  1. Hmm, the problem did go away for a while, has started up again in the hot weather. Doing it every few times that I start the car, then I restart it and it's fine..
  2. Thanks guys. Is there any way which I can determine if it is the 02 sensor, crank sensor or TPS? Or will I just have to replace each and wait until the problem stops..
  3. Thanks for the reply guys. After the last service my mechanic did say that the air/fuel mix was showing way out on his computer, I just put it down to having a big induction system and bigger than standard injectors. So you think it could be the 02 sensor or TPS? I might try them both, the cheaper one first..
  4. Are you suggesting I change the oil, or asking if I have? haha. I have had the car serviced about 2000k's ago.. New oil.
  5. Hey guys, I am having an occasional problem in my XRT. 02 BA xrt, aftermarket cooler, valve springs, CAI and tune. Every once and a while when I start my car and change from PARK to REVERSE or DRIVE, the whole car violently shakes and the revs drop and sounds like it's about to stall. I try to put it back to PARK and it continues with it's nonsense. I quickly turn it off and when I restart it, everything is fine. It has done it a handfull of times and only does it a couple of times per week, completely random. It has been running a bit rough lately, sounds like a miss on idle, but cruises fine. I recently replaced the coils too, hasn't fixed it. Trying to fix it all up to sell it! Any help appreciated, thanks.
  6. Can someone please take 2 minutes of their time to tell me how to upload photos to a thread? I'm trying to sell my car and want photos to go with the ad. I'm not too familiar with posting photos and it asks for a http address?? And I have tried searching the forums for help on adding photos, I just keep getting "no results". Obviously feel free to move this topic to where ever it belongs Thanks guys
  7. Are the HID kits expensive to get wired up? If not, I will buy one. Or can you just wire them up yourself?
  8. How much does it cost to get one of the HID kits wired up to use?
  9. Hey guys I have bought 2 sets of expensive 'phillips' headlight globes in the last 12 months, they keep blowing. Random sides just keep blowing. When I install them I wear gloves and be sure to try and not touch the globe, any suggestions on this problem? I have heard it may be because I have a lowered car... but not too sure why? Sick of forking out money for these globes. Thanks
  10. Disregard. Took the needle off and put it back on and it's fixed.
  11. Hi guys, have just had my dash out to glue back in the rings that surround the speedo and tacho, as one fell out under heavy acceleration. Put everything back together to notice that the speedo needle is now about 5cm below zero. I can move it back to zero by hand but when I turn the key in the car it clicks back down below zero. I must have hit it when I pulled it out or something? Any help would be appreciated as I am trying to get the car back together in a working order! I have tried winding it all the way up to 200kmph then starting the car, it just winds itself back down below zero again :( Cheers for any help! I will be patiently watching this topic...
  12. I have the behind foglight CAI and no light in, good ram air effect. I do want a grille to cover the hole though but cant think of anything..
  13. Hey guys, I have been using a cleaning product recommended to me by the local autobarn... I believe its a silicone type spray, it keeps leaving a greyish layer of filth on my dash, I can never get my dash looking neat and clean. It looks shiny when I first spray and wipe but then dries and looks like crap. Have tried armourall and a few others, just wondering what other people use? Also, any tips on cleaning the interior glass? I bought some supposed "streak free" cleaner and a "streak free" glass polisher, low and behold I HAVE STREAKS. Cheers
