    NEW PROBLEM: STOP & Battery light

    Well, just to update. Over Xmas while I was in Kent, I left the car for a couple of days. I am not sure if its the cold/damp or what, as thats when it occured first, but once I set off in the morning the STOP & battery lights started flickering on again! Typical I thought, so I ignored it. After...

    Optimax is a RIP-OFF ?

    I remember them proving it. They took before and after photos on some BMW. Quite impressive.

    Optimax shortage in Cornwall.

    All, it seems there is a distinct lack of Optimax down here. Hayle is dry and won't be refilled until the new year, Truro City centre is dry, am not sure about Playing place. The only other place is the Shell services off the A30 just before Truro. If you are coming in fill up here before...

    Another way to get a speeding fine!

    That is damn outrageous. Why not just tag all the cars with GPS transmitters and be done with it... I did wonder what they were doing on the M4. AND you know its going to lead to more number plates being stolen.

    Forum Conduct

    I still think its friendly and fun on the whole. Like Nik said, problems occur when people rise to the bait and start with the personal insults. If we stay constructive, the chilidish comments go away. If they persist and are obviously aimed at winding people up, then Nik can take action...

    Why the accelerator 'button'?

    The only reason its there, like you said, is to override the speed limit control (not cruise-control) in case of emergencies.

    Sports catalyst

    Mine is on. I have a sports cat from Pro-Speed. Its because the cat is freer flowing and the Management system thinks that the Renault Cat is faulty as the level of hydrocarbons (I think - it maybe something else) is too high. If you get the light reset, it usually comes back on after 1000-2000...

    Exhaust haze

    I had that with my old 182. One guy I know suggested it may be because generally all I was doing was short journeys in the car, so just as the car warmed up I stopped. All it needed was a long drive. I drove to Cornwall, and by the time I got there, no more problem.
