  1. I hadn't realized it was free. I'm quite happy to pay too
  2. If you follow the ECU reset procedure in the service manual you can induce flashing CEL which repeats so you can read it yourself.
  3. (You've got to love this Headmistress) According to a news report, a certain private school in Newcastle upon Tyne was recently faced with a unique problem. A number of 12-year-old girls were beginning to use lipstick and would put it on in the bathroom. That was fine, but after they put on their lipstick they would press their lips to the mirror leaving dozens of little lip prints. Every night the maintenance man would remove them and the next day the girls would put them back. Finally the Headmistress decided that something had to be done. She called all the girls to the bathroom and met them there with the maintenance man. She explained that all these lip prints were causing a major problem for the custodian who had to clean the mirrors every night (you can just imagine the yawns from the little Geordie 'Princesses'). To demonstrate how difficult it had been to clean the mirrors, she asked the maintenance man to show the girls how much effort was required. He took out a long-handled squeegee, dipped it in the toilet, and cleaned the mirror with it. Since then, there have been no lip prints on the mirror. There are teachers.... .and then there are educators.

  5. I must say the BC's are on my shopping list.
  6. I'm guessing 90% of long term members, like me, are members of both. I've tried suggesting joint stands like Mark has above. I wish people would stop trying to talk the rivalry up, and I mean on both sides
  7. This smacks of the 'Small hands' thread

  9. Do you live in the South.? You could popin and test fit them.

  11. You don't mention coolant level checked. Get a mate to rev the engine hard while stationery and bonnet open. Make sure you havn't got a slow water leak which is evaporating off.
  12. According to Willy at TGM there are 2 WV2 codes. 1 for the outside and 1 for the internals/engine bay
