    Vanos Seals Replaced but still down on Power

    Feels like it's running fine, smooth through the rev range and to be honest someone new driving it probably wouldn't notice anything. Its just in a 2nd gear pull (for example) your not push back into the seat as you used to and it doesn't feel as instant, I would say 15-20% down on what it...

    ABS Sensor Bolt Size

    I tried to give the abs sensors a bit of a clean a little while ago but came across the old rusty bolt issue. Iv ordered a bolt removal kit but will likely need to replace the bolts on each corner. I know this has been asked a few times before, but I can’t seem to find a definitive view on the...

    WANTED - Carver DSP AMP

    HI All, My E85 is suffering from the intermittent speaker issue whereby sometimes it works perfectly for a weeks then will just stop making noise, bar the second or two following the car being started. Having looked into this it appears the AMP is likely to be the issue. Just popped mine out...

    Intermittent Wiper Not Working

    I think iv got exactly the same problem on mine. Intermittent doesn't work, if I change the speed/ sensitivity it very occasionally works the wipers and it would appear to work slightly better with key set to position 2 but without turning the engine on. Any one have any ideas on whether its the...
