Still clunking....
Hi RobH, Get exactly the same thing and have done ever since owning my zed for the last 2 years. Have never been able to diagnose the reason for it, so I to would be interested to hear other views on how to resolve this. Cheers, Deano:)

Hot Cat
Hi Rod, Just to let you know that I have cleaned the contacts to the ecu which were quite badly oxidised but the problem still exists. :confused: I have been advised that it could be my O2 sensors, I am going to disconnect them and try it on a long journey one day. Would be interested to hear if how you resolve this. ;) Cheers, Dean.

O2 Sensor replacement?
Hi Pete, What are the symptons that make you think you need to replace your 02 sensors....:( The reason I ask is that I have been getting a hesitation problem at about 2-3000 rpm after about 1/2 hours driving. I have been advised by a few people that it could be my 02 sensors causing this. Have you experience anything similar ???? Cheers, Dean.

seized Dump Valves
Hi Stu, I have disconnected the vacumn pipe, this is the one that goes down to the original recircs but I did not cap it off. Is this the main pipe you mean??????? I have taken some photos which I will mail to you later tonight. Cheers, Dean

seized Dump Valves
Sent you an email.... do you get goosehonk with these fitted. I have a had a set fitted but the I can still hear goosehonk although not quite as bad. The existing recircs are still installed with the small pipe disconnected. The recircs must still be passing by but how do I stop it presumably you can't just remove them completely. Any Ideas????????? :confused: :confused: Cheers, Dean

Red light & Hesitation
Been doing a bit of searching and have found a write up on stu(smw1) website detailing how to check and change the o2 sensors so I will be giving that a go. Cheers, Dean.

Red light & Hesitation
Still got the hesitation fault, see earlier in post. I have had the injector connections checked and they are all fine. Would fitting new spark plugs help any.???????? I have been told that it could be the o2 sensors playing up. :confused: :confused: Anyone know how much these are to fix and if is it a big or small job. Cheers, Dean.

Don't let friends drive the Z
Hi John, Glad you are OK mate, real tough luck..... I hope you get a new one sorted soon. I don't know I get my car back and then you smack yours, guess we will have to postpone our mini-mini meet till you get another. Hang in there.... Dean.

gauges!
Hi Steve, You can find details of the panel at www.swgmotorsport.com It takes 3 x 52mm gauges and is quite easy to fit as others have said. Let me know if you need more info. Cheers, Dean.

Bits n bobs.
Hi Matt, Congrats on your new Zed, knew you wouldn't be able to stay away. I have an Autometer mechanical Temp gauge and sender if you are interested. It is unused and boxed and you won't have to fight me for it. :):):) You can have it for £40.00. Let us know if you are interested. Cheers, Dean

Super AFR settings
Hi John. No mines Silver, you can find pics on my website at http://www.myzx.co.uk The red you have seen is Pete Shrimp I think, he is on here too. I use mine on the odd day to work in between walking and cycling. Not at the moment though as it is at the garage having a new 99 spec bumper fitted along with some other performance enhancing mods. Look forward to getting together when it is back :) :) Cheers, Dean.

gauges!
Hi, The centre panel that SRRAE used is a MkII Golf GTI one. It doesnt fit exactlly into the top din but get a file or sand paper and take a little bit of the pod off and it fits. Its the closest thing you will get to fit. If you want one I have one that I was going to use. You can have it for £15.00 delivered. I also have an Autometer mechanical water temp gauge as well if your interested. Cheers Dean

Super AFR settings
Hi John, Somebody else from Kidderminster ;) ;) surely not. Do you use your Zed regularly cos I haven't seen it about. In fact I rarely see any zeds around my area and had come to the conclusion that I was a loner. Would be great to meet up sometime. Cheers, Deano.

Floor mats
James, I would defo be interested in a set of mats if you can get a group buy or discount sorted. Been looking at these for some time so would be interested to see what yours look like. This would be a good comparison as my car is silver too. Cheers, Dean.

cj I have the very same one for sale £15 delivered if you want it. It takes 3 x 52mm gauges. I have also got a mechanical water temp gauge as well if your interested. Cheers, Dean.

Best Bovs
Does anyone know where I can get Dump valves or BOVs for a reasonable price? A lot of people seem to rate HKS but there was also a rumour that Blitz were going to join the party soon, is this true. Will need to do a phone around but don't know who to try. Can you help. Cheers, Dean.

Cavalier King Charles Spaniel
Yeah... We used to have 2, a tri colour called Cassie and a blenhiem called Charlie but sadly we lost Cassie a few years ago. Still got Charlie though but he is getting on as well so is a bit slow on his feet. When he was younger he seemed to have a boundless energy and was a constant joy. Better make sure that you don't ever sit down otherwise your lap is theirs. Enjoy him. Dean
