  1. BJV are pretty decent - http://www.wheelrefu....uk/contact.htm They will also collect your wheels if you are in a 30-40 mile area.
  2. I have had to go through some fairly deep water in the Z over the last few weeks. Only way of getting out of my village unfortunately. The water the 70 is stuck in doesn't seem that deep, unless he floored it in! The blue 50 on the other hand was past the exhausts which is plain stupid!
  3. Nice car! Not bad at 23 either, congrats
  4. Exact same tyres as me then, can only assume it's my larger girth Hmm, at the most, low profile and wide tyres are a disadvantage, aren't they? Honestly no idea, but wider tyres = more traction I get what your thinking but doesn't really work in the snow unfortunately. You actually want thinner tyres so the same amount of weight is on a smaller contact patch.
  5. You get 14 days from renewal to cancel/amend for free and its all done via email now!
  6. Brilliant idea - thanks mate. I'll let you know how I get on. He seems like a good catch with a 63 plate!
  7. We caved in....staying at the Bedford Wyboston Travelodge as it had a little chef next door
  8. Just checked prices for a travel lodge.... hmmm tempted myself now!
  9. Welcome! I imagine you got it cheap then
  10. Why don't you knock on his door on Friday with flowers?!
  11. Edit : Mistake
  12. Odd that I have never experienced it before...maybe it's because there is loads more water this winter.
  13. Front to back wouldn't bother me but as long as they were the same make/condition on each axle then that's fine. Yes its not ideal but the dealer isnt going to shell out £500 to get matching rubber is he?
  14. Seems expensive for none GT but TBH I dont think there would be another 53 plate out there with that low mileage. What colour is it?
  15. Had a google and it seems to do with the exhaust contracting rapidly after the water reducing the heat. Very odd!
  16. Fronts are in the manifold mate and will flag up as sensor one. Have you checked for exhaust leaks?
  17. Had similar problems with mine near Christmas mate. I cleaned all 4 sensors Cleaned MAF Checked for leaks in the exhaust/intake Took the car to Jez @ Horsham and he said the A/F ration was fine. Turned some codes off via the Uprev and its now fine. If the codes relate to the rear sensors like yours its fine but the fronts are the ones you have to worry about. Its highly unlikely both would go at the same time.
  18. Hello Guys, Anyone else experiencing this? With all the standing water we have been getting I have noticed the exhaust getting very loud and considerably deeper for about 5-10 seconds during drives. Checked the exhaust and no leaks/cracks I can see! My mates civic use to do this but never noticed it in the Z before. Cheers, Adam
  19. Wow! They look like a top job.
  20. 1. Put the car into “ON†without the engine started (hit the ignition button twice without having your foot on the brake) 2. Wait 3 seconds for the car to do a systems check (you know this is done when all the lights except your service engine light go off) 3. Do 5 full accelerator press and releases in 5 seconds (floor your car 5 times in 5 seconds) 4. Wait 7 seconds. 5. Floor the accelerator again, and hold it there for 10 seconds (approx).Your service engine light will turn off. 6. When the light turns off, take your foot off the pedal, and get ready to count. At this point, the service engine light will start blinking.It will give you a 4 digit code – the first number will flash slowly, followed by a slight pause, the next three numbers will flash quickly, all with a pause in the middle.10 flashes means a number “0.â€So if your car blinked 10 times, then 4, then 4, then 2 again, you would have a code of “0442,†which is your gas cap thing.Other codes can be determined by looking at a OBD II code reference sheet.
  21. Welcome to the fold mate! Remember your lovely GT from CCUK. Few of us on here use to own Gen 7's. Mine below: For your money the Z is a better all round package (Newer, higher spec) but I imagine the Cayman would be a more involved drive.
  22. Sold pending payment!
  23. For use with decats when an uprev has not occurred Purchased them from Japfest few years ago, cant quite remember the seller! £20 delivered.
  24. What's the tread depth on the front mate? Cant quite work out which is which on the photos I would just want the fronts if your willing to split?!
