Hi guys, sorry I haven't been around much, but my D8 has now gone to car heaven. My D9 is running ok and is used as my everyday run-about. OK, so, I have the rear "Lexus style" light clusters if anyone is interested. I have wired in an LED strip which illuminates along with the brake bulb. I'm open ...

I think in the meantime I might get a pair of Firestone TZ300s fitted I just got 2 new Pirelli P6000's 195 65 15 V's for £120 all in fitted at home from etyres. I didn't have to go anywhere. Some bloke just came in a long wheelbase Sprinter, balanced and fitted them. I was quoted a few quid more at...

The insurance company (Aviva, used to be Norwich Union) called today and I explained what happened. They were quite understanding about it. They also said that I do not have to pay any excess if there is no damage to my vehicle. They said they would have to contact the vehicle owner in writing to ar...

Hello, for those of you who want the manual in .PDF Acrobat format, I have converted Dave's images to a single .PDF Acrobat file that can be downloaded here: http://hotfile.com/dl/23184737/9bbba64/406_Manual.zip.html or here: http://tinyurl.com/406Manual or Rapidshare link here: http://tinyurl.com/4...

Unfortunately I didn't take any pics. As it was dark my phone camera is useless. I think she is trying it on as the car did have some previous marks on the door. She also refused to give her phone number, so I cannot even contact her.

With this bad spell of weather, be EXTRA, EXTRA careful everyone!

Hello, this post is just for some advice really.. It started snowing quite heavy and I thought I would get some essentials from Sainsburys before the weather got any worse. On the way back, the car in front braked suddenly and then I did too. As I did this, my D9 slid towards the left and went up ag...

I know they serve beer in that Taybarns place, but not sure about the selection. The nearest Pub is at location A:

Someone needs to find somewhere centralish, with a suitable carpark, a decent pub (serving food+stella) and a cheap hotel like a Travelodge (£20/night jobbie)... How about Coventry? There is a large-ish car park behind the Showcase Cinema with a Premier Inn and a Taybarns (all you can eat for under...

Brilliant! I like it!.. What alloys are they? they look so nice.

I've got a Pioneer Deh-p8600mp. I'm using an Autoleads PC99-X24 stalk adapter on my D9. Dependong on your headunit (Sony, Pioneer, etc..) you will need a patch lead to connect to the stalk adaptor. I was lucky that my Pioneer supported this.

I had to take it out for further investigation as to what was going on with it. I took it out and then connected it inside the house with one of those jump starter things. I pressed the eject button and it worked! :shock: I think the motorized mechanism may have been stuck or something. I put 2 dabs...

My Pioneer DEH-P8600MP is doing something strange. It all operates as it should, except when I press eject, it beeps, but nothing happens. The face is supposed to move down and the CD is meant o eject itself. Also, in normal operation, when I turn off the ignition and wait a moment, the unit beeps a...

Yeah I saw that TV show and when I saw the d8's I was like Then when I saw what they were doing with them I was like But then I popped in the good old Ronin DVD and I was like That's a D8 being used! If you havent seen Ronin, watch it!

Thanks guys, you were spot on! I managed to get a replacement pulley from GSF for around £45 and just finished changing it. What a headache.. Now all I have to do is fix that hole in the flexi pipe!
