Many years ago on a long transatlantic flight, an elderly lady asked if she could visit the cockpit. When she got up there, she found four crewmen.

She asked the first what he did, and he explained that he was the navigator and what his responsibilities were.

She turned to next one and asked what he did. He explained that he was the engineer and...

At a loss to find a home for this. I mentioned to a colleague that we should have a Tesla self-driving fork lift at work and he showed me this on his phone:

verr, verr interestig! (if only i could work out to translate it).

Yes now I see the front of the van, it's obviously a Pug* (but which of their J-types I really wouldn't know) but I'd only seen it from a sort of 3/4 r. view - AND made an assumption. I've only seen it parked almost off that picture, to the left.

That's a different traction...

The link is working. Will bookmark that

I think the later pouch is more expensive by virtue of the additive rather than the volume - data suggests that it will use >3l over 75k, so a 3.3l pouch seems about right (not sure where you saw the volume, Marc?).

There aren't any diagrams for the internals Robin - it's another replacement module - however it will be worth attempting a DIY clean with some electrical contact cleaner. We have a problem with the temperature / timer 'jog dial' on our oven - you either get a small increment or it goes mad and jumps hours making fine tuning an art. I used some...

Netflix now have all the Prime Suspect series, so watched the first one last night and Helen Mirren has a new (at the time) BX 19 GTi 4X4, while the others are running around in their Cavaliers and Astras.

The car is actually SORN at present.

Too bad the photos aren't loading properly but the links are still working so I'm going to use that

I don't know if the Lidl ones are any good but miniature Lithium Ion booster packs in general are the real deal and will start a car with a flat battery.

Hello, I sold two new ones last week. I have been looking at some of the devices to prevent the damage and have been wondering about using seat belt webbing and the normal strut mounting bolts?
A standard safety-belt has a tensile strength of around 3,000 Kg. I have also seen complete cars being carried using a single seat belt webbing. When I...

Put me on that around Glasgow Steve. I can pick stuff up and hold or post for members.

Done and thanks :)

That's what I thought. In the past, I've had numerous discussions/arguments concerning this.
Apologies for going off topic...
New earth lead fitted: no more smoking.
Thanks for the succinct explanation Chris :-)

You don't have to remove the rear cylinder to fit a dowty seal. I've just done it in about 2 hrs using a multi tool. Instructions are on the dowty seals work thread
And just done a second one in 1hr 15 min from wheels down to wheels down.

As some of you may have noticed, I'm all over the place - & generally driving around - although not so much in the Winter months.

Always happy to help.

You need the ones like this:

You always could do that by opening another tab (Ctrl-click) or window (Shift-click) on the post's individual header and then copying the URL of that post. I've just checked and it still works.

All the major producers now only supply via distributors ( Shell, Fuchs, Castrol, Total etc). The distributors are rated gold, silver and bronze and you can only buy from the distributor based on your annual spend.i.e. don't expect any favours on price!.

We've all come up against that problem at some point.
Copaslip works well and is what I use, copaslip though not copper grease which doesn't halt the galvanic corrosion. Some people favour a paper gasket which has many reports of success.
Swapping the sides is a good solution if you can, it was reported some time ago that a member here found that...

Nice tip thanks Jim, will have to get an eye out. No need to worry about Win10 either, 7 does all I need and more :D

The current stable release is 2.8.22. There are Exif Viewer extensions freely available, but I tend to use Photoshop in the main (as I couldn't be bothered to learn another image editing programme). I do dive into Gimp every now and then, but as luck would not have it, I am shortly going to be in the middle of a Windows 10 repair, so can't look...

I have just adjusted a forum setting which should have fixed this issue.

There 2 sizes belts for late 1.9 TD's depending on the Air con compressor.

Sanders 1735mm and Delphi 1752mm. The eccentric tension is locked in place for easy removal and fitting.

In short,

Assuming that it is an android device then there should be a "settings->application manager" menu (the actual path depends on the manufacturer and android version), which lists all the installed apps. You should find tapatalk there and there should be options to delete cache or application data. If that fails, try uninstalling...

Damnit!

Should have locked it :(

Have now :P

That's very valuable when reading wiring Diagrams Marc. Excellent :D

Everything I buy from Japan, China, Taiwan, Singapore and Greece I always get them to declare the value as <£15 so there are no customs charges.
Most of them do this automatically now anyway.
Same from USA & Canada but rarely buy from there now.

Not from a Citroen, but as they're similar underneath, I hope it helps!!

While I have yet to use the Like/Love feature, I am already getting irritated by the fact that, whenever somebody Likes/Loves a comment I get shown all of the Like/Love action (as opposed to just the once since I last saw them). It clutters up the home page when I log back in.
As an experiment, I have added another option to the user profile that...

The rear sensor mount is a brilliant piece of lateral thinking. Obvious really - once someone has thought of it!

Ok, I had a look at the Kingas (why do we call it that, by the way?) site and found myself pretty impressed.
However, they make no mention anywhere of Xantia strut tops. Only XM ones.
Also, no clues about pricing, just vague hints that bulk orders are preferred and more cost effective!
If they do all that they suggest they can, I think I'll be...

Thanks.

Martin prefers to use the phone as he doesn't have much time to access his computer.

This is me back again about the blower which runs at full speed as soon as the ignition is switched on I havent had time to check the module as I am not very confident about it so is there any way that I could put a switch in to switch the fan on and off as I need it if so could someone explain it to me. Thanks

Hi, Iwas replying to a message dated Mon. 28th Sept 2009. Yes time does go very slowly when you are retired, there are only 3working hours in a day and anything after 1230 is a bonus. Gerry
