It's the body kit. Like on mine

EBay number 400562808272

That's the lights. Went level 2 with Re gen labs. Its easy to do but you need to go through the fire wall to get to the fuse box.

Dpf and egr delete plus shark stage 2 map tweaked up a bit but lots of smoke, I run their stage 1 map for everyday driving, I think its around 205bhp on stage 1 if I remember correctly

Washed my car today; saw few small dent marks & a scratch on drivers door of my car. Its all because of my neighbour who parks very close to mine & don't care when opening his car door. i don't know what to do; i need to catch him while he is doing this. Thinking of putting some camera in my car & monitoring. Please suggest if anyone has some idea..

Tie him to a chair and proceed to bum his wife in front of him

wipe your c0ck on the curtains on your way out and yell "payback for denting my car!"

:D

*clearly the above is a joke.


Hopefully you'll catch him in the act and be able to have a word in his shell

Just swapped my number plate bulbs for some non error LED's and once again it looks like they are throwing up errors, got the bulb icon lit up on the dash.

Very quickly tried the turn off and back on trick to clear it but no joy :( really seem to struggle to get any non error LED's for this car.

Scotch lock a sidelight bulb inside the bumper :)

The car senses a high/open resistance to determine that a bulb filament has blown. Be interesting to know what resistance it would be happy with. Slightly irrelevant though because you can't put a low value resistor in line because the ecu will still see the high resistance. Low resistance value bulbs is the only way to go. Saying that resistive values of equal value placed in parallel with the bulbs on the circuit then the resistance value of the circuit halves but it seems like a whole load of hassle compared to getting the correct bulbs.

This is what's recommended by the seller should the bulbs error, to be honest I can't be arsed with the hassle, if they don't just work then I'm not really interested, can't be doing with messing around even though they do look far better than the standard yellow look bulbs.

You could just do what I suggested.. Will take you all of 10 minute to do both bulbs and then you are guaranteed no errors cause there's a standard bulb inside the bumper...
