Welcome back to the VXOC FORUM.
Sorry for our lack of support over the last year but MYBB is back and so are we.
Let's get the forum buzzing again... (March 25, 2022)x
Not something I'll be able to do any time soon but thought I'd ask anyway so that I have the info for when I am able to do it.
I wanted to have the chrome trim around the indicator / fog lights as mine doesn't have this. I've found the part I need which looks like this:
[ATTACH]500[/ATTACH]
It comes as the indicator/fog light holder and the chrome trim is separate. My question is whether or not I'd be able to install this chrome trim onto my current light holder or if I'd need to fit the whole part (with holder) in order to get that chrome trim?
Hi guys, two things that have started happening so hoping someone has experienced them.
Firstly, on first start (so cold) while accelerating car sounds like screaming when you would normally hear a whistling. Goes after 10 secs or so and only on first start up.
Hoping maybe a small hole in boost pipe and not the turbo starting to fail!
Also got the "Turkey gobbling" noise back maybe connected?
Second I noticed at mcdonalds drive thru. Window down to pay and pressing brake pedal can hear a noise like a creaking spring. This doesnt go away only when i wind window up lol.
Cars going in for first mot tomorrow and the warranty is up on the 21st March.
I carried out the twin reverse light mod and fogs in the reflectors. I'm not completely happy with the brightness of the fogs so I'm in the middle of trying something different.
As some of you know I've recently purchased some hids and led drls and today
I had cornishtaz do the fitting for me and I'm literally over the moon with them it's honestly night and day compared to the standards.
I've just taken a couple of pics so thought I would share them
I want to give cornishtaz a extreme big thanks for fitting them and feeding me with all the Knowledge I needed he literally the gtc god lol many thanks again mate
So i take it you all know about the top gear scandal
and i am i avid fan of the show from the start but i was shocked today to find MR Clarkson
who i always assumed would have some sort of top of the range JAG or ASTON MARIN
NO NO NO he has a Renault Meagan RS 265 SPORT
i thought was getting old but just shows once a boy racer always a boy racer till the end
I filled the car up with diesel and drove to my friends house to do the oil change. After that we attempted the fuel filter by turning the drain screw. However, the diesel just kept on coming out and at just over 2 litres was lost we tightened it back up in the hope some knows why it didn't stop?
I was of the understanding that just the fuel out of the filter housing would come out.
Can anyone please help?
This How to will Stop Rattles that Appear to be Coming from the Seat Belt or A Pillar Area.
For a while now i have a Wired Rattle that seems to come from the Passenger Side Area
Around the Seat Belt or A Pillar Area and i have not been Able to Put my Finger on were Exactly it has been Coming From
I Noticed if i Pushed Down on the Console in the Headliner This would Stop
So i came up with a Very Simple Solution that works.
The Rattle is a Vibration Rattle Due to a Foam Block in the Console in the Headliner not being as Tight a Fit as it Should
This makes the Sound Travel and makes it Hard to Pin Point were it is Coming From
So a very Simple Solution was call For and it Works.
Remove the Trim with the Two Vents from the Console in the Headliner
and inside at the Back you will see a Foam Block Simply Push a Sponge in between
the Block and the Roof this will Stop the Vibration Rattle that Travels to the Seat Belt Area.
This will also Stop Any Rattles you may have from the Console Itself also
Some have Suggested Adding Sticky Tads to the Trim but this Works just as Good Also
a Very Simple Solution But this Really has Worked.
Been thinking of getting an Astra for quite some time, couldn't make up my mind about which shape to go for and in the end, picked up a lovely little SRI, 14 plate about a month a go and I've not looked back since.
Pics will be available soon when I can dig my camera out, just moved house.
