Does anyone know why the drivers' side has a three-wire connection like the passenger one, and then another two wire block? Surely it doesn't have (gasp!) a heater?

Timmo, on the pretext of a trip to Cornwall I might be up for some hardcore paint restoration. I have an extremely pink phase 1, what can you do and how much?

(more) Phase 2 alloys!

Since my trip to tecw1979s place I have some phase 2 alloys (no tyres) for sale. I bought them for the tyres but I have no use for the wheels, being a phase 1 owner! They looked very ratty when I got them but I have cleaned them up with a wire brush and they're actually looking OK. Two are in good c...

Retracking AFM

OK, novice question alert. What does "retracking" the AFM actually mean? Cleaning, replacing the track...? The top of mine has been taken off and then glued back down again, I want to know what I'm doing before I butcher it further. Reason I ask is, my 16v has been failing to start from ho...

And a genuine Citroen one will cost 200, or my friendly salesman offered me a discount to 150 if I waited so they could order it with lots of other similar parts.

I'm a little confused that the fan can have 12v but not go!? As far as I can work out Tim - I'm no electrician but... sounds like the fans always have +12v fed to them, but the thermoswitch connects the "other side" of the fan to the -ve end of the circuit, completing the loop - so there'...

Geek post!

I have trouble with my G4 ibook. Yesterday it froze (didn't even give me a kernel panic grey screen) and then when I restarted it, I get a folder with a flashing question mark on it. Have tried the following... Booting in safe mode; won't boot Inserting OSX install CD; comes up with the apple, then ...

Honestly robin, your RS is disgustingly shiny :wink: Seriously, it looks great, that's the top end of my price range mind, but it's good to know what I'd be getting. Did you take the trim off yourself or did they do it? Can't remember what you said when I saw you. I've been forgetting to post you th...
