lol no idea mate, wait for the experts

thats because in hold the car is moving off in 2nd gear so you dont get the 1st to 2nd change

so u guys definately think its a whack radiator cap then?

yes it was defo on properly cos i could feel th pressure when i turned it open to test it, obviously i didnt open it

so does that mean my cap aint working as it should andy or maybe the overflow reservoir is blocked up?

well its a pretty new rad, only been in for about 10000 miles, you reckeon its working as it should or do i need a new cap?

took the car out yesterday on short trip to pick my brother up from college and th weather was really nice, a lot warmer than it has been for ages. after parking up i went out to fix a wobbly passenger mirror and noticed there was a small stream of liquid coming from under the car. had a peek underneath and the leak had definatetly stopped and it looked like it was under the radiator. so popped up the bonnet and saw that the top of the rad were the cap goes was all wet, cap was screwed on. is this supposed to happen? i really dont have the foggiest yaseen ps. fixed th wobbly mirror, the metal plate that the screws went into had cracked apart so just superglue gelled it backed together n its fixed! screws were a bitch to get back in tho

thanx chris il go have a look

lol shut it

guess wot? took th car out today and not a sound at all, no ticking! :)

off topic but scott im still waiting for your cheque if you want that centre trim panel

got to agree, brilliant ad, got the whole version sent to my house on cd for some reason, oh well thank you honda

lol i bloody well hope not!

yeh i park on a slope facing down but have never heard this sound before. checked th oil the other day and it was fine, il check again later could it be a belt making the noise?

hey tony, sorry to hear about the problem, hope they can sort it. so what do you do at cummins? i would have liked to work their cos its close to home but i dnt mind working for holset for a year, hopefully il get to learn alot while im there

switched the car on this morning to park it on the curb so the alarm fitters could work on it and there was a quite loud ticking from the engine bay. these things always seem to magically happen overnight cos i took it out yesterday night n it was running fine! the ticking speeds up as the revs increase but when i lift the bonnet i cant make out where its coming from cos th engine is louder than the ticking. took it to the bank and it kinda quietens down after a bit of a drive but il have to check again later to make sure. any ideas? yaseen

thanx guys, all done now

yeh rich the red ones mine and yes i bought it from andy in solihull, i think i got a great example for the money i paid, no major problems, just annoying little ones that i dont know how to fix yet but i know can be fixed pretty easily and cheaply. lol love th picture

having my alarm fitted this morning and the guys are scratching theri heads over where to fit the siren any suggestions? yaseen

thinking about it your absolutely right about that stuart what is tram lining?

these cars just dont give up do they! so i sorted the hose that had come disconnected thanks to you guys but my idle is getting really bad, symptoms: - when the car comes to a stop the revs drop reaaaally low (sometimes less than 400) and most of the time the engine just about stays alive - sometimes it stalls so now iv got into th habit of sticking it in neutral before i stop which i shouldnt have to do cos its a bloody auto - after dropping, the revs rise again but hunt around a bit before finding the magic 700 - even after settling at 700 it sometimes jumps around a little then settles for a while, then jumps and settles etc.... do i just need to do a lot of cleaning? berks thought it might be intake and throttle bodys full of crap. what else could it be? yaseen

yeh me too! il be coming barring any last minute hiccups is anyone whos coming got a consult they could bring?

oh well, it was only a suggestion

thats a pretty good idea, would it work on an import? i no id need to get 4 new wheels as there all the thinner ones bazza do you have any problems of tyres rubbing arches?

dnt worry kevin i aint forgotten bought you yet, just waiting to hear from those listed above before i start offering to others
