How????? Which reflectors or puddle lights? Puddle lights are just bulbs in the door bottoms my Rex had them in the base of the wing mirrors. Great idea although everyone laughs when you tell them! Re: reflectors why not pop them out and drill a small hole halfway from inside to fit a red high power LED for example then pop the reflector back in - can't be too difficult really? Same for the puddle lights just use White LEDS they are small enough to conseal in the base of the door or card? ahh its always simple your problem then comes from powering them Well not really mate they are just LEDs run them off the interior light circuit - can't take that much power can it? how do you get that to the door? through the door connector...? has it got any spare pins to use? its a watertight connector so you dont want to muller it to get them through. plus attaching things to the dome lights is just a bad idea without protection as ive proven.

well it goes into the air and then gets burned in the engine resulting in 'nice' black pufff when when you accelerate hard. i mean where does the catch tank oil go?
-
does that not get cycled back anyway? and where does it go? back in the sump?
-
why? whats the purpose of said tank?

breather pipe i think

remove the gear surround by putting your hand in the leather and gripping it behind the knob and pull up. take the ribbon cable out of the back if of the AC controls swivel the ac control section out the way. take 6 screws out in total from under the stereo, two from the sides and 4 from further back under the white box in the cubby, remove the mat, take the screws out there, two of. lift the whole thing up from the bottom and pull the top srtaight out, there is a clip at the back near the windscreen be carefull not to break. under the triple guages there is a white connector to undo, the cable doesnt have much slack. start lifting the part out. thats the abridged version, there is a guide somewhere

How to - Change front brake pads on Brembo (pic heavy)
Husky replied to M13KYF's topic in 350Z Guides
Depends on the condition of your brake cylinders mate, if they are dirty clean them first then I'd use a piece of wood and push it between the old pads (sometimes this is hard and sometimes not) noob question (im an electrical engineer ) how would one clean his brake cylinders? -

fantastic guide, just what i needed with a change of mine coming up, i started considering doing it myself and this gives me alot more confidence to do it. thanks taking the cap off the reservoir is all you need to do to release the pressure to get them in/out? -

check there isn't an air leak letting unmetered air into the engine could be from plenum bolts not being down to torque? or could be crap earthing or could need a throttle body reset

cheers alex, im surprised as i started off for about 5 minutes being really polite as i always am on the phone and accepting all his snide comments and "witty" remarks. I was just letting them go but it was unreal, he was being a cheeky sod and treating me like dirt. Even from the way he said "how can i help you" he muttered it like i was inconveniencing him by phoning. im not looking for my brakes to be replaced or my clutch so i don't think i'm being totally unreasonable here. How can a CV joint be wear and tear when it started clicking at low miles and its not an item i can service or use in a less wearing way The gear box i already understood needed stripped and an independent inspection carried, so instead of asking me to do this and then phone them he tried to convince me that i should drive around with 4 gears only Anyhow, i phoned them back, got a nice lady called sarah and she told me the procedure i need to go through which i thanked her for and went on my way. Whatever the first guys problem was hes got himself a complaint to management tomorrow about his conduct to their customers. Warranty issues aside it was disgraceful. So... a CV joint, he said it has to explode all over the road for them to pay for it.. at 29k miles is it not an unexpected fault to be clicking loudly? same with the gear box

I know alot of you will already know this about paid for warranties but... Under no circumstances use scotsure warranty. I have one and im off to the toilet to wipe my arse with the most expensive bog roll i've ever bought. Ignoring if they pay or not pay and the whole normal warranty argument. The service i received was utterly appalling, rude, obnoxious, aggressive, ignorant. eg: Synchromesh in 5th and 6th gone Me: My 5th and 6th gears are very very difficult to get into and it appears to be a synchromesh problem. Warranty: We dont cover wear and tear Me: Its not normal wear and tear, its gone at low miles in an infrequently used gear set. Warranty: This is not a maintenance warranty it is a sudden fault warranty Me: It suddenly stopped letting me into gear Warranty: Your an engineer, you should know these things wear out over time Me: your a warranty service you should know thats an odd gear to be going and very early in the cars life to be maintenence, its a fault in the vehicle Warranty: Nissan should be fixing it then Me: we started the conversation by me giving you the number plate which is 04, i might be wrong but 10 minus 4 is 6 years in my book and nissan cover to 3 which is why i have your warranty Warranty: is the car stationary at the moment then? Me: no i need it to get to and from work Warranty: Well how are you driving it if the gearbox is gone Me: it is a 6 speed box and 5th and 6th have gone leaving me 1st through 4th Warranty: Well thats enough you can drive using them Me: its a car with a 6 speed box and your telling me that i should forever more drive around on 4 gears? so when the other 4 go your professional recommendation is to push the car? etc etc etc, we did this for each part of the car that was wrong, CV joints had to explode like dynamite, my window had to shatter and the motor to go up in flames, my arb drop links had to snap and fly off. you get the idea, i got pretty angry at this point and began shouting in the middle of a car park on the phone. Im beyond angry now and they told me that CS phoned them for the first time today even though they have been going on since november with him about this. They dont have a website btw, so if anyone has the ability to set one up using http://www.scotsurewarranty.com or such like be my guest. And i dont know how google looks things up but if this was at the top i'd be a happy man. i was robbed of 300 pounds. rant over **** ****ers **** munching **** faced ****s
