well i live on a slight incline but i still ended up going 2foot forward and 100metres backwards :( Ive never been worried to drive (had prego misiz in car 5days til due) ive parked my car on the main road at the top of mine just incase i need to go hospital. I played back my house CCTV and saw me spinning down the road lmao :)

gutted, I was only thinking of this the other day. thought it could be good to warm up the car before I get in.

I'll do a little video test on my next day off and post my findings.

Traction control is like ABS in reverse. It uses tha ABS sensors to measure wheel speeds if the driven wheel speeds exceed the non driven wheel speed (car breaks traction) then the ECU cuts the power and on some cars applies the breaks to regain traction.

Lol I know, wtf.

I wouldnt bother doing in for a while yet, All that road salt being spread by the gritters will just have it looking the same again.

Thanks Stevie WIKI says : A resonator is a device or system that exhibits resonance or resonant behavior, that is, it naturally oscillates at some frequencies, called its resonance frequencies, with greater amplitude than at others. Although its usage has broadened, the term usually refers to a physical object that oscillates at specific frequencies because its dimensions are an integral multiple of the wavelength at those frequencies. The oscillations or waves in a resonator can be either electromagnetic or mechanical (including acoustic). Resonators are used to either generate waves of specific frequencies or to select specific frequencies from a signal. Musical instruments use acoustic resonators that produce sound waves of specific tones. A cavity resonator, usually used in reference to electromagnetic resonators, is one in which the waves exist in a hollow space inside the device. Acoustic cavity resonators, in which sound is produced by air vibrating in a cavity with one opening, are known as Helmholtz resonators. Interesting

I was doing some cleaning inside and out my car when I saw this box. Sorry about my awesome photoshop skills adding the red arrow lol, But what is it? from a n00b

Stav your a star! I checked all my lights and they were all ok, I forgot about the parcel shelf one DOH! cheers :)

I found this out on newyears days, I stopped at my mate on a very slight incline and was stuck for 10 mins! I was trying to reverse but it would not budge, had to get my mates to push me as i feathered the throttle. does snow button work in reverse? :)

Hi guys I have a warning light on that looks like this ( ! ) I have put new brake pads on and topped up the fluid but it still comes on when I press the brakes. Could it be something to do with the after market dvd unit in my car? it is all wired up to the handbrake correctly as law requires.

Hi guys and girls My names Richie, I'm 26 from merseyside (wirral) I drive a black IS200 SE. Just joined up to see whats what and see what everyone is doing with there cars. I have been driving it for about 5months now and love it. I hope to keep this car for a while so I've been learning how to do things to it, So far i have done brake pads all round and changed 2 shock absorbers. :)
