  1. Just replaced the window mechanism FDS window, now the release handle is just about at the end of its travel before the door opens. I notice there is a hole under the door catch with a screw, is this for taking up any slack in the operating cable. (please say yes) or have I to strip the door down again Porky
  2. Not sure if I should post this because, like me u may think" somebody's pulling my thingy". I had a similar problem & had different cures suggested average cost about £450 but this 1 was free. here goes--stop start the engine 5 times always worth a £450 try. Tel
  3. I have had the same problem And got tired of disconnecting & rec connecting. Decided to solder every elect. joint on the wiring on the floor pan. Cured the seat problem, intermitent windows wing mirrors cruise control dropping out like a new car took it for mot today everything ok. £7-50 added to the bill to get airbag light re=set. Arrived home " lost" the comp trip info & now have drivers side door indicating open all the time but can live with that. :think: Tel
  4. Many thanks Gizmo for your reply hopefully I will sort it tomorrow and then book it in for m.o.t.! Thanks again Tel
  5. I have a problem with my seat belt light staying on. but without the chime. Looking at other posts, but not my model, it mentions a blue plug underneath the seat may be the 1 feeding the sensor on the seat belt stork. anyone know if this would apply to the Mk1 and how would I test it out? Thanks Tel

    What car

    We have decided to get rid of our mk1 superb & buy something smaller like a used Octy. We already have a Citygo as a runner-round Road tax & mpg are important features. Any suggestions for make & model we should look at. Thanks Tel
  7. Hi, I've seen a list somewhere of mobile phones compatible with the citygo radio, can anyone point me in the right direction please Tel

    Thank u

    Thanks to everyone who replied to my query regarding reversing light upgrades & my apologies for the tardiness in replying. Just returned from the NY celebrations in Preston & Bowness-On-Solway. I am pleased to report the problem has been solved by swmbo herself who stated she could not see the writing on road signs & would have to get so spectacles, the stupid bitch. I can say this without fear, - because she doesn,t look at my messages thanks again Tel

    Can I

    Can i fit brighter bulbs ie led,s to the reversing lights? Has anyone done this Tel
  14. My wife has just done a round trip of 480 mls averaging 72mpg with the cruise control set at 58mph ( 75 greentech elegance ) used 31 ltrs
  15. My battery does not appear to be charging. As the car is 6yrs old I assumed it must be the battery & replaced it - no difference. No warning lights on dash so thinking possible belt adjustment. How do I do this? Tel Oh almost forgot where abouts is it!!!!
