cool beans!

I'm always driving about round that way, as i have a few mates that side of Tring - I will make sure to keep my eyes peeled for you in the future

Will do :thumleft: I think it might be the throttle cable/pedal being a bit slack/tired/sensitive? Or possibly a sticky brake caliper coupled with my hyperactive ABS system (probably due to a sticky caliper!), trouble is with this theory is that the brakes aren't glowing red hot after a long drive, ...

No, its not a new sport for the fatties, it's a mildly annoying trait of my 2 at the moment. #-o The car seems fine most of the time, but occasionally when at lower-ish revs in 3rd of 4th gear (30-40mph) the car seems to run a bit... well.. "lumpy"! feels almost like someone is constantly ...

i have a set of those Rotas, but i never realised the studs come out?!?!?!
I will have to give that a go, as mine a getting a bit grotty

thanks for all the comments guys nice to know that my hard work doesn't go completely to waste

I might have to sell it soon though need the cash for a mortgage deposit boo hoo

Cheers people! Racer7: Waxing does help, but the fine dust of the carpark (its pretty much just a field with no grass) just seems to stick to it all over. Mabye more noticeable because it's black. However, it does help when it comes to washing all the mud/ dust off afterwards! The products i use are...

Haha, yeah - the dust-bowl of a work carpark tomorrow will soon erase all my hard work today ho hum....

cheers for the comments guys

............ Here are a few pics of the 2 after I gave it a good wash and polish today :D (crappy phone camera, I need to invest in an SLR) http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/zz28/LEMONYFRESHHH/14082011089.jpg http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/zz28/LEMONYFRESHHH/14082011094.jpg http://i810.photobuc...

was this you?!?! the car was up on axle stands with a single exit exhaust.

I am looking for a house around that plot, so there may be 2 MR2s kicking about soon

Mabye they wanted something that sounds like it sould grace the backside of a clapped out old fiesta/ metro plastered on their MR2 to make it more "exclusive"

Either that or they are slightly mad.....

Hi Jason, pretty much what i thought tbh - the garage reckon it isn't connected, but the car it came off of was the same??? Surely if an airbag was standard fitting on the rev4/rev5 uk models it would be connected somehow? (unless the airbag wasn't an option on the list, but the airbag system was!! ...

try holding down both buttons on your keyfob for a few seconds (pointing at the cars of course!), this re-pairs the fob with your car - seemed to do the trick when mine went a bit loopy!

<r>Hi People,<br/> all the bits are on, the MOT is passed, and Mr 2 is heathy again <E/>- however.<E/>.<E/>.<E/>.<E/><br/> <E/><br/> The garage said that my airbag wasn't connected as there is no link between it and the sensors? My car if a UK spec Rev5 and the Airbag wheel came off of a car that ha...

-is sick in mouth-

That is pretty much the dictionary definition of FAIL.

Update:

bought a re-con alternator from TCB earlier today as it is a Toyota part apparently. has a guarantee with is and i should be getting it fitted tomorrow

TCB seem very competitive - I will be calling them soon..... no discount for IMOC memebers i guess.....

Hi people,
I'm sure my alternator is on the way out as it is making some very "broken" noises now :S (almost like a shagged gearbox sound!)

Does anybody knwo a place that sells them at a decent price? as 230 quid from the garage is a joke!

ive not got tobes but you get the idea

+1 on awesomeness.

Oh and Jason, i'm not ignoring your PM - i just cant read or reply to it due to an "unread mail" issue! ARGH!

On a purely cosmetic basis you could change those orange toblarones to flush fit units? (i have no issue with the tobes' myself, but most tend to get rid of them)

Sorry about the crappy quality of the pictures - there is a white connector block that fits into the steering column ring, It has a black wire coming from it with green wires linking to the horn buttons. I can't see any connectors linking the airbag to it (unless they are hidden behind the metalwork...
