hi all just a quicky prob done something silly, i fitted a new tps (i have an auto and the gear change was sloppy) it fixed the gear change but now the car idles at about 1700-2k rpm i set the tps at .47v at closed throttle is this correct? cheers again for the help nick

lol ill see what he can do, you said screen glare is bad u can get matt anti glare screen protectors?

you can skype call off them i think

beat me to it lol

i may ask my mate to look into it he works as a programmer for andriod hes just finished the bbc news app for android and i think hes after a new project hmmmmmm

are you running things like boost guages and oil pressure on it?

thats a kick in the balls sorry bout it mate hope it works out 4 ya

i was looking at doing this with the ipad on my other car, yours looks the nuts!!!

how didnt your last mot pick that up!?

same here ive only seen 1 and that was on bayswater rd in london

really? why do they do that? is it to do with gear ratios or something?

what did you take off/put back when you did the conversion? ie boost pipes, oil lines?

I wouldnt have thoght it would matter as slymagic said it think its just a variable resistor

In that case i may have to book it in at zworld fairly soon! Anyone know how much the full conversion is?

Hmmmm seriously considering the manual conversion auto's great on the mway but just came back from driving her in the twisty hilly b roads of cornwall and the damn thing drove me mad! Forever changing down then up grrrrr can u keep the cruise control if i have the conversion done?

Ha you ve jyxed it! I tightened it up and went out was all fine but the spade was still a tiny bit loose so i gave it a bit more and snapped it! Dont have a spare sensor do ya? Lol

Nice one fella bang on the money dirty contacts and a loose spade connector sorted now thanks for the help!

Hi all just drove down to cornwall and noticed that under accelaration the temp gauge drops quite sharply, it doesnt creep down as if more air throgh the car would be cooling down it moves about the same speed as the rev counter any ideas dont know if its always happend or just started ive never noticed it before. Oh and i dont know if its related but about 3 hours into the jorney i had the cruise control set and we started up hill almost got to the top and it felt like it started running on 5 cylinders so i slowed down and it cleared and was then fine for the rest of the jorney :s im shittin myself the the headgaskets on its way out. Any help would be great and as always much apreciated cheers Nick

depends if its scored the bores best 2 get it checked thogh itll olny get worse and therfore more expensive!!! lol

id have thoght it would still boost if the rings are worn tbh u might get some blow by on the pistons but i doubt that would affect your boost gauge, does sound like rings if it smokes when u let off the gas i reckon compression test like ashc said would be a good start

cheers guys ill have a look at both

footwell fuses might be worth a try could help pin the drain down, a wiring diagram would help massivly dont know if anyone on here would have one?

Hi all ive just boght a new spoiler from car.mad and i cant wait to get it fitted does anyone know any really good sprayers in the south east area? thanks again for the help Nick

could try unplugging it see if the drain drops off then youd know if it was the solenoid or the wiring?

sorry just read the post again ignore me lol
