Re: Xbox One

Is it me or does the one grafix look too similar to the 360.
Doesn't seem to be much improvement between 360 and one compared to the jump from last generation?

I'm sure a decent spec PC would still kick the new gen butt!

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Windows getting steamy .....;)

But won't this only stop it getting condensation when sitting?

It only steams up with heater on and car running.

Stick a screwdriver in end of lead and leave on rocker cover. Should see a spark without removing plugs.

Re: car wont start

Sure you have fuel? I did the same. It drove OK till parked up then realised the fuel was low (not on red) so dismissed it.
Then I thought maybe the gauge is wrong As it has white dials and I was right!

I don't usually, however the one time I did I noticed the lack of higher boost - hence why I wasn't too sure on the reading.

I find when its cold it only boosts to.about 0.2.


0.2 bar = 2.9 psi. You have a problem somewhere.


Its prob more like.0.5 bar but it is limited until it warms up. Maybe a good thing so I can't thrash it when its cold.

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] HELP!! Car wont run!

So your suspecting AFM?

Would this stop a spark? I've got no spark from the king lead?

Also would this also cause the problem with the cel? Its still not lighting unless I short the w pin(green/white) to earth.

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] HELP!! Car wont run!

I'm assuming if I leave the cel light pin shorted to earth and then shorted the diagnostic pin then I won't get a diagnostic? Also I know Pete has said bad AFM then but I'm not getting a spark on the king lead either and there is still a problem with the ecu side of things if I get a cel if I short ...
