  1. I've somehow managed to scuff the upper section of the passenger dashboard. Is there a way of getting rid of these scuffs or am I looking at replacing the dash board piece? I've read somewhere that if you gently use a hairdryer you can rub the scratches away has anybody tried this?
  2. Sorry what i meant is i'd rather pay a bit more and get a good branded stereo
  3. To be honest I don't mind what i spend. Id rather have a quality stereo and pay more. the audio people only supply alpine and pioneer. There the two brands i am looking for.
  4. Okay, Ive actually got a car audio specialist near to where i live. So ill just go along there and have it done
  5. Well after nearly three years of skipping I have decided i want to change out this crappy bose head unit. I want to keep the speakers and the steering wheel controls. Has anyone done this? If so, is it fairly easy? Also I haven't got a clue on what double din unit to get? I'm not to worried about price. Any links or advise would be much appreciated
  6. Does anyone know the best solution to fixing the peeling silver bits on the steering wheel? Is there somewhere you can just buy new ones?
  7. Yeah so happy! It's weird but I missed it so much, even though I had an s class I'd rather have the zed any day! Granted they are completely different cars. It's given me the kick to have the front resprayed And the wheels done now ðŸ˜
  8. Hi guys, I got the zed back today from the repairers and its good as new It needed a new rear bumper and light. Nothing structural at all! Soooooo nice to back
  9. Yeah me too! There picking it up on Friday. The garage sound fairly competent. they said the car would go on a jig and make sure no structural damage is present. The up side is I have an Sclass for the week! Haha
  10. Well I'm not sure of the procedure but I will do everything I can to make sure it's correctly inspected. I'm not going to drive about in a bodged car! Fingers crossed!
  11. Well when I say a wreck I mean their airbags went off and the front was crumpled! Is the car inspected as a standard measure after an accident?
  12. So, on my way home from work tonight I got shafted up the rear by some old couple. Their car was destroyed, but they were fine. Mine looked okay. The bumper will need replacing etc. I'm just a little worried it might have caused some deeper damage, I'm assuming the garage who take the car check for structure damage? Also being a convertible I'm not sure if it will cause any problems! Ive not had an accident before. Fingers crossed :/
  13. Is this something a mechanic can easily diagnose?
  14. A couple of years ago my mechanic mentioned one of the rear suspension shocks were misting slightly. The car has only done 50k! Isn't that a bit soon for shocks etc?
  15. It's not my driving. Had the car for nearly three years and something is different! Tyres are fine
  16. I have taken the car out today And the back end feels really light. I did a couple of tight turns and it lost traction. Normally it's solid at the back in the dry. I have good condition mpss all round. Any ideas? Alignment / shocks /diff?
  17. I have bought an OEM exhaust (back box and mid pipe) I need to know what gaskets are used (part number) to attach the back box to the mid pipe and mid pipe to the y pipe. Any help would be great-full. I called Nissan and they don't give out part numbers.
  18. Hello, My exhaust is blowing and i need a replacement. Does anyone know if this will fit only the HR?
  19. If you strip back the door you will see there are some screws to adjust the lean of the window. This adjustes how hard against the car the glass sits. I would try this first. Nissan tech guys showed me this when I had a new regulator.
  20. Yes its not long been serviced and I check oil every week!
  21. Sorry, I'll try and be clearer. The rattle is there when i press the clutch in (not engaged) but its the same rattle as when the clutch is engaged. It doesn't bother me at all, but i would rather fix a potential problem before it gets worse.
