thanks for the talk earlier. i've done as instructed and the HICAS light is glowing red nicely. will take it out for a drive tomoz. :dance: .I owe you a :duffer: next time we meet

Took a trip to Brighton yesterday to give my kids a day out- left the Z behind, and having locked it up and alarmed her, of we went. On my return find I'm cursed, cant find the keys to the z anywhere, presumably down some drain in Brighton, problem is I now need a lock set, a new immobiliser and alarm in pretty short order as the Z is my daily driver. I have only one key that fits the ign and drivers door, and can't find the key that de-activates the alarm. The immobiliser only had one doodab as thats how it was when I bought it. Any suggestions anyone know anyone who might be able to help with this little lot. TA in advance. :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

After Trying To Track Down An Engine Stumble, I Did A Diagnostic Check As Per The Steve Chong Article And Found That The Left O2 Sensor Is Flashing Very Slowly On The Ecu, (about Twice Every 10 Secs). The Right One Seems Ok At 5 Flashes/10 Secs. Does This Mean The Left Sensor Is Shot Or A Bad Connection? Where Are They And How Easy Are They To Change?

white zed heading towards camblesford from selby 26/03/04 afternoon flashed you, didnt flash back

Looks like I am gonna inherit my dads m-reg Renault 19 Diesel as he's bought a new Megane, anyone looked into insuring both cars under the same policy and if so what companies. Cheers John Crisp

ok my body kit is veilside except the front end,now i have a blown indicator bulb and it looks like im gona have to rip the whole front end off to change it.When the car was put together they skipped on the pop out front lights/indicators...and mounted the standered 1s behind the panel itself.i cant get behind the bumper cos the intercooler takes up all the room.so to change the STUPID fu#in bulb im gona have to take the front right off.. PLEASE can any1 tell me what make the front end is and where i can scource the proper lights that fit the wholes provided so this dosnt happen again.

Seen yellow Z going northbound. I had just pulled into the services before Scotch corner about lunch time. Traffic was terrible :D

hi anyone need one of these? I made these for my last z which had nothing in the lower stereo compartment. Originally i set up the machine to make 20 or so in different forms as i didnt know how they'd turn out. I inserted one into the facia panel with an l.e.d. backlight and it looked pretty cool and not a bit tacky. My new Z has the BOSE logo which i want to keep original. So as they're no use to me now , anyone who sends me a padded envelope ( they are made from glass and resin) with their address inside can have one free!!

Nice Black Z on the road near the Ernesettle turn on on the A38 in Plymouth. I was in a red Z. I was visiting folks in Plymouth. Jon

Fitted and what? I am in a bit of quandre! My seats need recovering but it is cheaper to fit aftermarket seats. I have been looking at cobra daytonas.......... but no one can tell me if they fit the Z, but you can try universal subframes!! any body tried this and if so how did it turn out? cheers Dave

Hi Guys, Anyone had one of these fitted from there? If so any good? Cheers, Dan.

Are there any signs to indicate the timing belt needs changing?

dont usually get car out in wet.and it had been left out in the rain all night had to go get some juice this morning nearest shell approx 5 miles away on the way it started coughing and spluttering would,nt accelerate,slowing down to nothing,then cut out re-started it and coaxed it home was busy, and had to leave it for an hour when i got back to it (it had dried up) started ok and ran ok got an apexi filter fitted could it be the filter that had got wet ?? or am i barking up the wrong tree.. :( any ideas ??

Hi All, Having bought my zed a few weeks ago with the world's most comedy 80s stereo in it, that incidentally doesn't work anyway, I decided to get a new headunit and maybe some new speakers as I wasn't sure what was already fitted. Anyway, I've now bought a Pioneer DEH-P80MP and am waiting for it to be delivered. Managed to get quite a good deal through a reputable seller on eBay including some 7" speakers and tweeters for less than the price of the headunit alone elsewhere so I'm pretty chuffed. Question is where to get it fitted? And the reason I'm asking is because of the number of electrical problems that seem to be manifesting themselves after people…

hi, ive got some 8 x 18 fronts & 10 x 18 rear wheels, what tyre sizes can be fitted? ive been offered x2 new 215/30/18 tyres (£60 each), my feeling is there prob a nats to thin, what do you recommend? thanks in advance, steve.

im thinking of junking both of the electric front cloth seats and removing alltogether the rear squab seat , i fancy the seats from an M3 has anybody changed their seats , and if so which type is a good type to fit , or shall i keep her standard ?? :confused: open to your sugestions guys and girls :bow: Steve

Worst case scenario. Just bought a Z32 TT on a J plate. It didnt even get back home when the power faded and blue smoke bellowed out both pipes. Compression testing showed no compression whatsoever for 3 cylinders. Ive been advised best way to proceed is to replace engine! Wheres the best places to get hold of one? How much do they cost?

Is this any good?? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=32094&item=7963733077&rd=1
