  1. A bit of meg's polish and Nissan undercoat will be as good as silver
  2. Good luck mate! If you keep an eye on the fluid level you can always top it up if it isn't leaking too much - might make a temporary fix for a short time. If you do decide to go ahead, it's dead easy to remove the bumper (no need to jack the car up!) and remove the part
  3. Nice write up but still doesn't cut the mustard for me. As somebody said in the comments "why did they put an astro-wars in the centre console" - ordering that optional sat nav will never be the same again now
  4. ^^ same as what they did for me last year....makes you wonder if the parts are massively inflated for them to make a profit on this.
  5. If you bought it from a dealer then take it back pronto! If you have extended warranty e.g. warranty direct -then we will pray for you! If it was private purchase & no warranty then as Mike says, try cleaning the throttle body or check the MAF sensor - dead easy to remove. Maybe a ECU reset / throttle learning ecu reset? Just a thought. Hope it's a cheap fix
  6. Welcome aboard ! My bluetooth volume is loud as hell, no problems there. Maybe try another bt cradle first? What phone are you using - it might be phone related ...just a thought... And I'm surprised you beat a Lotus Elise...seriously, they musn't have been trying! You'll soon get frustrated by Type-R's and Cooper S works believe me
  7. Join the club - I had this about 1 month ago, in my case it wasn't the hoses it was the bottom pipe into the cooler. I'm afraid it's bumper off job But worth the pain if you can either get a replacement of ZMANALEX or like me get the existing cooler spot welded by a local company. NB. It's made of aluminium. Nissan also quoted me circa £400 and it was on a 6 week back order!!!

    Brake Fluid

    !!! I wonder when DT fitted my DBA discs & Endless pads in 2007 they also used my Motul fluid as well then !!! You must have been speaking to a noobie there! BTW, is was in the car for some 30k miles - 18 months as well!!!!
  9. Fantastic car for the money! Good luck with the sale Tim.
  10. Nice find Digsy Think this could be the way forward for me when I fancy a change from me current Zed....Azure Blue is the only colour I would take....
  11. 69k original clutch - and I don't hang around Beat that!
  12. Nice new look guys! The only thing I have noticed now is, when you hover over a thread you don't get a preview as per the old website - I used to like this as it saved having to click to go into the detailed thread!
  13. Nice job fella Can you share how much this kind of detailing costs and where are you based?
  14. Great day all! Nice to meet some new faces as well Shame the roads werent a bit quieter and maybe a tad warmer up the horshoe pass
  15. Nice pics Stan! Really shows out the colour of the Night Blue.
  16. You wanna go to Wells ! My mate has 3 outdoor bogs in his garden, 2 are his neighbours and they all have right of way access to his garden! Stupid 18th century rules! There's one in Bala, here's a photo from last years meet
  17. "What's that plastic thing above the rear view mirror" "How much is my road tax " "Cooper s works raced me." Mini Forum - one of those Datsuns tried to race me today
  18. See you at The Grosvenor at 11.30 then We might become famous if there's a wedding on there as well Looking forward to it - will be up nice & early for a bit of spit n polish.
  19. Not sure if you know sprevett but there's a few of us meeting this Saturday not too far from you - will get some good advice if your up for it:- http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic ... 406#296406 (Sorry to go off topic....)
  20. Is this the latest list? xStric9x martinmac +2 Digsy (chit chat - don't have a Zed so won't keep up! ) Beavis djmoto Marzman (depending on date...Feb is busy for me!) S1 HNK Jacko Squarehead Red or zed IanS16 Wilky if not offshore. Maccaman zedwagon (possible) simon1618 14 zed's should be good fun
  21. I think the plugs are up to you mate - the car is 5 years old so I would personally, but it's your money at the end of the day. Choices near you:- Nissan Chorley - been there - very good Lockwood & Greenwood (L&G) - http://www.lockwoodandgreenwood.co.uk - also very good & probably cheaper as they're giving discount to new customers. L&G charge £35 for the oil so it's up to you if you take your own.
  22. I would imagine changing the elect window motor is fairly easy - I did it on an Alfa 156 once after it got broken into Me & the old man had to wedge the new window up with a block of wood in the door to stop it falling Bought the motor off ebay for £30 fitted myself - job done
  23. ^^ So basically they charged you £120 more than my P3 to change the coolant and do an engine flush, I reckon that's a good 1 hours labour, so to be fair it ain't bad. And at the end of the day £330 for full service for the zed is cheap as chips imo.
  24. Yeah I know! Just saw it myself - been in the garden all day, perfect weather tomorrow for me to finish laying the slabs Looks like I'll be up nice & early on Sat to wash & polish before the meet
