joined the A45 from the M42 slip road this morning. Long sweeping bend going uphill. I gave it just a little bit too much welly and got sideways... a nice bit of accidental drifting. :dance: anyway I took it easy the rest of the way to work because I thought I had left my Racelogic TC on 20% and it was raining. When I got to work I went to change it and saw the TC was set to wet???? :headvswal Surely I shouldn't be able to spin my wheels with TC set to wet. Whats going on?

hi guys im in kind of problem.. my car sounds like harley davidson it rumbles like mad any idea what it my be??

Hi there you ridiculously helpful people... I posted up a problem a couple of months back when my Zed was peeing water out of the bottom and overheating like a big bitch. That time it stunk and whistled lots and water was pouring out while the engine was running. That turned out to be a totalled water pump for your reference... ...today a slightly different problem has occurred. I drove into Colchester, parked up and all was fine. I came back to the car 5 mins later to hear a hissing noise coming from the engine bay. I looked underneath and, yep, water was coming out again from behind the front wheels at a steady flow. AAAAAAAAH! Later on I decided to risk…

where do i get jets for 16 psi?

I have decided to buy new tyres. The tyre sidewall markings are as follows: Front: 235/45/R17 Rear: 255/40/R17 My question is, why is the front aspect ratio (45) bigger than the rear aspect ratio (40)? Should this be the case? At the moment they are all Bridgestone Blizzak winter tyres which came with the car. They are fine in the dry but are darn right dangerous in the wet. They aquaplane really easily. Also they have a maximum speed rating of 99 mph Toyo Proxes seem to be the number one choice. MyTyres.co.uk have quoted £335 for 4 tyres. Does anyone know of anyone cheaper?

Just installed a boost gauge and it's showing 6psi, 6.5-6.8 in third gear. What is standard boost in psi? Vacum is at 20

I got onto the motorway yesterday and floored it, car went into power mode, got up to 70mph and eased off on the acelerator and the revs (on the meter) dropped to nothing but the car carried on at the same speed even when i took my foot totaly off the acelerator. got to a hill and went to accelerate a bit, nothing happened for a for the first bit of acelerator travel then revs shot back up to 5000 (so i seemed to only have a choice of 0 revs or 5000revs). i carried on for a bit then pulled into the services (it has happened a couple of times before and stopping has seemed to fix it). got out of the car to discover burning smell from under bonnet, engine was hot, …

I am assuming everyone who votes has a zed in the first place. I was just wondering how many people run two cars?

Much work in fitting one of these to a uk TT auto?

hello, i was hoping on some advice on my leaky steering rack. i cant keep any powering steering fluid in the car unless i use Leak Stop fluid and even that just slows down the leak to a trickle. i had the original rack replaced becuase the dealership could not adjust the alignment anymore. i bought a used one from the UK, because it is the closes right hand driving country to me. it was installed and worked fine minus the fact that the delearship said it leaked. they put new gaskets in so i am hoping that is not the problem. which leads me to the leak. in the interest of saving money, where should i look for common failure items so i might do the repair myself. i…

As some of you will know, ive spent some on my zed recently and now have Smithys big brake kit, stillen anti roll bars, goodridge hoses, greddy profec B spec II, apexi induction, scorpion exhaust and datascan. When i brought the car i was told it has a jwt chip in (need to check i know...), has lots of hard pipes/ stainless bling under the bonnet from various forume sources. I want the car to be faster, it handles nicely now, but just doesnt "feel" that fast. What can i do to make it feel faster.. (not looking at the extreme of getting the engine out for new turbos.) I know i need to look at the chip and probably swap to john dixon or andyp's chips, bu…

Things arnt going good in the world of zeding!!! On my second one now which was spose to be a real good one. This squeel that the engine had that starts after about 3-5 seconds is still there.
