  1. OK I have a really annoying problem! Since having my rear brakes done 2 days ago ( discs, shoes and pads) I have started getting the handbrake warning light appearing on the dash randomly while driving. The handbrake has been adjusted to 1 click which is nice but im wondering if that could be fooling something into thinking it is up slightly? Also the same day some proper clever female passenger managed to spill my cappuccino everywhere while parked up. It mostly went on the drivers carpet and seat but also went down into the gear selector area, so I quickly remover the trim and dried out as much as I could with kitchen roll. The car has since been valeted and the warming smell of freshly ground beans has vacated the cabin! So I guess the question is could the coffee have disturbed a sensor or something around the interior handbrake area? or is it more likely to be mechanically linked to the change of brakes.
  2. Hi buddy, I fly these for a living. Good to see others getting involved! I have one of mine for sale in my sig below
  3. Liking the Sub box mate, really need something like this for mine
  4. Might be worth popping the dashboard panels off and checking connections. I will be doing something similar tomorrow as I have a few not working anymore.
  5. Update - found the leak after degreasing the entire front end and it is coming from the return hose where metal meets rubber. Does anyone know the hose spec? Gague etc?

  7. When you say worth a fair bit?? Don't think it's something I will ever use if I'm honest
  8. Same it looked aftermarket in my opinion and it isn't secured to anything, maybe it should be?
  9. Cheers guys, might give it a go and see if it works.
  10. Has the word conlight em scribed on it. Sits above the dash in the corner, haven't pressed the button yet.
  11. Welcome mate. I recently bought an N/A auto and it's a great car! I paid 3k and it's good not 100% perfect but near enough. I have a leaking power steering hose & strut top mount is worn on one of the rear coil overs. But it beats driving to England from Edinburgh for a similar one, just near in mind the N/A is still a thirsty powerful car and will require extra care in the wet trust me you can easily light it up coming out of every corner when moist lol
  12. Custom car badges do carbon fibre ones and not expensive
  13. I have a similar problem but I know the rear passenger strut top mount is worn badly and the wheelbearing on the same side is poor. I am replacing the coilovers asap and wheelbearings, but I will give the diff a check I will be going for a LSD pretty soon anyway.

    Driftlands ?

    Drift land is great now that HRP have taken it over from what was spedworth & known as thunder valley raceway. Facilities are good now with tarmac pit area plenty parking, cafe, indoor viewing areas within the ring, 80 mph go carts, grip days and loads more. Glad I live 20 mins from this place, real good atmosphere to
  16. Looks like it yeah, I'll have a chat with the guys over there regarding the ideal rate to go for.
  17. OK decided to go with HSD they seem to be just as good as BC etc for a bit less ££ from what I can tell.
  18. Because its an N/A wont it pass as theyre not listed? Also its none of my best mates that MOT's my cars
  19. Im still on the fence with this one but im leaning towards a single. I have a reasonable list of things to do first hopefully ill have either the single kit or a new lump for July.
