What is detonation?
Hi Vijay You see you learn something everyday, i was told that it put you into safety boost because it detected detonation or if the sensor went faulty it could put you into code 34 as well. I am learning...honest :D Kirbz

What is detonation?
Hi Mate Detonation can happen when your running too hign boost so my first question would be have you upped your boost? it also could be a faulty det sensor which is quite common. By resetting your ecu it will get rid of the code 34 but it will come back again if it is reading detonation. Do you have an after market boost controller? because even if you get detting the ecu will put the car into safety boost but being as a boost controller over rides the ecu's boost settings so you wont notice a difference in performance but beware if your getting detonation you can cause major problems like blowing a piston ring etc so worth checking out. Detting sounds like some stones in a tin box being shaken. I'm sure more people who are more technically advanced than me can help more but it gives you an idea Cheers Kirbz

Was Di Killed?
Like everyone say who give a toss and if you ask me, everyone used to go on how good she was and how she used to help the children...yes because she was paid very well to do it and did she ever look like she wanted to do it...no always looked like she lost a tenner and found a pound. But as usual lets spend millions on looking into it....ahhh it all makes sense now spend more tax payers money on shite like this and get traffic wardens to fine us motorists even more...blair dont you just love him, shame he wasnt in the merc with them :rofl: Lets hope that the bull terrior finnishes off more royals Kirbz

Manual Boost Controllers vs Electronic
Be very careful chris i was running 1.33 bar or 19 ish psi and i blew a 2 inch piece out of my piston:cry: The standard internals of a zed will not withstand that sort of boost so if your gonna run 1.5 bar then it wont last for long!! Just speaking from experience Kirbz
