Hello folks. Need a bit of help. I have just replaced my heater matrix with a Primera one after the old one washed my carpets for me. :headvswal . The replacement went fine but i have a connection that i can not account for, and i do not want to go any further with the refitting of the dash until i solve it, or someone solves it for me. :rofl: It is the arrowed connection that comes of the part of the loom that goes to the heater connections. Thanks for any help folks.

My little brother wants SatNav for his first car but he figures he may as well go the PDA route as he can use it for other things as well then. Does anyone have a PDA with SatNav or recommendations. He quite fancies the Navman PiN 570.

I need to get hold of a replacement indicator stalk. But this is no ordinary indicator stalk! After looking through all the old Zeds down at Ztech we couldn't find one with the same plugs coming out of the back. Most only have one set of plugs, mine also has a smaller plug coming out of it (this is highlighted with a red square in the pic). If anyone has one of these for sale, or knows what the extra plug thing is for please let me know. Thanks, Mike...

When I had my rear screen removed and refitted the trim no longer fitted properly as in these photos .... I have recently sourced a good used replacement and it is the same, with a gap at both ends and the company doing it think the seal shrinks and I need to buy a new one, has anyone else had the same problem or are we missing something obvious and not realising it as I have never heard of this problem before, any suggestions gratefully recieved, Richard.

Hi, Had a look on search and couldn't find anything, does anyone have any links on how to put in longer studs on the rear, i need to put on 20mm spacers, i tried the other day and it looks to me that the hub will need to come off any ideas? Cheers.

I have a rattly bottom end (OO-EErr matron!) suspect a bottom end bearing. have spoken to ryan and he thinks it is probably due to me using gtx 10-40 when i did my last oil change.. how difficult is it for me to find out the bearing and crank numbers so i can order the correct parts?? i presume you can do it by removing the sump?? also how can i check if it has done any damage to my tubs?? and where is the best place to get new bearings from.. any spanner jockeys available who have done this before and could help??? reason for me askin is ryan is backed up solid for the next 3 weeks and i would like to have her fixed for japfest2 ..
