hmmm, so they did carry out some form of checkup then as well. i'll have to see if i can find somewhere that will include a checkup/service in the cost as well as I dont wanna get it recharged then discover a leak as if I end up with a leak it'll be the bodyshops fault.

When I bought my car the A/C was working fine but due to the work which needed to be done on it the bodyshop had to drain the A/C so I need to get mine sorted soon but i'm not sure if I should just got for a normal recharge or a service. I seen a place online and they charge £59 for a full service otherwise around £50 for just a recharge.

what should I get done??

coudl the wheels need balancing? i know u normally only balance the fronts but could try with the rears, also as mentioned check ur brakes as they could be binding

if i only balanced the front wheels when i was doing tyres i would get the sack!!! :o !!!!!! when doing any type of tyre front or back you must balance them!!!!

my mistake then lol....I musta been having a blonde day....

aztec....u still got ur front skirt mate? and possibly the rear?

If i'm correct, even if u dont reset the ecu after changing to a K&N, the car will still alter the air/fuel mixture accordingly but will just take a bit longer. I put a K&N filter in mine the other week but havent reset the ecu but I think that it has helped with the response of the car.

the version withe LF-A V10 would certainly be interesting.

lol...it aint loud redz...I'm now swaying towards on whether it could be the dvdrw I'm using and the quality of the mp3s on it as been listening to another dvdrw today and was clear

seen the listing recently and if they didnt need a refurb i'd go for them, hmm but then again they could be diy polished...would look sweet

I really cant wait to see this. Think I may go this wkend.

now this looks it could be a beast...

where can u get these test tones from mate? I dont have any issues with the speakers most of the time its just when I turn them up n possibly on certain tunes but it does feel as tho something aint right as tho they're cutting in n out or something like that but litteraly only for a tiny split second, just reminds me slightly of when tweeters are damaged but not to that extent as when tweeters are damaged its very clear but not mine. apart from the high volume I cant really complain tbh, they play perfectly fine and clear otherwise.

Has anyone with an IS200 had their speaker or tweeters distort at all? I've got a JVC KD-AVX1 in my car along with A Vibe VP4 mono amp running at roughly 1.5ohms pushing the 2 12" Fuel Audio subs but otherwise I've still got all the standard speakers in the car. The problem which I've noticed is that when I turn the volume up, and it aint even that loud (unit goes up to 50, volume set to roughly 17 or 18) the speakers or tbh I think its actually the tweeters seem to distort and the sound seems to possibly clip. It reminds me of a cd skipping sometimes but not exactly the same kinda noise. I've got the HPF set to 125khz on the head unit so all bass is filtered away from the speakers. I dont think the tweeters are damaged at all but am just confused on whats going on. I've also tried different EQ settings but although for instance on a flat setting I may be able to turn it a bit higher but the problem then kicks in again.

What could be the issue that I'm having? Come on redz...I bet u may know lol

lol...love em all especially the clio...that poor guy is gonna be haunted the rest of his life with that car lol

omg...wonder if he's been done over by the nigerians on eBay yet as well lmao!

yeh mate, just where it chirps once or twice to warn people that its alarmed etc if they get too close to it. did they say it was doable tho with the standard alarm system? i know that perimeters can be turned off or the sensitivity adjusted so suppose if it gets on ur nerves then just turn it down. did they give u a quote?

does it bring them up nice n crisp n new looking dan? i'm gonna go try with some tcut on mine shortly as they're a mess...

As per title, can them perimeter systems be added to the standard IS alarm system? If so then which perimeter is it worthwhile going for?

How about fitting a K&N air filter and aftermarket exhaust? I'm sure that'll open up the engine nicely

u shoulda just done what I did mate....get a cat d n have it as a project n slowly repair it. it woulda been worth it in the end. gord has seen my car and even he can confirm at how good it is

Now that would be different but unfortunatly a bit difficult during the week. Maybe another time tho mate.

hmm thats interesting. so if u wanna do a complete flush hows it done as i know its been mentioned but i'm still a bit confused on it. how much did u have left over when u used a 5 litre one kam05?

ahh right, I didnt know that u need 7 litres for the IS200. So as I need to change my coolant soon should I get 7 litres or 2 lots of 5 so I have some spare?

why's there such a big price difference between the prices I got and ormi's? also why have I been quoted for a 7 litre pink coolant? hmmm

Mental!
