  1. I used Fuchs Titan Race Pro S 5W-30 Ester Synthetic Engine Oil for my Oil change. Can you explain VVT's and what I need to do to check? That should be fine The VVT's (Variable Valve Timing) are at the front left and right sides - if they have sludge in them or the oil is thick then they may not work properly but as the oil heat up and becomes thinner they come back to working fine again. You could take them off and give them a good clean - or just put new ones on to test - only 4 bolts and an electrical connector - I think I have a spare set you can borrow I would agree that a throttle plate reset/relearn from above is a good one to try and costs nothing to try - not sure about the MAF clean although it will do no harm (if done carefully) why would it be OK hot - usually you get rough running associated with a dirty MAF as well - which you don't have. Hope it helps Thanks, I will take them off and clean them with some brake cleaning fluid in the meantime I will try resetting the throttle plate once I've found out how to do it.
  2. Power is fine, I dont have any flat spots, The car runs fine after the initial start problem.

  4. I have 2003 350z that has cold air induction, plenum spacer, berk HFC's, Milltek exhaust and I has an Up Rev. The past few weeks I noticed that when I start the car first thing in the morning the rev counter starts bouncing between 300rpm and 1.5k rpm. The car seems on the verge of cutting out, a couple of times it has done so and yesterday it took a lot of cranking to get it started. The car has been serviced about 4 months ago, its had new plugs and a new battery within the past few months and I only use V-Power fuel. Apart from the cold start issue the car runs fine. Can anyone point me at what I should be looking at to solve the issue?
  5. I bought the uprated SGS lifters, swapped the helper springs out, and removed the boot weight. The boot still wont pop, I have even tried sticking 6p worth of pennies in and I still end up having to hold the release boot while I lift the boot. BTW - I have a nismo spoiler.

  7. BTW - if your planning on using that tablet, then I think you will find that it is about 11mm to big to go into a stock sat nav cubby, unless you plan on removing the lid completely.

  15. Thanks for the replies are there any TV models I should take a look at?
  16. I am planning on upgrading my current 50" LG plasma tv to something larger 60 - 65" with passive 3D. I know 4k Tv's are the latest tech, but I am not really sure if I would notice the difference, and there doesn't seem to be a lot of 4k content about. Has anyone got any recommendations for a decent sized TV? I have about £2k to spend and the only real criteria is: 1) Must have 3D. 2) Must have Freeview I already have a Panasonic DMP-BDT460EB 3D Smart Network Blu-ray player and an LG NB3530a soundbar and sub.
