It does the job, you can use the software that comes with it or download other sofware compatable with the ELM chip. It depends what you want to do, if you want something that will tell you error codes and reset lights then it does that well. Only thing you need is a laptop. R

I bought one of these when i had my remapping business on the go http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Car-Diagnostic-Co ... 240%3A1308 Its more than sufficient for reading error codes and resetting EML lights. Plus its only £40. R

My girlfriend has that knob in her almera (no crude jokes please) R

Well I hear mixed views. I've been attempting to clean mine with some TB cleaning spray without moving anything as I hear you can knacker them. However in the States they just say its ok to move it but you might have to perform a couple of resets of TB closed position learning and idle air learning. But they're quite easy. Tempted to whip mine off as its filthy and I'm convinced it causes the car to stall on turn over (you know when it blips on start, mine then stalls) and since giving it a spray yesterday its much better as it starts, then drops, just enough to not stall, but not far off. You guys replacing the gasket after you removed the TB? It says in the service manual that you're meant to. The gasket looks mint TBH cant see much need too. I got some tool cleaner from halfords and gave the TB a good few sprays and agitated it with a clean paintbrush. Its looks like a new pin now. I've given it a paint so im waiting for it to dry before i refit it. I will let you know if i've knackered it tomorrow R

Noooooo don't paint the car white!!!! as much as i love the new white cars, the black is awsome, especially with those wheels and new fat a*s!. Personally I think it looks sweet as is. R

Phew...thanks R

sweet R

Hey, I have just received my shiney plenum curtousy of sunset350z it looks braw! I have taken the TB off to give it a much needed clean whilst im at it (what a mess of black sh*te in there, i couldn't believe it). Anyway does anyone know off hand if when the throttle is closed (ie engine off) if the gate in the TB is fully closed or is it ajar slightly? thanks Ross

Yeah ninian was with petrofac unfortunatly R

Where in the north sea do you work mate? I worked in the Brents for a while and a few of my mates work offshore? Hi, Just finished on the Ninian south and now how a two year contract for the Elgin/Franklin platform. What do you do? R

Hoots mon! R

Damn...gotta be quick on here

I have an engine cover for sale in the trading section, if anyone is interested rather than risk painting your own. R

Looks nice....very professional looking on the battery/fluid covers. R

Thanks 3FIDDY that would be a big help R

What rubber have you got on each corner....its recommended that you stick to the same tyres all round and keep them all pretty much equal in tread depth. Your car will not handle correctly otherwise. HTH R

The general type of driving in Aberdeen is.... "GET OUT OF MY WAY CAN'T YOU SEE IM RICH AND HAVE A RANGE ROVER......BLAH BLAH BLAH, I SEE YOU QUEUEING BEHING ME WHILST I TRY TO PARK THIS OBSCENE WASTE OF RESOURCES INTO A PARKING SPACE WHICH IS OBVIOUSLY WAY TOO SMALL BUT I DONT CARE.....AH TO HELL WITH IT I WILL JUST PARK IN A DISABLED SPOT BECAUSE IM RICH AND I CAN DO WHAT THE HELL I LIKE BECAUSE I HAVE MORE MONEY THAN YOU......PEASANT". Aholes R

Cheers bud. R

Correct. Had them all in but 2 threads got damaged re fitting. Will re thread it and re tap the hole when I find out the size! As I said, trying out different combos on the bolts now to see what works paint wise. Make the most of the situation! Hi Stew if you manage to get a thread tap gimmie a shout....i've just done exactly the same thing to 1 bolt. Damn honestly those bolts are as soft as s*it. R

looks and nice bag (snigger)

You could stretch some black tights over the headlights, 80's style! R

No probs, and welcome to the site. Pop in by the intro section and get some pics up of your zed. R

The amp on one needs to be connected to the blue/white wire coming from the new headunit. This will fire up the bose amp when the stereo powers up. You must ground the unit well to the chassis otherwise it will not work correctly. Hope this helps Ross
