  1. Zmanalex - I can do Sunday too. And yeah was having a lou-lou moment, maybe was thinking Pitlochry (???) PM me your postcode and what time best suits, and its a date.
  2. Zmanalex to the rescue. Are you available this Saturday? I'm Edinburgh, so its about 2 hour drive, well maybe slightly more seeing as I'm taking things easy with her.
  3. Thanks Brillomaster. I read that - someone else is also having fault code issues. And yes the sensor seems to be a known problem. How would they know if the timing chain has stretched. They did say that it doesn't happen very often and that they have only heard of 2 other cars having the same problem. I also phoned another garage and asked if they could do the work - replace the timing chain, but they said it needs to be a Nissan specialists due to the set up of the computer. Me - I haven't got a clue. I can do basics, water, petrol, oil, but thats about it. Anyone know of someone who can look at it and tell me honestly whats wrong and what needs fixing. Scotland if possible.
  4. Le Grande Dame is very poorly... Just had news back from Nissan Dealer with full diagnostic check. Code P0340 ABS code C1130 Apparently my main timing chain is stretched (should be 10mm, is 16-17mm). They've said I need a new timing chain kit and it will cost £1500 - £1600. Which I don't have. I've read through various threads about the cam sensor code. Is it possible the wool could be getting pulled over my eyes regarding the "replacement of the timing chain kit". I've had issues like this before, i.e. wool getting pulled over my eyes, I'm blonde and female and they can see me coming!! What do you think. Background to Cholula going to the garage. Came out of works car park on Wednesday night, turned left, stalled the engine, car started again, just thought it was me! About 5 minutes down the road, car stalled while driving. Was it me, was I having a bad day. Stopped and had a chat to the other half on the phone. Checked the battery was connected - was ok. Drove home, everything alright. Went into Asda. Stopped the car. Started her up again. Stuttered, bit rough, but started. Thought I'd get the shopping and let her cool off. Back to car about 20 mins later. Started her up - stuttered, bit rough, but started. Malfunction indicator light on, ESP off light on and TCS light on. Drives alright (although I've been driving her like Driving Miss Daisy), except for a bit rough starting, 3 lights as above on all the time. What are your thoughts? I've been looking for a Nissan Specialist in Scotland that can do the work - or at least look at it, without fleecing me.
  5. Here's the first load More to follow....
  6. Wasn't on it. Though would love to. Got up at 5am after arriving into Bologna earlier at 1am to see them before they drove off to Brescia. Missed Martin Brundle and Bruno Senna. Saw Bryan Johnson's jag but missed him driving off too. Was running around trying to take as many photos and just see the cars. It was all a bit mad. I've been trying to upload the photos to photo bucket but in Florence at the mo and the free wifi is a tad slow. I'll post up when can. Also went to Galleria Ferrari the following day - mmmmm.
  7. Just a taster...will post more when can. Not sure if this will work - apols if not.
  8. Happy New Year to one and all. Lang may yer lumb reek!!! Sent from the comfort of my sofa using fingers on the keyboard of my laptop. Lx.
  9. Spotted you having a bite to eat - in the car!!! Sent from the comfort of my sofa.
  10. Is there nothing sacred, nothing off limits! Hundreds, thousands of people running for fun..Fun...FUN!! Raising money for their chosen charities, their friends and families supporting them, cheering them on! What political motivation/justification for this!! What political statement? What?
  11. We don't celebrate Valentine's Day in this house either - too much commercial twaddle. I sometimes treat myself to asda's pink roses, they cost £10, over the past week, they are £20!!! I've always told the other half if he wants to tell me he's having an affair, he can buy me a valentine card. Not sure what would hit the bottom of the stairs first, him or the card!! We live in a 3rd floor flat. PS. Twobears - love the shoes, very Vivienne Westwood looking.

    Maybe I'm being thick, but in the second photo the car is the wrong way round but the reg is the right way round. Anyway, looks good - good luck!!
