    Cooling system - Bleeding

    The interior heating is not working as it should, I suspect that there is an air blockage somewhere. I know there are 2 bleeding points in the engine bay, The one near the bulkhead where the pipe enters the cabin. No bubbles from here. The other is a bit trickier. From all the pictures, videos...

    MOT time

    Pleased to say that MOT passed with no advisories. Interestingly, I had a call from the garage that did the MOT, Sidelight bulbs were dead and needed replacement - As my RCZ has DRL's there were no sidelights fitted (also no wiring loom for them either). Garage said they had never come across...

    ABS scanner

    Does anyone have any suggestions for an OBD2 port scanner that can read ABS sensors. The generic ones (£20 from Amazon) are not detailed enough. I did have the PP2000 software but the XP laptop it ran on died a death years ago. TIA :unsure:

    ABS issues

    Error codes P0500 & U0415. Going to take each wheel off in turn and check the wiring to the 4 ABS sensors. Hopefully just a bit of corrosion so will give everything a good clean. Anyone have any other suggestions ?

    Rear Brake Calipers - Piston

    I must have changed hundreds of brake disks/pads in my 40yrs of motoring - but for the life of me I could not wind back the rear Caliper pistons today. Am I missing something, the Draper tool I used started to bend. Any ideas, I'd be ashamed to take it to a garage. :(

    Does anybody have the PP2000 software

    I hope someone has a PP2000 software disk that they could loan / Copy / Hire to me. My WinXP laptop died a death, Created a virtual XP machine but the original disk has been damaged. I have the leads and codes, just not the software. Alternativly - a known working link to download would be...

    Headlight bulb - hint

    When replacing a headlight bulb always put a rag or towel under the headlamp unit. ...because when you drop the new bulb (a £17 osram)...and you will drop it, it won't get lost somewhere behind the bumper never to be seen again. 👿😠😡💩

    White leather seats

    Afternoon all. I had a go at cleaning the white leather seats today. Not very impressed with the cleaning kit from Halfords. It looks like I will need to "touch up" the colouring where the colour from the various backsides have ground in dirt or colour from their clothes. Anyone point me in...

    A question for the older members of this forum

    Does anyone remember Halfords selling touch up stickers for the paintwork. They were sold in packets, were an exact match (much like the touch-up pens) and were undetectable on the car body. Tried searching online but nothing showing up.

    Hill start assist

    Not sure if this has been asked before, Does the Hill Start Assist only hold the rear brakes when active. And does anyone know if the function works through the Handbrake circuit or the Footbrake circuit. Many thanks

    Economy Mode

    Looking for some information. Sometimes when entering the car - the "Economy Mode Active" message appears in the display when turning on the ignition. Other times it does not. I have a dash cam fitted - but that is powered from the cigarette lighter and I know it turns off a few seconds after...

    Dartmouth - October 2018

    Only caught a glimpse - but an RCZ with logo's on it at Dartmouth near the lower ferry - and a spoiler. It looked magnificent. I'm sure I saw it on the coast road to Slapton a few days before.
