Have blue smoke guys but conflicting opinions, smokes a bit at idle when cold, let car heat up then no smoke at all at idle. drive away, blue smoke under boost or hard accel rev car up when sitting still a few times plumes of blue smoke everywhere cough, cough. I think turbo oil seals my mate says valve stems or a broken piston ring car runs perfectly but is using a lot of oil. Any help or other opinions before I start unbolting.

has anybody had their steering feel almost notchy when turning,but not all the time,just wondering where to start.

A Little bit petty I know, but the cig lighter no longer works after I shorted it. Checked the fuses in the footwell and none are blown. The funny thing is that everything else still works including the illumination for the ashtray. Any ideas. Mark

Help cant get the bloody window regulator out!Any body done it before?

Aggghhhh. My drivers dip light had stopped working. I checked the wires, they are fine. How much are we looking at for a new one? Are they expensive? I hear they are. Stuart

I have just bought a z and it is fitted with a sony head unit, only trouble is the rear speakers do not work. On the back of the sterio there is the correct wiring harness fited and all connections seem ok( havent checked coulour of wires yet) also does any body know of any decent speakers to fit to the rear?

What is the round metal box with a clarion sticker on it(I guess it is some thing to do with the sterio). the box is located in the rear drivers side speaker pod(in boot). you can see it if you remove the cover and speeker

I hate my car! It's been faulty more than it hasn't! Now the bloody heater is leaking too!

OK, fixed the huuuge vacuum leak (thanks to Andy Duff on the phone blowing down hoses ), and now the AAC is controlling the idle (disconnecting it, the idle drops ~50rpm).. But when opening the throttle any faster than very very slow, the revs drop almost to the point of dying, before shooting back up (dangerous in the wet ).. Anyone have any further ideas? Oh yeah, forgot to say - the reason I want to fix this hesitation asap, is that the clutch cable snapped in the Renault last night - so now I have no choice but to use the Z... and it scares me when it decides to hesitate like that.. Thanks.. Az [This message has been edited by aaronjb (edi…

Hi all I just found out that the reason that my HICAS light is on, is not the amount of fluid, but that the pump is not working. They guy saud they cost about 400 notes just for the pump Is that correct? Also, how much would it cost to fit it Thanks Matt

Guys as you know I have been around zeds for some years now, and more so of recent months having started Zed world etc. Point is I have got close up (steady!) with the underside of a fair few cars now and the rust levels are becoming a concern of mine and for the UK spec owner cars especially. Some years ago when grey import bullshit was prevalent and the motor industry were condeming imports for their poor spec comparison and poor parts availablity and indeed that imports where not undersealed so not suitable for this country unless done. Now this is by no way a put down just an observation but out of say every 10 cars I become involved with 6 will have a r…

Hi guys, I wasn't careful enough yesterday (or I was too fast) and I ended up with a scratched drivers side door and no drivers side mirror (it's in like a million pieces right now). I can drive with the door dented but I badly need the mirror. I live in Poland and I'm DESPERATE do get one. Does anyone have a spare for sale? If it was from a Pearl White car I'd be jumping up and down with joy. Also, I have a question. I haven't taken a good look at it yet, but I assume the whole mirror assembly is held to the door with two big Philips screws and it consists of the mirror and the whole outside triangular metal piece the mirror is attached to. …
