  1. Fantastic, thanks Mike! I'll have a look in the week and see if I can get it sorted.
  2. I had my DPF gutted and remapped by TVS in Tamworth...I would highly recommend them, and I'd also highly recommend getting it done...As people have said, it's a night and day difference.
  3. These were my reasons, I also like the clean whiteness of the light compared to the beige/yellow of an incandescent. I know a guy who has VCDS, whereabouts should we be looking to disable the cold bulb test for the number plate lights? (It is that that I need to disable isn't it?)
  4. Handy to know. Is it easy to find the option to turn it off?
  5. So, I fitted some allegedly CANbus compatible LED number plate lights only to be greeted by a bulb warning light...Is there a way to prevent this? Strap some resistors around the bulb holder to fake a standard bulb maybe?
  6. How easy would that be to achieve? I am not particularly mechanically minded...Will the system drop coolant all over my drive when I disconnect them from the matrix?
  7. This is something that a friend checked for me, they aren't heating up.
  8. Keen to see how these turn out, sound quality wise and useability wise also. Is there an Android version so I can use Waze with it?
  9. The engine gets to standard running temperature and stays there. The heater spits out air that can best be described as 'tepid'.
  10. Anyone else got any recommendations? Or any advice about the issue for that matter?
  11. Hullo, I've just taken my car to Lion Garage in Hinckley as the heater isn't working. I'm informed that it's potentially the head gasket pressurising the heating system, but AFAIK they haven't done any tests to check for exhaust gas in the coolant and the coolant itself is relatively clear. There's no way in hell I'm willing to pay them for 12+ hours exploratory work to strip the engine down and check if the head is cracked etc without a little more reassurance that that is the correct course of action. I've been running torque to monitor coolant temperature and it sits happily between 80-90 degrees. Does anyone around the area have a tame and knowledgeable mechanic who could give me a second opinion? Engine is a CR170
  12. Take them out, pull out the bulbs and covers etc and leave them somewhere warm and dry?
  13. Nice location, this shot in particular is great... :-) If my car was ever clean enough for long enough this is the kind of place I'd take pictures of it...
  14. The discovery that our grumpy old drawing checking clerk does burlesque dancing as a hobby. Although I'm obviously quite glad I found this out via conversation at work as opposed to by attending a burlesque night and seeing it first hand...
