They are made by PU Design, based on S206 side skirts, they come with the STI emblems i haven't put those on yet though. I'm still undecided whether to get them sprayed or leave them as they are

So got new Battery, put it in, still nothing...devastated.

Called out low loader recovery who came out and hooked car up to winch on. I had to turn ignition and take out of park (obviously) for him to load it and heard it try to fire up. Tried again in neutral and it started no bother.

Spoke to my garage bloke who said it may not have been registering as being fully in park, hence stopping it starting. God knows how tho as it normally won’t let me take the key out.

Never felt so relieved or humiliated hahaha lesson learned tho and nice new more powerful Battery in place [emoji106]

Thats what i meant for you to check


Its not anything to do with the auto box ( ie wont start in park or drive )




But when i read it back it looked a bit like i was asking if you if knew how to drive a auto [emoji4]

You've had it over a year now ain't ya , bud , so hopefully you've got the hang of it by now [emoji23]

Glad it was a simple fault and nothing expensive [emoji106]

Going back to the wash thing, it sounds to me like water has got in somewhere is shouldn't have and caused gremlins, fingers crossed this is it for it, might be worth a quick butchers for any likely suspects tho! Glad it's sorted tho, nothing worse than not having it working

Yeah, noticed the ‘P’ dash light is the only one not lighting this morning. Maybe coincidence but maybe not [emoji106]

So pleased for you mate that it wasn't anything more serious or expensive. Far rather look a bit foolish but honestly not many people would of thought of that.

Had a lot of fun!

Sump baffle solved my boost issues. Would recommend that mod if anyone has track day boost issues.

My brakes were rather shocking. Once hot massive amounts of steering wobble [emoji848] Had a bit of a fueling issue late on and a top/head knock which was suspect injector but later the knock cleared. Didn't get to retest the hesitation. It was in 4th/5th heavy load, every so often it would just cough slightly. Gonna whip the injectors out and have them flow tested/cleaned.

Even ploughed a field for the boys at brands. f285d65d31467209cb0b8fb965cbe267.jpg3791f90146d48b39ff62f5c6c64efcba.jpg

Might be worth checking any associated switches and connections from the gearstick that tells the ecu what position the gearstick is in . As it sounds like a iffy connection somewhere to me , bud

I think there is something up with the gearbox or mechanism - the wife has had the car out today and has had all sorts of problems apparently. I've noticed it strangely stiff at times recently when moving the selector. Hope its nothing too costly; going to get it looked at as soon as I can get it booked in if it continues this weekend.
