hi, please can anyone help me, i had a toad a1606 cat 1 alarm put on my car at the weekend and the installer had a problem with my auto inhibitor switch. basically he said that the wires from the ecu to the switch had (at some time) been cut/ fiddled with and he has had to by-pass the inhibitor switch for the car to be able to start. obviously this isn't the ideal solution as the car can now start in gear hence will fail its next MOT :( :confused: he said he would re-wire it if he (or me) can find a wiring diagram. i'm not sure if this means the engine ECU, auto box ECU or what. please help!!!! has anyone any idea why the ecu's wires have been played w…

I want to get a new rear bumper for my car, it has a greddy gracer on the front, and I have skirts sorted, so Im now looking for a rear bumper. All the ones I have seen just seem to be extensions onto the existing bumper - Are there any full replacements available? What types have you guys fitted to your cars? Thanks.

I wonder if anyone can help or advise me about a power steering niggle that has recently developed. I have a 91reg Z auto NA, and it's been a dream for the last 3 years, no real problems. Just recently I've noticed the PAS cutting out at low revs or when I start her up, however get her up and going and it soon sorts itself out. It doesn't do it all the time just intermittently over a period of about a month now?? :confused:

does anyone know that the torque settings for the wheel nuts should be? my wrench is in nM calibrations. ta

Passed Shep in his identical black TTzx last month and mentioned the site to me so I joined cheers!
