  2. XENON HID KIT

    in Bodywork and Styling

    Posted

    Nice pics, I want these so bad now!!! I was reading on another site that the standard headlights aren't suitable for HID conversion, as you get too much glare or something? Is this true? Sanchez it looks like you have standard headlights with the conversion, you had any issues?

  3. Door Trim Rattles

    Thanks guys yeah I thought about just filling it with that stuff but then I thought I might break my car lol. Last time I used it in the house it was stuck to my skin for weeks!

    I think I might just wrap some electrical tape around any loose metal stuff and hope for the best!

    Any other ideas welcome though!

  4. Door Trim Rattles

    Hi guys, so I've had my fron passenger door card off in order to eliminate some annoying rattles from behind there. I found some broken glass, an unconnected speaker wire (I have no stereo so wouldn't have noticed!) and also 2 broken plastic trim clips. All this I can sort but I was wondering if anybody has had similar rattles and applied any other measures like foam/padding etc? Has anybody tried to fill the door with some sort of padding?

    While I have the door card off I am ready to try anything to stop these noises! I suspect it may be the door lock pin rattling in it's guides or something? Should I wrap something around it?

    Any suggestions?

    Hi guys, I was reading an interesting thread the other week on this site concerning a good price HID kit and someone who had fitted one was going to put up a guide - what you need/how to fit etc?

    I just wondered if this had gone up yet? I would like to change the woeful lighting on my standard VR6 and would like a few pointers!

    Cheers

    Hi guys, hope you don't mind me chipping in as I will probably change my exhaust next year.

    I hear good things about Dubpower (HT Lleads, manifolds etc...) but I notice they also do a full stainless system for the VR6. Does anybody here use this system or know if it's any good?

  18. Starting Problem - Stall

    in Engine Maintenance and Problems

    Posted

    Hi guys, this has happened to me a few times now. When the car has been stood for a while (particularly in the cold/wet) when I start her up the engine catches and fires but instead of settling to idle it just stalls. Sometimes it will do that 2 or 3 times before getting it's ass into gear. I have an OBD1 1994 vehicle.

    As a minor point as well, sometimes when it fires up there is a crunching/grinding noise that sounds like a belt or something slipping as it fires, then it goes away.

    Any ideas amigo's?

  22. Crankcase Breather

    in Engine Maintenance and Problems

    Posted

    Hi guys, so I replaced my crankcase breather valve today (Ford Galaxy part) and as I removed the old split one I noticed like a coil of wire like a birds nest sticking out of the metal pipe from the crankcase... i managed to get hold of it and pull it out and it was like a tightly wound coil acting as some sort of primitive mesh, but it was all twisted.

    Is this supposed to be there does anyone know? Or was it rammed in there by a previous owner do you think?

    A weird one I know!
