Ordered 2 bottles of Turtle Wax Sealant Hydrophobic Wax from here. Let's see what arrives. @davey_83 if it's legit I'll bring you a bottle on Sunday
-
Surely you can return it as "not as described". I literally just looked at that same listing and added it to my basket Will hunt other sellers for dead stock of the old stuff
-
My original TW Hybrid Hydrophobic Wax has only about 1/4 left Will use it more sparingly now and not as a drying aid
-
So which one did you buy? Or was it ALL THREE? Seal n Shine is still one of my favourites. Bought a bottle for my dad when he got his new car in July

I took my kids to see suicide squad in 2016. They were discussing their favourite characters. My then 8 year old daughter said Gunshot while my 5 year old son said Harley Quinn. Mum asked why Harley Quinn. My son said "she wears the clothes that show THE SHAPE"

Always a good start to the weekend knowing your car's been cleaned and waxed. Hate going out 8n a dirty car......... it's like leaving the house with messy hair to me😬

@ilogikal1 Police were not interested and asked him to log everything online for a crime reference number to send to the insurance company

Part 1 of his CCTV footage showing them taking a photo of the number plate. Then he returns a minute later and simply unlocks the car Gets in and is joined by an accomplss .....and they're off! Happened in Tooting Broadway in South London

My brother's Kia Sportage was just stolen today. Parked on the road outside his terraced house. His CCTV showed they did it in 4 min total despite his keys ALWAYS being in a Faraday box. They took a photo of his car reg Went on a laptop in their car 2 min later used their keyless device, got in the Kia and drove away 😱. We reckon they've breached Kia database for keyless entry Kia Sportage models😬

Always nice to know that you have bought a car from an enthusiast who has cares for his car

If you didn't know which switch it was , it's the all black one above. When you insert it, you twist to lock it into position. You can choose how far you insert it before twisting and locking. If the warning lights come on after swapping it may be that you inserted it to deep, meaning when you dab the brakes the switch hasn't been triggered this confusing the ECU. In this case reposition it so the brake lights only just switch off once seated. Then you know as soon as you just touch the brake pedal the switch will activate.

Tarmacsportz will definitely look after you well. Glad the zed is on the mend. I literally just fitted a new brake light switch to mine a few months back. It was a LUCAS part and has been perfect so far. I always keep a spare as they seem to go after a couple years. My last one was actually an OEM Nissan one but that too only lasted a couple years. No idea why they failed, bit it's a cheap 5 min fix for about a tenner so it's all good.

05 Coupe at Lockwood and Greenwood today
HEADPHONES replied to HEADPHONES's topic in Spotted or Flyered
It was the immobiliser. L&G reset it all and it runs fine. The Mini's dash unit has been removed and sent to an electricis specialist for repair though. A loose connection means it's lost Speedo, tachometer, temperature gauge, abs, etc. -

My wife's R50 Mini is dead. Cranks but doesn't start. RAC spent an hour trying to start it but it's just not sparking. It was towed there Sunday night. I just went to drop the keys off. Hate electrical problems. I'd rather something mechanical any day -
Dropped my wife's car off at the garage and saw you there. Hope you're just in for servicing and nothing major.

Good luck with your search. There are genuine gems that pop up so don't lose faith.

An after breakfast chinwag 20 down as going so far. What's not to like. https://facebook.com/events/s/autumn-breakfast-meet-/676190967781631/

Wow That's Vroom811's zed! This car is an absolute gem. I watched on YouTube how he stripped EVERYTHING from underneath the car and sealed it from the elements. That's in addition to all the other work to get this car tip top. Congratulations on finding such a gem AND in Sunset Orange too -

Missus told the kids tonight that she'd planned LEGOLAND for us all that weekend Kids kicked off saying they're too old for LEGOLAND. So I'm now free for this -
When you next see a "free" battery check offer at Halfords, drive your car there. Switch their bogus battery back in. Call them out to check it. "Sir....... your battery is dead.....we can sell you a new one" Whip out your receipt and ask for your FREE replacement

Coil pack failure seems to be quite common on Zeds. Had 2 fail on me a few months ago. I also opted to change out all 6. Couldn't be doing with the aggro of the others failing soon afterwards.

Those are some quality images. The only problem is CHOOSING A FAVOURITE
