i was caught doing 100+ in a 40 and got sent on the course but thats cause they never actualy caught me with the gun so it was there word against mine and we both agreed the driving course would be a better option a court case. bonus on my side was i was actauly caught there and then by the officer and was able to appeal to his goodside since its just an automated service thats got u might be worth going to court for it. just depends how many points u have and how this will effect how long your off the road for

get out the guns and turn the star screws they dont come out they just spin round in the plastic housing. once both are off center will come out unclip the air bag and undo the 17mm bolt leave it so its just on the shaft and tap the wheel at the top and bottom side to side. and then get the guts out and try pull it off again keep doing so till the wheel comes off and try not to smack urself in the face .

well for ages ive had no heating and a wet pass footwell so put it down to heater matrix. went to swap today and when i was looking at bolts to remove to get dash out i spoted the cable that operates the hot/cold was stuck. decided to free it up then try heaters again and they working spot on now. but that doesnt answer why my passanger side footwell has a built in swimming pool?. car has lost a little coolant prob about half the expanstion tank but thats since i changed the thermo about 3 months ago so doesnt seem like a massive amout of coolant considering the pass footwell it totaly soaked and i felt all up the carpet its just the floor pan bit thats wet the carpet that runs up the bulk head is bone dry. so am in two minds if both probs were unrelated and it was the heater cable causing the heaters not to work and a dodey door seal or something causing the swimming pool. one question that might clear it up is i presume the heater dail controls the waterflow into the heater matrix so if this was always closed ( due to cable being stuck) would there even be any coolant in the heater matrix for it to leak? cant decide if its worth actauly swaping the heater matrix considering what a bitch it is to change. any input be great. cheers shaun

mine had the same prob i swaped to coilovers and made it alot better but still feel theres something lacking ( not sure if its cause am used to civics which handle very tidy as stock). once the misses has stoped spending ma wages on xmas presents gonna look at poly pushing the lot and prob replacing track rod ends and such as it all looks to be original so after 13 years they prob could do with a change

i been having some idle issues after cars been took out for a good drive and it gets restarted. changed thermo for an unrelated issue and didnt change anything. when it was geting maped they were playing around with tps and idle control valve and didnt seem to a be a prob with that. done a bit of browsing and i think for me its prob gonna be the coolant tempt sensor as this can cause it to act funny with revs and will make it overfuel cause its trying to cold start when the engines up to temp. so might be worth taking a look at the tempt sensor to
