  1. The G man. I have the same issues on a few occasions of late when you expect to open the car on the cars buttons rather than using the remote - which works fine. I have wondered whether some other signals are interfering but as it has only happened a few times not unduly worried. What was strange on one occasion is that the "no key" orange light light came on when driving once but fortunately did not turn the car off Maybe the fob battery is getting low (nearly two years old, and if it means anything the car has done just on 10k miles) so I will get it checked at the next service later in September.
  2. Hope these help viewtopic.php?f=7&t=25963 viewtopic.php?f=7&t=7695
  3. Yep, you are right on looking closer again
  4. Just in case it might be needed: viewtopic.php?f=35&t=141
  5. If I am not mistaken that is clarkie34's car. If so a great buy - see here for starters viewtopic.php?f=9&t=50005&p=728510#p728510
  6. Welcome to the forum and 350 owwnership. Until you have 5 quality posts you will not be able to send pms (spamming issues). But if you want to buy the club stickers you will need to contact M13KYF (admin) for them - he may be on soon and I am sure will respond then
  7. No one else involved no statements taken therefore no third party , breakdown has taken it for scrap you have accepted the loss - just ring the insurance and cancel the policy and get the balance of your premium back (less admin fee) as you are not making a claim and move on. I would.
  8. These two links should help you get started with pics etc: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=25963 viewtopic.php?f=7&t=7695
  9. Fancy carbon viewtopic.php?f=38&t=46103&hilit=undertray
  10. So, do you like the colour, or should I say does the finance manager?
  11. I think you will find that cars get used by an employee but the service docs are held centrally and when the car needs servicing they user gets a message to drop it in to a nearby dealer but he does not get involved with the paperwork. When it is deemed the right time to sell the car I have heard that it can take time for the car and docs to meet up Perhaps EH370z can put some more light on this?
  12. Should be no problems with fitment - I bought a s/h system for my 296 Zed that had come off a 276 version and it fitted with no issues - but then it was a Nismo
  13. I do understand the peace of mind bit but if Yoko's car was being sold by a dealer I would expect to see £2-3k plus on his price. One of the best things about joining a forum is you can look back through the seller's posts to get a good feel for the history - something you won't get from a dealer. Frankly the used-car warranty's they issue are next to worthless IMHO - there is always something in the small print they can get out of. Besides which if you are very cautious you would get an RAC inspection done anyway? Which you do with a private sale and if the seller says no - walk away. Check for the service history - that is the most important bit. A 350 engine is so under-stressed it is highly unlikley to 'pop' unless the oil level has not been kept up - something a good professional inspection should reveal for your peace of mind. But the choice is yours
  14. Just saw this link on another thread - in case some of the info helps http://www.350zmotoring.com/forums/audi ... moval.html BTW - you have made an excellent purchase purchase there - one of the GT4's around
  15. Oh jeebus, that really sucks and just with your move and all - feel for you Col and will certainly look out for anything in your line of work
  16. That may be the problem if you did not clean up the caliper where the pad was stuck as there is likely to be a build-up (aggravated by the new pad dust) if only small that means when the rota goes in reverse and some heat has built up it 'fires' the new pad against the piston? And did you copper grease the surfaces and shims to make sure everything moves freely? Not saying that is the answer but given wht you have said I think that is something worth looking at first all and to check it is working OK and compares with the near side in any event
  17. Yes, pre-facelift Bumper. Just to make clear that these will not fit UK supplied 2006 facelift models and onwards. A search will reveal plenty of threads to confirm.
  18. No you are not - got that link by a google search having done the same research you are doing, some way back
  19. he can't cos of our 5 quality post rule I'll do it for him
