Anyone have Chris's address i need to post something back.... Thank you

Same happened to me although it just slips out then rubs.....

Thought so...... I'm in Hanwell

Can someone tell me first what size tyres on a UK (front). Also can anyone recommend some quiet and grippy????

First what should the standard boost read in bar is it 0.7? How do you adjust the clutch biting point? Found a nut behing the pedal but doesn't seem to do anything....

Thanks

Has anyone heard from Chris @ Greddy in the last few days? Doesn't seem to be replying to e-mails or phone calls? Anyone hears from him can they let me know areid@empiredesign.co.uk Thank you guys

Apologies just wrote this after the last two posts....i'll wait for Mac to reply. Thanks for your comments guys all appreciated!

You're all missing the point it wasn't tested at all, it was in the Sates for two months before it came back. Oh yes and it wasn't a massive post hole it was a bump in the road but surely this wouldn't have broken something inside the car...how come every other electrical part including the radio cd changer (with moving parts) are all fine the only faulty unit is the controller i'm not saying this is the cause but just trying to work out why it stopped working. Surely there should be a warning on the unit (by the way if you go over a pot hole this unit may stop working?????) i don't think so somehow. If i used this approach with my clients i'd be out of business.... Believe it or not i still have faith in people and still hope it can be resolved with everyone happy, however that's up to Chris as i am just a customer who's given out a few hundered quid to buy something recommended by him and others. I still can't see why after a few months you have nothing if it goes faulty, all that money has just been wasted that's what i feels unfair..if i bashed it with a pick axe fair enough but it's just been sitting in my car as it should have been.........

Seeing as you've made yourself aware Chris you only ever pointed out your warranty which went straight to the Greddy site with no mention whatsoever about a 90 day warranty. It took a month to get it back to you as you kept asking me to try different things to try to fix it this i could only do at weekends when i had time, i suggested sending it back to you in the first place but you kept putting me off. The 60-90 day warranty is nowehere on your website or the receipt..... you should make people aware of this.I bought it from you as i didn't want to buy one from e-bay with no warranty. Lets face it Chris it wasn't tested was it and i have the unit here to prove to anyone it was not tested there's no RA number and you couldn't supply it? You also only told me after i pushed that you dealt with a North American company who bought it from Greddy in the States who will not deal direct with the UK in fact it's Japan who does this.......you also told me it was sent back to the States and tested which was not true as no RA number was issued and again when i pushed you for an answer you told me "there wasn't one". I bought this from you in good faith understanding that you were a dealer interested in repeat business and fair trading. You have now washed your hands of this and refuse to take my calls why? Any other dealer i'm sure would have done all they can to keep me updated with how the situation was and what was happening.....you didn't you felt it incovenient that i was asking you what was going on. Sending an expensive piece of kit back to me in a brown jiffy bag with no explanation or report of any kind in not professional. Pointing me to another parties terms and conditions is also not proffesional and giving me a one line e-mail saying "my supplier says it's out of 90 days nothing i can do" is also not helpfull. I thought you were a Trader interested in keeping a reputation and helping us to make our cars special? As you won't return my calls and give one line e-mails you're obviously not interested in helping me are you? However i would ask as suggested by someone one more time to restore my faith is there anything you can do to help?

It's a shame this couldn't have been sorted out some other way but i think this is my only route....... It's also a shame it's a trader from here......

He says it's the manufactures but as my previous post states.... Besides i bought it in good faith from him not them....

To add he states his supplier has a 90 day warranty. The link for terms and conditions to his website makes not mention of a 90 day warranty........

Not happy at all about this but want to ask advice first before i take this further????? I've bought a Profec B spec 2 controller off a trader and discovered around 3 months of having it the thing just stopped working. I was told to try lots of differents checks which i did changed all the hoses checked and double checked everything till there was nothing else to do but sent it back. Rather than doing the decent thing and swapping it for a new one i was told it had to go back to the states for testing.This took two months and i was told there was nothing wrong with it,no test report no nothing just "it works". Still not convinced i decided to take it and swap with someone who had one i knew was working and discovered my was definately faulty.When i asked for a repair number i wasn't given one and when i asked to speak directly to the supplier who was repairing it i was told i was not allowed to???? I was then told that the unit would be exchanged but after 3 weeks i have now been told it's out of the 90 day warranty therefore i'm stuck after spending money and wasting lots of time with a faulty unit i cannot use and won't be replaced???? This is not good service......what should i do?

Mine used to do this and i think it turned out to be the AIFF and took it apart cleaned it and the throttle bodies and it seemed to be ok after that! There is a link to this but you need to do a search.....

Anyone know a performance specialist in London not too expensive and reliable?

Hi Dave you still ok ffor this evening? Call me 07944 045178. Cheers

Thanks guys ended up with one from Nissan 065 and £47 seems to work ok./...

Anyone know where in London i can get a battery as Halfords told me it's 3-4 days to special order one?????

Hi Dave Wednesday would be perfect can you give me a call to arrange something? 07944 045178 Thanks again for your help. Alex

Might be able to, i'll let you know if i can pop round tomorrow evening. Cheers Alex

Sounds good, that way i can test if yours works as just plug and go.... How are you fixed for this weekend probably take about 15 mins?

A Greddy Profec B Spec 2 as i need to be 100% sure mine is faulty.The only way would be to quickly swap it over in the car for one that i know works. Ideally someone in the London area would be good. Either mail me areid@empiredesign.co.uk or call 07944 045178. Thank you Alex

Cheers Eric i'll give it a try right now i'd eat my own hand if i knew it'd fix the problem...... Any other ideas drop me a line. Thanks again Alex

Scratching my head so much i've worn a hole in it????????? I had a problem with my Profec B Spec 2 controller after driving over a bump in the road (i think this night have something to do with it). I parked the car 2 minutes later then after about 2 hours drove off with no boost on either LOW or HIGH all i was getting was 0.5bar..... Checked and double checked all electrical connections to the solenoid and the controller. Solenoid definately working as when i apply a current i can hear it click.Also i have power to the controller and all the settings are still there.Also double checked all the hoses and all are connected fine with no apparent air leaks.Gave the conroller and solenoid to Chris at Greddy who sent it to the states for testing.I since put in 1mm boost jests and was getting just under 1bar boost so assumed it was the controller.3 months later i got the controller back from the states and re-fitted today only to find on LOW and on HIGH i'm still only getting 0.5 bar boost? (safety???) Could anything have come loose or slipped off when i went over a bump? Are there any other electrical connections that could effect this and cause only 0.5 bar? Any help would be greatly appreciated as i've no idea what else it could be now???? If anyone has any ideas call my mobile this weekend 07944 045178. I'll be on line for the next half hour Thanks for your help Alex
