  1. hi, i have been noticing a strange happening lately, every time i turn into/out of a street a sudden gush of cold air rushes into the car, it seems like it is coming from near the foot area and circulates to the gear stick bit, any one experienced similar?? cheers
  2. well mark welcome to the world of FULL TIME work, its not as bad as it may seem once you get into the routine, im now on shift work at accenture (also in the field of IT) as a technical analyst, a few 12 hour shifts a month and 1 in 3 w/ends where i have to do 12 hours a day!!! but it all pays off when you get a pay pack and the only downside being losing sleep and getting bummed on tax, all the best anyways and enjoy it - cuz either way you still gona do it!

  9. thanks, i phrased the question wrong lol, ill have to disconnect it all and inspect it, do you think it would influence loss of power?? anything in particular i should be alert about when removing the air intake pipe?
  10. what do you do with the small breather pipe if its leaking where it connects to the bottom of the main intake bit??

    yeh total grot!!! ud have to use a hydraulic jack- rank her up then try to get past the thighs
  14. it is one piece, there is a rubber ring right on top of the shaft near the holder bit, and there was a plastic ring that came out with the sensor too- im assuming this would have been located on the top of the shaft as well (nearest the coil pack)
  15. ONE QUESTION: i know there is a rubber seal (ring) at the top of the cylinder, where is the plastic ring supposed to be located on the sensor? is that just after the rubber seal or ....?? if i wernt careful enough when taking it out, it would have slipped off and dropped in to the engine,
  16. hi, just cleaned the sensor, it wasnt totally gunked in oil but it did have some dry oil marks and oil on it, cleaned it off re-assembled and took it for a spin, BLOOOODYYYY HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL it was soooo fast and responsive, if i give a bit in first until 200 revs then just pound it the car just takes off!!! i aint had a good clear run yet but seems to have done the trick, might replace it when i can financially reason it, many thanks!!!!! well worth the hassle!!!
  17. can someone send me pics of their speedometer needle positions when the car is turned off?? in the battle of trying to change the speedo lights i had to take the needles off and dont seem to think i have put them back on correctly configured, all help will be appreciated many thanks,
  18. i have VERY minimal water loss, the other day took the oil cap off to top up oil and there was some milky residue on it, i was sooo pi**ed off, but in the meantime i cleaned the cap and but it back on, to see if it appears again, the fumes from my exhaust do smell a bit chemically though and in the last meet i went to my VR was smoking more than anyone elses on the cold evening, im fed up of putting money into the car..... gona be getting married soon as well so got more priorities (notice i say more priorities not BIGGER priorities lol)
