I KNOW I KNOW! Give me a bloomin' chance! Only had it 12 odd hours! Will be cleaned NEXT weekend Too busy driving it this weekend
-
Yup... that is what I thought! Must be why I think it is quiet
-
Genius! EXACTLY what I wanted to hear. I think I have some Autoglym engine cleaner in the garage
-
Sorry peeps... Here, as requested... So... Standard?
-
the "Step by Step" I found says to cover all my bits ... and use a hose. Is that OK to do?
-
Cheers my good man... Found this... http://www.ehow.co.uk/how_6172908_use-g ... easer.html Suppose I better follow it to the letter. Thanks!

My engine bay is SO SO dirty! On my other (crappy) cars... I have always jetwashed the engine bay in the first instance (with the engine running) to get the most of the crap off. But I am NOT willing to do this on the Z. And not JUST because I have a CAI.... So, how do you start? Where/what would you guys start with for an awful, awful engine bay?
-
oooops! To be fair, I can see how the whole wrong fuel in the tank is easy to do. I have been driving a diesel for nearly 7 years now... going to have to REALLY try to make sure I only fill up with petrol! Oh... had a look at the xorst... I am still 99% sure it is DEFO an OEM. Specially after looking at the ones on youtube. I will txt the guy I had it from, but I am SURE it is standard. Looks/sounds NOTHING like the ones on youtube.

It did TODAY... Managed to get BOTH my phones to link to it! No idea why it wasn't working yesterday. but I am well chuffed it works. Im not used to things just working on cars. I am used to having to bash them about it bit first to persuade them Thanks for the help guys!
-
hmmm.. I tried searching for bluetooth with my phone yesterday... no joy May try again today with my phone... and my crappy works iPhone. See if that works... When I push the phone button on the steering wheel I get the "tryign to call" / "Disconnected" thing form the woman in the head unit Cheers peeps!
-
Anyone tell me what this is... and how I can make use of it? Installed in my 2003 GT Ta...
-
I have had some VERY loud exhausts in my time. This one has a decent note... but no where near as nice as the Blue Flames I usually have on my previous "sports" cars (if you could call them sport cars!) So, do I need to tell the insurance about it? I never knew it wasn't OEM! Insurance know about the CAI and the alloys. I am past playing the "don't tell them" game, too dangerous!
-
I have been VERY VERY lucky with forums. I found delsoluk, seatcupra, ultimatereef. All of which are full of peeps who are very helpful and full of great knowledge. And most importantly, who don't mind answering the same newbie questions... over and over again! And now, I have found here.... Im pretty fecking lucky! Cheers for all the help guys!
-
Yeah... I should do some searchys... It has a CAI "Pop Charger"... the cone is FILTHY.. need to replace or clean (gotta find out if it's cotton or mesh) Presume I could replace the cone with a greeny or something? I am pretty sure the Xorst is standard.. and not a "K1" (will have a search) Cheers bud! Just got the headlamp washers working. I had to put like 10 odd Liters (I SWEAR) into the bottle to get them to work... but they ARE working now Just had a look in the boot and the thing dropped on me! Presume the gas is going/gone in the struts... or it could just be that they are cold (Not THAT cold here today though!) I will get on the search button... Thanks again peeps!
-
Yup... I had the lights on ... and fluid was coming onto the windscreen, so I PRESUMED the washer bottle has fluid in. Just checked and I SWEAR I just put like 10L of water and screen wash in the thing! Good news is... washers work fine! Cheers bud...

HA HA ... searchy searchy! http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic. ... rs+blocked

Just been out to have another look. Like I said, there is the noise but nothing else. It sound like the washer pump is working, but the motor/function for pushing the jets out of the front of the bumper isn't working. Tried pulling them out manually a little myself and they seem to be on a motor, which doesn't seem to be stuck/seized. Any ideas peeps?
-
Can someone help me with a headlamp washer problem? The only bloomin' thing (I hope!) that I forgot to test before I bought the car! Push the button on the right/bottom of the dash and I get a windscreen wiper noise, but nothing happens. Can anyone tell me if I am missing something? Or if I need to do something else? Or if it is going to need "fixing" .... Cheers guys!
-
Sorry guys... it was just down the road for me. And I had the cash. At the end of the day... You snooze you loose! Hope you find something better on your Z-hunt. This "Pop-Charger" ... do you mean the CAI? And what is a K1? It's not that loud to be honest. Sound nice, subtle. Just how I wanted it. Cheers Will. Where will that be my good man? Might pop over, but I think I need to get to grips with the monster first!

Hey Zugara.... Thanks for pointing them out, but not my cup of tea... Plus the would be directly over the indicators that are there all ready, suppose I would have to have them blanked off? -

Oh... And the other (not as important) question was.... I have a weird black phone thing in the center cubby hole. Can anyone tell me what it is an how I can use it for hands free on a phone? Sorry for the newbie questions! -
OK... JUST picked up my Gun Metal 2003 GT! The only reason I'm not out in it now is because it is raining and this is my first RWD motor. One of the Z badges on the side of the car is missing. Can anyone tell me the best place to pick another one/pair up from? I am cool buying from eBay, just need to know which ones to buy. I'm happy with standard for now... Anyone help me out by pointing me in the right direction?
