  1. Had a few issues over December, firstly be engine light came on but quickly diagnosed it to the o2 sensor had hit something on the road perks of being low!! Then had the rear light warning indicator and oil pressure light come on at the same time plus the rev counter and mpg meter died! really got me baffled as all lights were working and no signs of burning or low oil pressure after full inspection the cause of this issue was a wet fuse box (passenger footwell) a few connection had gone green etc not great! Anyways all lights not out and dried but since this happened the clock will reset to 1:00 everytime be car is started and the battery is showing the correct voltage, also radio fuses checked and ideas ??

  3. had a search but couldn't find any previous topics, just wondering if anyone has fitted or knows how to install lock spacers on the is200, I've got a pair to fit but any info would be great before i start.. thanks in advance
  4. Fitted my new wheels and with the height my cars sat at it had some scrub on fast corners on weight transfer... answer to my own question is the arches can be fully rolled i was annoyed at the advice given to me hy the garage in saying there wasn't much that could be done besides cutting the arch lips off!! I just used a trolley jack, heat gun and baseball bat! Then some wax oil just to ensure everything was totally sealed...
  5. Sound suspension related,either shock or Spring maybe? as you say it's when weight is on it and when turning left it will be the weight transferring to that wheel causing the problem.
  6. Would get the air con system checked for leaks if not might be condenser !
  7. Was booked in to get my arches rolled at a well known garage in Newcastle, didn't end up getting them rolled as they said they can't roll the fronts the lips need to be cut due to the depth and the rears can only be rolled around 8" in length from the boot side to centre (also my arches are in good condition no rust etc so that wasn't the reason).. Surely this can't be right I've seen enough is200 with rolled arches. Can anyone recommend a solution or know of a good body shop / arch rollers in the north east?
  8. looks really good and the Maf adapter looks nicely done, the clamps heavy duty enough haha!
  9. Think if it were me I would question the seller about this just curious as to how they would respond !?
  10. Good luck and get some pictures up after you're done !
  11. Plus one on the 1gfe not being pretty without its cover! Luckily with reliability don't need to open the bonnet that much though 😜 As for clamps / brackets I used an old metal support off my impreza, you'rs will be different layout but should be fairly easy to design you're own support bracket
  12. There's a lot of debate about induction kits, panel filters, how much power the gain and loose etc..... that discussion belongs somewhere else though I've been wanting to build up a induction kit for a while but as you all know there's not all that much available and It's a rather expensive placebo... So anywhere here's mine fitted obviously it now has clamps on the hoses and a breather filter fitted... If anyone wants measurements or links to the parts just drop me a pm or a can help them build one up, I will be fitting my old Bmc cda later to keep things a bit cooler though....
  13. Not missing they were optional extras, but seeing as you have the optionals on be front and back he sideskirts would compliment it even more !
