I'm (un)fortunate that I dont see with stereo vision, so its completely wasted on me. I do hope its a fad otherwise I cant go to the cinema any more depending on the system they use

www.avforums.com/ - THE definitive place for all things AV

Good news to hear that there are some genuine techs out there still that are looking out for the punters The Zed gearbox does sound rather loud compared to other cars, I feel this is probably the main reason they sent you away. It shouldnt be overly loud though. I guess for others out there that think theres is loud, the best thing to do it get with another Zed and compare. Glad you got it all sorted, and just before the warranty ran out

You would hope there would be a significant difference wouldnt you, but somehow I get the feeling that there wouldnt! Maybe we should ask someone like Tim@Chris Knott and get an official position

Good things come to those who wait - Amanda got her ring about 2 weeks before I ordered my 370z, the ring was a pre-requisite

Your time will come matey. Mine lasted into the forth year then suddenly it decided it didnt want to play any more. Would fire no problems after being left for days, then all of a sudden, being left for more than 2 would kill it.

Congrats Jay, thats great news

Wouldnt use this one - its only for upto 2.5l engines. I beleive they do a bigger one, or some kind of add-on for this for bigger engines - my mate who works at Halfords has one and its far larger than that one EDIT - this is the beastie - http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stor ... 65629#dtab

I just got a Halfords battery for mine, seemed to do the job. Fitting is dead easy too, just get the service manual downloaded and you'll be fine. You have to remove quite a bit of plastic trim around the battery and bottom of the window, but it all slots back together easy enough, just take your time - especially as its cold and the plastic will be brittle.

Well I take back some of that. I got her out today and made it to work, so not all that bad. Yesterday the TCS was going mental on a gritted road, so thought they were pants, but it turns out it was -9C and grit stops working around -10C so it may not have been the tyres fault. Its 0C today and they did pretty good on what bits of snow I had to do. So just stay away from temps lower than -7C and you should be ok

Also get the condition checked by a garage. Dont want it going dead on you again in this weather

Now you see what we have to work with

Depends on what condition the battery was before you left it. How old is it? The Zed can be quite picky about the battery state, remember you are trying to turn over a 3.5l lump

My 050s seem pretty pants in the snow, thinking of swapping to my Rotas with Falkens on them, I remember the 350z was better in the snow than the 370z appears to be, but nothing major happened touch wood. So just having tyres with lots of tread isnt good enough either, I have about 6mm all round, but the 050's summer compound is just crap in very cold weather.

+1

I'd take that over my Zed at the moment

Go in the van, theres a lot of idiots out there! I dont have a choice, I have to take the Zed to work in Slough tomorrow. Snow - fine, ice - fine, other muppets on the road - not sure I can take it! But I have to

If they were mandated by the State then you'd have to fit them and if you didnt your insurance would be void

We have sooo many now, I'm really impressed Need to all try and make one show this year to display all of them in a line

Go winter tyres Shame they dont make them in my size, I think I will have to find some comprimised sizes next year

Thats made my day. Typical BMW driver

Don't know why it did it, but to reset it, using the drivers switches, put the window up, then drop it all the way without using auto drop, then all the way back up and hold it there for five seconds. Should now drop and raise properly when you close the doors. Havent disconnected the battery for anything have you? Only that or removing the door switches should cause the problem you've seen

Remember the engine does move on its mounts slightly, so you cant use all the space between the upper plenum and the strut bar

Just started coming down heavy here now
