Re: Diamond key re programing in Wales ?

Charge the battery up first, then start the car with the dead key and let it charge the car on a LONG run (could be low voltage and it has a 9v rechargeable battery in it that charges through the key barrel). If that doesn't work try a re-programme (have a search on here). Think your battery is play...

Re: time to say goodbye ..:-((

Not fair!!!! :'( I want one of them! Rustynail on here a while back did exactly the same for his business quoting needing to get an 8 by 4 sheet in the car (assuming plywood or similar).

Re: Finally took some photos

Lovely - how do you find the 2 litre lump? Is it okay for this size car or a bit sluggish? Does it give good fuel economy.

Re: Hi from me

:hi: They will be thirsty on that 80 mile round trip - keep that in mind. The buyers guide will help a lot. Black will definitely be better but there are a few out there, fancy a different colour if you find the rare comfort seats? SE will be much easier on the ride than the Sport spec, plus cheaper...

Re: abs sensor problem

Thank you both gents. So I went to see Jason and he said don't think it's the module just because the sensors seem ok. Bit of diagnostics later and the steering wheel sensor the culprit. Re calibrated and the yellow light has gone - not sure why it came up in the first place but thanks again Jason, ...

Re: Rear Door Speaker Adaptors

Evening!

Rear speakers I never changed, they make little acoustic difference (to me). Adaptor plates - I used 6mm MDF and a jigsaw.

Know not much help, sorry...
