the 406 is a bit rough round the edges, but is proving to be unbelievably reliable... makes a nice change

I was hoping to do it up a little when I first got it, but I like it the way it is now - lots of character

Hi mate...

us ex Xsara people should stick together

thanks for the info - that's a great help

am I right in thinking the CTS to the ecu is the green coloured one ?

right - sorry for my late reply :oops: and thanks for the link :cheesy: where is the MAP sensor located on the tubby Mr Teamster Sir ? also, where is the coolant temp sensor located :wink: my last car had an XU10J4RS and I knew the layout like the back of my hand... but this one is all different :sh...

Hi Guy, I'm having a small problem with my car

from cold, if I start the engine on my SRI and press the throttle lightly it almost stalls...

and even when warm the car can feel a bit "snatchy" sometimes when accelerating from low speeds

one of the sensors ?

coil pack ?

oh dammit

what colour is the car please ?

I'm always on the lookout for better panels

ok thanks Robb - I'll give that a go

I wasn't up to another attempt yesterday as it was too damn hot

listed again for the third time

I'll have another go this afternoon mate

funny thing is - on the drivers' side light, the lower plastic lug has been snapped so is hanging free, but the spring is inaccessible

and on the passenger side, the spring is easy to get to but the bolt isn't... DOH

just a moan really I guess...

I started off thinking I could do a DIY wing replacement, but I have thrown the towel in already

defeated by the damn headlights as I cant undo the lower bolt

errr, thanks Guys... I think :lol: the exhaust - well it lasted about 2 weeks then I sold it - it was just insanely loud :oops: despite the fact I hate loud exhausts, I was somehow persuaded that I would need to fit a " performance " exhaust to get the best out of the conversion :roll: yes. the supe...

well the new owner turned up today and drove away in my old car

mixed feeling about it really, but after 6 years it was time to move on...

what are you using to decipher the build code if you don't mind me asking ?

I seem to recall there was a program / website that was giving bogus info

edit: not this one i guess
