Re: Small problem - or maybe not?

Nothing to worry about. Do you have an import? It could be the speedo converter. I had exactly this. I changed the converter (or you could remove it) and problem solved Yes it is an import, however it is most likely my fault as i was fiddling around in that area yesterday and it was fine before. I ...

Re: All over for G164 CKV... didn't make the moon after all.

Is this STILL going on? I think, over the last god knows how many pages, it has been established that there have been discrepancies in many areas, both with the trader and the customer. No one is going to admit fault and it has been going around in circles for a while now. The car is back on the roa...

Re: Small problem - or maybe not?

OK after trawling the internet it is showing up as the speed sensor so that would explain why the speedo is "intermittent" at the moment. I did have the dials off yesterday to change the bulbs so i am guessing i havent put it back properly or something so will check it out later. Cheers fo...

Re: Small problem - or maybe not?

Nope it was the one in the top left next to the battery light!

Oh god this is something worse then?

Just looked and it is the "Malfunction indicator lamp"? I have also noticed that the speedo is not working now but all the other dials are. Could this be the issue?

Small problem - or maybe not?

Driving to work this morning and the engine fan light (i what i think it is, left side, top left in orange) came on and stayed on. I pulled up and left the engine to run whilst i checked the fan which kicked in as usual and was running fine. I left the engine running for a but and monitored the temp...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Snap back oversteer

There seems to be a lot of rev1 bashing here!! :-$ I have had a Rev 3 and rev 1 now, whilst i admit the rev 1 is a bit more "twitchy" i do find it a lot more fun to drive and learn from. I have had some hairy moments but when you do catch it on a slide with the back trying to over take the...
