Wdidt? Didnt fix the Idle control in the end, too busy and didnt wanna break it without looking up stuff first. ALSO, confirmed my start date for basic training :) ... Right before my MOT, and i'll still be there when my insurance renewal is due too! What a blimmin faff! Oh and i cant take...

No even mines not that low

Hi Polly, quick question. I'm trying to fix/clean out my idle control valve and been told you knew the setting on datascan to get it to open up so I can clean it without manually dismantling it and making a faff? Any help you can offer is appreciated :)

That's next on the list mate :) And maybe max... Maybe when I get home on the pc.

Wdid? Couple of days ago actually... Fixed the oil leak from the side panel and got help from Chris to clean the bay, its gleaming now! Also visited both fusion motorsport and Matt humphris and got some excellent advice and info about future planned mods and repairs/upgrades :)

Cheers mate :)

Months, cause you have to do it around other commitments

I don't think I can come now, meant to start basic training on the 2nd, just waiting for confirmation now

Just get some second hand corsa ones the modding is very minor and if you have tools its free

Be older and pass sooner... Duh :p. Sounds **** though mate unlucky, chin up and get on with what you can though eh?

Wdid? So far... Fixed the high beams, sidelights and number plate lights. All three plate light wires had sheared totally in the flex part! Been like that for a year lol. Next up fix the leak from the scuttle panel and then order new coilovers to fix before my mot next month.

Hmm... irritating, you could always use cable ties as mentioned, or maybe try to work the holes or clips to meet better somehow? Time for ingenuity i think eh

Possibly, have you taken out and refitted the clips to the grille before putting it on? Could check theyre all still tight, one of mine's a bit iffy so i put it somewhere under less strain (then replaced it)

Mine has nothing at the very ends, just those two on either side of the main grille and then the normal ones around the opening and in the centre

You'll pay for the replacements then :p

Cheers, I'll look into it :) we'll see what they do eh?

Good point, when(if) they get back to me i will ask. and i dunno but it jarred the hell out of my back! lucky i've already done the army selection/medical tests haha

Stroppy yet mildly worded email sent. However i feel a tit as i thing i got nsf and osf mixed up... oh well! still a blown shock whatever side its on!

yeah got photos at the time. Having looked up the process i really doubt i'll bother, its just not worth all the hassle for what maybe fifty quid if im lucky. I'll just carry on griping and despising them as i always have. Dug out my old shocks and springs to fit later. Back to the old grinder...

I had oncoming traffic and also it surprised me, didnt look that bad til i hit it. I thought i'd taken the smoother route as that whole bit of the road is a mess. Still, gonna have the front set up off later and go back to stock shocks and chopped teins so i can drive a slightly less broken car...
