  1. i bought my 2002 is200 se in aug 2007 with 58K on clock for £4200, just sold in aug 2008 with 72K on clock for £3600, i think i didnt lose out too much considering the amount a drove it not forgetting racing the **** out of it!!! (you might of seen my vid on youtube ;) lol) well i had my days with it and must admit it must be the best drive iv had so far and by far! now im on a passat tdi 150 bhp lots more torque and very economical :)
  2. 07512886051 based in oldham, groby street, just tell him sam with the blue lexus sent ya and he'l sort you out
  3. £265 fully comp and 23, sold the car now so i guess i was the winner of the cheapest insurance premium lol! im still staying in the forum guys cuz you fellaz are sound and hopefully me saving for my next lex
  4. i used to get about 360 miles to a full tank (£70) now on my passat tdi 130 i get 600 with the same amount of fuel and no compromise on speed
  5. damn obviously it will take less time to reach that kinda speed but there's me thinking the top speed will actually increase....not that you'd need that kinda speed lol
  6. what is the top speed of an is200 tubo/super charged? anyone hit over 150 yet?
  7. well what i mean is the IS seems way too sluggish for my liking....i get a better rush off the vti but obviously the IS has quality that the honda cant deliver! oh the roads on that vid seem familiar :winky: but who knows who was driving that IS, he must have balls of steel LOL
  8. yes i noticed this too but i must admit im alot happier now that iv sold the car lol.......sorry but i wasnt happy with the car....performance was crap and fuel economy even worse but hey the comfort and style was something else!! never mind anyway im going to join you guys in the future hopefully after buying the the new is220D cuz them are in a world of their own.....must revert back to my honda civic vti-s and passat tdi for now.... take care fellas and hope you all the best!
  9. what about our brothers in crime HONDA, the dohc engine (b16) 1.6 produces 160 to 170 standard......
  10. You'll need the reader aswell matey to go with that cable? I use the new free full registered version of ProScan V5.4 software for my elm327, which i downloaded from the scantool website and works very well. It even does the fuel economy :) have you got a link or the serial for pro scan v5.4 pal? i cant find it anywhere
  11. exactly the same as i have so you will be fine - if it doesnt work when you install it u will need to install usb/serial port software - i had to do this on XP and vista, i got it from microsoft where on Microsoft pal? i cant find the software, have you got the name or link please?..... iv just got the elm 327 cable and cant get it to work as the device does not get recognised! please help someone
  12. it was just something that crossed my mind as they didnt bother making a diesel is200 and the standard is200 gives such low performance for a petrol engine anyway so thought it might be an idea......LPG is the way forward ;)
  13. i know you cant modify a petrol engine to run on diesel but is there another engine that will fit direct in the is200 to make it run on diesel w2ithout too much modifications? this may be a project idea for someone or even myself ;)
  14. damn lol, im running 2 cars at the moment lifes getting hard with these b******ds putting tax up on everything! oh well iv still gotta keep on going eh........
  15. can i turn off the rear 02 sensors using an obII?

  17. i think it might be the cat on its way out because i do smell some rich fumes out of the exhaust
  18. damn i put 40 all round mine lol, max pressure is about 50 psi
  19. ok iv removed bulbs from dashboards before and had bad experience where the dials have dropped off lol.....how easy is it to take bulb out of engine management light on the IS? has anyone tried or done it before? the car runs perfect, its just that light thats doing my head in lol
  20. iv just noticed the engine managment light is on, the fault code is as follows: P0420 CATYLYST SYSTEM EFFIENCY (BANK 1) BELOW THRESHOLD iv had it cleared a few times but it keeps proping up, can anyway shed any light here please on how to get rid of it permanantly
