we've heard the 'its the ecu' fault before but I can't recall a case where this has been confirmed ... if there are case they are not that common on here :D :D

I was trying to get Fortuna tyres from peterborough F1 but got these instead - quite pleased at the price and performance so far

surely the RC can be used to control it as a glider

mmmmm ....... thats novel! huh ... who's writing a book????

I thought gliders were unpowered ? but then I'm not a domestic engineer :43: :43:

comparing the 115 and 130 diesels....... I remember the initial complaints when introduced were completely the oposite and it was said to run more roughly, but whether that was ironed out - I cant remember it was a few years ago

umm ...... I suggest a nigerian bank :lol: :ph34r:

thanks - it has already been posted here and I forwarded it to all the staff at school - most found it highly amusing - urban myth or not :P :lol: :P :ph34r:

yes but some of the deadlines for the east region ensures I will need a 20+ year diary A1(M) Alconbury to Peterborough 31/03/2026 M40 Denham to Warwick 05/01/2027 especially as the top one hasn't started yet - well I havent seen anything and I use the roa every day

item 10 in the faq Mk2 pats programming ford charged us about

but it still leaves you only one key - lose it and ....... best get it sorted by buying a couple of standard keys (or at least one) then you can still move if you lose it !!! In your situation I would get a couple because you are going to have to get ford to program them so you might as well get them to do 2 in the hours labour they will charge you (or do it yourself - with 2 you can program more). If you only have one key and you lose it even changing the locks wont work, if you have 2 and lose one then you are looking at a dealer programming - if you have 3 then losing one means a cheap key cut for another and a self programming.

From what I have read/heard and my own experience YOU have to Want to give up not feel you are being forced to ......... Its a state of mind ......

Good luck Maz (If it was serious) I am now about a week short of 1 year :46: :lol: still get the odd craving but its not too bad now - still have the odd lozenge :D :angry2:

I had mumps at 12 years old but my father got it at the same time - very painful amongst other things I also got Chickenpox at 21 - that was no joke at all but when my daughter got it at 4 and gave it to her 1 year old brother who had it badly but he didn't seem to care, we are going out of our way to expose our 2 year old atm

AFAIK it cant be turned off although it has happened twice in the last 4 years - not intending to do anything about it ...

yeah thats the roll restrictor

certainly on the mk2 there is no orange light - it just says 'service now' and I think beeps once at start up - this then disappears - if it is the same with the mk1 then you have another warning :31:

topic moved to the mk3 section

funnily enough I dont believe you :31: :31: :lol: :lol: even my mrs who doesnt like the mk3 says a new car with 3 years waranty would be better than our 6 year old galaxy :lol: :lol: I'd stick with the mk2 but swapping it for oour old secort now there a thought

lucky you dont own one then I wonder if yu would accept as a gift a new mk3 tdci 2.0 ghia or whether you would stick to the veccy :31: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

might as well have done the cambelt at the same time :lol:

assuming its similar to the mk2 have alook at item 4 in the faq

how about the roll restrictor ??

umm how is 70 twice the size of 60 ???? or has a womam been 'thinking' about it
