  1. 2nd from the left I think
  2. Ah, so sorry! - I don't think I received a notification of your post, and I don't come on here much any more. Now sold on ebay
  3. Arcan XL30R 3 tonne low profile trolley jack. I used it half a dozen times, but it's too heavy for me to move around. Been stored in the garage the rest of the time, so looks a bit dusty but works fine. Still has the rubber puck on the jacking plate. Collection only from Basingstoke. £50
  4. About 4 years ago I fitted a Witter-style towbar with removable towball to my daily driver. It worked great until recently when I tried to fit the towball and it wouldn't fully click into place. The towball clicks into its receiver on the towbar and feels nice and secure (I can wobble the car around by pulling the towball), but the indicator dial on the towball doesn't move fully into the "safe" position. Has anyone had a simialr problem with a Witter removable towball that wouldn't properly click into place?

  8. Anyone like playing Elite: dangerous? I've seen it's currently 75% off for PS4, so will get myself a copy. Bargain at that price.
  9. Hey Stevie. Wondering if you have any suggestions. Yes I’ve searched a lot. Code 42. I’ve done the bypass to many Supras in the past. I have a manual non turbo. Did the splice bypass and still light is coming on. Any suggestions?

      Hi, sorry only just seen your message. Does the odo count up normally when you're driving? If not it suggests the odo has dry solders, or the speed signal isn't reaching the odo (wire between speedometer and odo may have a fault).

      If your odo does count up properly, the speed signal is getting from odo to ECU. Most likely cause is a bad solder joint on the bypass, or (less likely) a faulty ECU.

       

      Let us know how it goes please!

  10. It does, but you can use deionised water and change it regularly, and use a fine filter to prevent pumping chunks of it through the system. Flushing with a garden hose means there'll be tap water in the system, which would be a pain to get out. Problematic if you're in a hard water area (like me).
  11. Thank you for the updates! This is really good info, especially with photos too. Great tip with the 12v pump too, making it a closed loop flush

    I guess you've bought something that wasn't straight?

    Nice looking car slugger! However we got a dog instead of a new car, so I'll be keeping the 15 year old cmax on the road for a while
  14. They really know their stuff. Tim was chatting away and seems to have an encyclopedic knowledge about cars.
