OK so my mate cainy's pass. seatbelt was FUBAR, it would unwind, but would not retract half the time. So we fetched it off, and once removed, it wound all the way in and would not wind out again. Anyway we discovered that if you remove the green (iirc) cover there is a strange device with a large ball bearing in it. When this thing is removed, the belt works absolutely spot on, wind in and out freely and locks up perfectly when tugged. So, what the heck is this stupid thing for? My belts are both slow to retract, I'm thinking of removing this thing from mine too. Does it have any actual functoin other than fooking it up?

First off hi as its Rodders (aka Marks) brother here. I have been helping him today take a look at his engine to try to diagnose where the whirring noise he has is emanating from. He started the engine and I first used a hose in my ear to get the general area (bottom centre of the engine) then I used a screwdriver pressed upon the oil pump casting and I'm pretty sure the noise is coming from behind this bit. Does anyone know what could be causing the oil pump to have this odd whirring noise? It is odd as it isnt there straight away, I'm guessing that it starts once the oil pressure has risen after a few seconds and is very prominent for a few mninutes and then …

a quick qestion for all you zed nuts. as some of you know i,m pretty new to the world of zed, and am still looking for the right car, my question is this - should i buy a car with 17 or 19 inch alloys. i want to know what the pros and cons of a zed rollin on large alloys apart from the obvious, which is it will look the mutts nuts.... i do want the car to look fat but will the car suffer in drivabilty and handling with the large 19's let me know what your experiances are.... cheers george
