  1. Take your passenger seat out before you leave. Makes loads more room when you are fitting in extra seats for the return journey.
  2. phil you have sold your soul to the devil.
  3. Are you sure its not the blower motor bearings going. The only way I found to repair was to replace the blower motor.
  4. Who in Berkshire is good for Timing Chains? My Rado (vr6) has got to the point when the rattle at idle and back off is worrying. I know the Phirm have a good rep. But I live and work in Reading. Can anyone with experience recomend somewhere to do a reasonable job in replacing the timing chain tensioners and if need be replace chains and lower tensioner, and any idea of costs? I have ben quoted circa £400 + Parts but I have no idea of parts prices.
  5. Hmm, Cheers Dom, Confirmed my suspicions. Time to bite the bullet.
  6. From what I remember it had a top end rebuild on engine, including KR cam mod - producing 157BHP. I may be wrong But I don't think so.
  7. I agree with Tom here, That Valver aint no slo coach. Must be the way its driven Jim. I have had a 3 lane Corrado rolling roadblock at a speed upwards of an indicated 135 leptons on the M3 with Jims car whilst it was being driven by the female previous owner. Im sure she would be most upset to hear that Jim is now sledging his own car, Its a lovely engine with that KR, I know this car is a quicken. My advice, Go out and find a road you enjoy and Just enjoy it.
  8. Well Mine is Noisy. and Now the Summer is back, and Im driving with Windows down again. I reckon it has got noisier over the winter. Does this sound senario sound like chains? Pronounced rattle at idle, and chatter on engine braking?
  9. It is most likely to be the built in amp in the aerial base. The search is your friend. Mine was pants and now it is ace. Click here for instructions on how to Fix aerial

    Aero Wipers.

    Hmm, that would be interesting, I revently paid 11 pounds for replacemetn Lupo Blades and they suck. What does the kit include?
  12. Its a good job its quick, caus I wouldn't want to stare at it for too long, I might go blind. :shock:
  13. The variance in pressures could be put down to dodgy iar compresors at garages. They are notourious for being inaccurate. So what pressure would you put in a Standard VR6 ? I keep mine at 30 PSi but the Toyos seem to roll on the edges. But after going through a set of Pirellis in 6k a few years ago because they were over inflated, I dont want to fill them with too much air.
  14. Boring, :sleeping: The game has improved so much. Its brilliant with a few mates and a few beers.
  15. Ive been ok with just Jubilee clips, apart from intially cracking the ebow joint.
  16. Auxilliary water pump ? New Top Elbow joint from Rad. When I fitted my samcos it snapped it straight off.
  17. Porsche intends to seek legal action in the form of a judicial review of the Mayor of London's plans to introduce a £25 congestion charge for Band G cars. A letter to this effect was delivered to the Mayor's office on Tuesday and you may have seen media coverage of the announcement Anyone wishing to express interest, support or oposition to this action, please visit: http://www.porschejudicialreview.co.uk and give Porsche your comments. Thank you
  18. Mine had the similar problem. I put it down to poor contacts, the If you pull of the cover you will see a contact that moves. I cleaned it up with some glass paper and prized it up a little to give better contact. Works on all speeds.
  19. thought you might say that! You still there? Heya, Yeah Im still there. How are you doing mate.
  20. I thought that the emisions regulation was for cars registered after 51 plate. Anything prior to that is exempt from the readings.
