If it didnt change at all into third or was having serious problems I would say solonoid in the box. Does it only do it from 2nd to third? Might be worth checking the line pressure.

Nice one :D thats another thing I know to look at for that problem now :)

Rubix cube, its a well know fact that 80% of rubics cube fights are won by meantally incapacitating or exhausting the other party! and the fights all start at roughly 1mm from the surface of your hand lol. I say the rubix cube would do all the others.

No idea mate, I just kept unbolting and cliping till all the bits come off so I could under seal it, guess that doesnt really help your question tho does it lol. Check in the online manual maybe? not sure it will have it in there but its poss?

Get em out and clean em out with a powerful solvent like me lol, that cost nothing. The pipes also can be hard to get off and most people say need replacing, but you can actualy remove the elbow peice that comes off the back of the hose. Meaning, you undo the valve, remove hose with elbow attached, then take the hose off. This means no dodgy bending or breaking of hose, and they are usualy in pretty good nick the stock hoses TBH, you probably will not even need to replace em! ;)

Generally they are pretty good cars, if well maintained and serviced regularly and you have got the history to prove it from the prev owner it should be fine. Having said that, no two cars have been driven exactly the same and under same conditions. As with any used car of this age you take a chance. Obviously if you are looking in the help / advice, you will see most people posting problems, infact, new people turn up from no-where who arnt club members etc and just come here to post problems and get help, not join in discussion etc. You wont get people posting on the help and advice or any board saying 'wow my cars running superb, not a problem for x time' just doesnt happen does it? So you are seeing the minority who have problems. With any car problems will occur tho as we all know, my other half bought a new honda accord and that has had more problems (imobilizer failing, unable to start car / get in several occasions, many elec problems + a few engine etc etc) than my Z has! All I will really say is, you get what you pay for with a Z. Buy one for 3k expect 3k's worth and dont complain if the turbos are shagged, or you get home and the rad pissed out water etc etc. A lot of people scrape together a few k and buy a dog, then rant it around for a bit, cant afford to fix problems and flog it on cheap and even more ****ed to someone else! If you buy a 6k+ you should get a goodun. That said you will run into the occasional muppet who will put a lemon up for sale for 7k just because he sees the good ones going for that and hopes he can get that money from an unsuspecting buyer! Take someone with you who knows about Z's or cars/engines as a whole and give it a propper going over!

yeh that what I meant lol, misread it :slap: Once had to drive 150 miles to some pikey to get a hub for a prev car I had, started off ok but a bit noisy, with 4 ppl in the car and the weight shifting as I went round corners putting on more pressure it was getting louder and louder and louder. I didnt think I was going to make it there! In the end had to fit it there, the old hub / bearings just fell out a load of ground up coffee beens it looked like lol. Then I kept getting attacked by his two german shepherds :O, and he was a french pikey at that!

Welcome to the board mate

mate if the rabbit out of the holy grail is involved then my moneys on that lol + U 2 would be bitching and fighting each other probably more than doing anything else lol ;)

? the swb doesnt have any pannels in the back just a partioned bit that goes to the boot? I guess you could rip ya seats out and pannel it in to extend the boot ?

yup excellant book mate, I couldnt put it down! highly recomend it to anyone else!!!

An old aston? (oops wrong link! DOH, working noW!)

Mate those loads more better ones than that, its fookin funny. Sad i know, but like I said when borred or need a larf I have a listen to some of the real funny ones, and no matter how many times it still cracks me up!

:rofl:

lol might do man, I called this garage in america the other day, was soo ****ing funny. They couldnt understand me, I couldnt understand them. We got on real well.

lol addict!

Yup all real mate, you can call him too if you want even got his phone no on the web!

Yup, at a guess right rear wheel bearing, when the weight shifts it will whine more. Gradualy the bearings will grind away and fall apart under the weight becoming very loud. No idea if they are sealed units on the Z and you need a new hub or you can replace individual bearings. Never done it or looked into it.

its fookin brill site mate, this guy who owns his own company just winds up all the telemarkets calling. So funny. ;)

God I cant beleive no one has checked this you are all borring!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lol you are a funny lad arnt u!

well, TBH speaking of just WWF, its all rigged, IMHO they arnt propper fighters, they dont have the motivation that a fighter has to win in the ring as the outcome is all pre-arranged. They are like puppets, they take a fall when they are told to, and act a lot more than anything. And whats the stomping on the floor thing when punching? to emphasie fake impact. Dont get me wrong, they are fit, and are trained athletes. But a lot IMHO are not fighters, mere fit actors, or sell outs who probably have lost / never had the edge.

What? duff sells them? fukin ell hes into all sorts now isnt he!

fkin ell me ear looks well shiney lol!

Back in the days when I smoked, :( ****ing aweful, to think of all that shit on me lungs :eek: no it ISNT BIG and its NOT CLEVER!@!!!
