  1. Mines almost always on re-circ too, I know that because every time I spray the windows I can smell it (and cover the whole car in screen wash thanks to the headlight washers Good point about the air con efficiency, I'm not convinced mines all that good. Re-gas?
  2. My air con is always on, it doesn't fog up when I'm actually driving but if I leave it for more than 2 minutes parked up it's fogged up again and takes a good while idling before I can see where I'm going. example last night I was out shopping, parked up popped into tesco then by time I got back it was all fogged up and had to sit in the car park idling for 5 mins waiting for it to half-clear before being able to drive off (also with my lights off too, bloody dash lights are always lit so I forget to turn the lights on hahaha) I guess I'll get used to it, just wondered if there was something up with it or if all zed owners have to deal with it.
  3. Is this common?? Only had my zed a month now but the windows fog up /really/ quick then take a while to clear. Especially the rear window, that fogs up and well.. doesn't really clear at all. Is this normal? I know all car windows fog up but the zed seems especially bad. I tried searching but didn't have any luck.
  4. Well that was quite a random video... but I do like the black ones. Stealth
  5. Can't argue with that I guess! where do I get me one? To add to the xmas wish list you see....
  6. Please don't hate me for this but I don't really know anything about car modifications... I saw a video of a 350z with a JWT on youtube, sounds good for sure, and now I know physically what it is.. but can someone tell me why I'd want one? because I suddenly want one but have no idea why and need to justify buying one I have a standard 350z, I'm not really looking into tuning or anything my only real plans are to eventually put a slightly fruitier exhaust on, and a stubby aerial haha. So, idiots guide to why I need a JWT pop charger please? sorry to thread jack
  7. Drove my Zed in heavy rain for the first time since buying it today, it is a bit slippy slidey but if you're smooth and don't make any sudden movements it's not really all that uncontrollable. I only had it sideways once and to be honest I was going slow so put it down to an especially slippery bit of road However, my zed is going on my dads drive when the bad weather hits, no way I'm driving that in ice, or leaving it on a road to be hit by other muppets. Unfortunately no 4x4 like last year now but I'll be crashing about in the Fiat Ducato to save the Zed!! Roll on summer....
  8. Re-post or not, I didn't know this and it has bugged me a bit so thanks
  9. See my post under your first post....... press and hold and it does reset the trip computer. press it once and it flicks between trip computer A and trip computer B.
  10. Trip computer... press to change from trip a to trip b press and hold it to reset it.
  11. Nice one cheers, I assume thats price per side and not for a pair. Will get some ordered soon and also do the penny/rubber washer trick as after searching it seems it's not meant to need two button presses and two hands to open the boot like the dealer told me As for the meet, I cant make that one unfortunately but would like to make a future one as it sounds like fun
  12. ... The tailgate that is..... If i open the boot the tailgate won't stay up only happened today. Is it a common problem ? I guess i need to replace the gas strut things that are meant to hold the tailgate up? If so any idea where to get them and costs etc?
  13. Sorry to hijack the thread slightly but how should the 350's clutch be? as mine is a bit on/off switch too and it's very heavy! Thing is though this is my first petrol car and I usually only drive vans, 4x4's or an automatic dodge ram. the van clutches are spongy as anything so I can't tell if my 350's clutch is on it's way out, normal or what..
  14. Can you reset the mpg counter then??? Is that why mine only ever seems to read 21.9mpg?
  15. To be fair, I had an L200 warrior before the zed and I think that probably cost more on fuel than the zed and obviously no where near as fun! So in retrospect the zeds fuel economy is pretty darn good!
  16. I agree, mines just for fun .. no commuting or anything yet I still seem to watch the guage like a hawk and worry about it blah blah... I think I'm going to stick a nice big sticker over the fuel guage so I can't see it and drive until the fuel light comes on then fill up
  17. I must be doing something wrong as I can only fit £65 in from reserve light and getting approx 280 miles at a guess, only had it for one tank full so far and didn't work out how to reset the trip until I was at half a tank Fuel economy sucks to be honest, but come on its a 280bhp sports car not a fiat panda. You don't buy these cars because they do 45mpg haha
  18. Hey, picked up a sunset orange 350z last week. It's my first sports car as I usually have trucks etc. (L200 Warrior, Dodge RAM) But decided to go for a car this time!! Love it so far! Looks great, drives great ... don't think I need to tell you lot that! No real plans for it if I'm honest I like it as it is, I want to sort the radio out though as I want bluetooth hands free and bluetooth media streaming from my iphone.. I'd imagine i'll go double din and a Sony unit like I had in the truck. (suggestions on a post card tho!) only other thing I want is some reverse sensors/camera as I'm not used to cars haha. I am seriously tempted to build a car-PC though... might start looking into that again. Don't really have any questions other than whats the best/most reasonable kit for reverse sensors and / or camera? For any other questions I'll do some searching before I ask too much!! Anyway, now to the fun bit.. here she is: 04 Sunset orange, 44k miles, GT pack, Rays alloys etc etc.. pretty much mint, can't find anything wrong or even any scratches (well, not that I've found!) just needs a good clean and polish up (its shiney but not shiney enough for me haha you should see my old truck! Click here for pic Hope you like
