sort of mpg are you looking at for the touran?
  20. what - our info or yours ?? :D :D
  21. I am aware of zen's good reputation - I will pm you later Thanx
  22. PS rumour has it that she was denied a part as an orc in Lord of the rings because they had already employed the make up artists :D
  23. I don't know, I've never found any antarctic explorers who are so fed up with life that they are prepared to look for it :lol:
  24. I'm currently with demon and pay
