HI, saw you put thumb up to me, and flash me, caught slightly unawares not used to seeing another Zed in the town. Cheers Dave

Hi, I dont use my Zed daily anymore, maybe 3 or 4 times a week - and recently when it's been really cold - it has been VERY LUMPY when starting from cold - after 2-4 mins all is well - but very cold starts require throttle control to keep her alive - until she settles!!! (hormonal car?????) Any ideas. She has always been a fab cold starter! Has already had (within 5K) New Plugs/new MAF/PTUv2/both temp sensors. Thanx in advance. AndyGP andy@cheeandy.com 0774 616 6608

Does anyone know a good mechanic in the Sussex area that can look after my Z, I am fed up taking it miles everytime something goes wrong. I have it appears injector rubber failure, (3rd) time in three 6 months. I need someone that knows Zeds. Thanks. :(

Does anyone know of a picture of inside the door, with door card removed that shows close up of the door lock barrel and how its connected to the rods. Trying to fix door lock on Wife's NA, its never worked since had car, and there is a cobra alarm installed. Have taken door card off and none of the metal rods are going to the lock barrel and cant see anything that should obviously be attatched. Looks like the Cobra alarm installer has redesigned the mechanism to work with the alarm. Really dont want to have to remove my door card to compare

hi i am trying to remove my ariel but cant seen to get it to budge no matter how much i try. any advise? cheers rich

OK I am a very picky guy when it comes to my cars. I always want everything to be spot on. The targa seals were leaking a tiny spot of water now and again on the passengers side. I then replaced the seals up and around the targa seals with new ones from Andy Z from SuperCar Parts. Noticed that when I went to the car wash etc there was a lot more water coming through than before, but I just assumed that it was my fitting of the seals. After looking at the seals it is my fault I think and need some sort of glue come sealant stuff to help stick down the trim to the body as it is slighty raised in parts which caused the leakage. Now I will have to spend all day tomo…
