Hi all My question is- I have an 02 td6 HSE which has the ugly non- sat nav stereo in situ. I have seen on previous threads here that some of you have upgraded to an aftermarket sat nav, DVD, stereo, and bluetooth unit for a good price. Has anyone got any experience of installing these...

Thanks texPic, its not the TC as I have just had it reconditioned. I did experience the indecision between gears at that rev range, but that has been resolved with the g-box and TC recon. This sounds more like an injector which is overfueling/underfueling causing an uneven rev pattern.

I don't want to swear but have you considered a Lexus RX460 Hybrid- it will be more reliable and more economical than a Range Rover. It will also be easy to load into/and out from and still have a safe elevated driving position. My neighbour has one and it is really quite annoyingly good!

The IID tool looks pretty good- seems to do everything I need it to- including EAS calibration should I have issues there along the line. I may need a little help- a bit delusional due to not eating for two days! It looks like a tie betweeen the Hawkeye and the IID tool- but the IID tool seems...

Thanks a lot Saint, that's great. I will have a gander at the options then. I don't really think I can justify £1000 on a diagnostic device at the moment :( Can you clarify what you mean by- 'read live data'? And which of these devices DO NOT require a laptop plugged in to them, as I only have a...

so what can you do with a fault mate that you cannot do with an all comms? And will it pick up injector issues? Fancy selling me your all comms Hippo?!

Hi all Just got back from my brother's 22nd in Dublin, came back with food poisoning- not good at all! Anyway, my engine has still got an uneven rev to it, and sounds like a cylinder or two might be overfueling/underfueling. Will plugging it in to a diagnostic box detect this- or will I only...

My girlfriend's dad put five or six cars through the agency- Rolls Royces, E types, Fiat 500 etc. All came back later than expected- but in fine condition. It's a gamble- but there are returns to be made

HSE- its a December 02 car. I find the spec just right for me. Yours is a HSE badge as well?

Oh really, didn't know they did an SE model. Does yours have a sunroof? Mine doesn't but glad about that as well- I don't like them and they have a tendency to leak! Mine has got the front and rear sensors plus xenons- so not that downgrade!

But like you say- more to go wrong- i suppose mine is probably fairly low spec- no sat nav, heated rear seats or heated steering wheel. But more than happy with it!

About 40% of the value of the car- plus they fitted a brand new roof and fixed a paint scrape on the rear wing- not bad really!

Go for it- you only live once!

When Hippo says there are some 'real basic spec HSE's out there' I let out a little LOL! 'One often struggles when one is given a Range Rover without rear heated seats'!- hardship at its worst! My L322 has regally bashed my bank account since Christmas to the order of approx £2,500- g-boc...

BBC iPlayer - Antiques Road Trip: Series 6: Episode 12 They drove my baby through a ford! :eek: I never let her see a cloud, let alone a raindrop! Yes, it is a sad time for me- forced to change my name. Here's to a new start!!! Oh and Rodntod, Beetle's are reliable beasts- there is nothing to...

Oh and I have a new name- the original Bluebeasty was giving me stick!

My mate just told me he saw my Beetle appear on tonight's episode of Antiques Roadtrip. I knew it would come up soon! Quite strange seeing Herbie on the silver screen!:cool:

north to me!

And does it start from unlocking the car or turning the key? Can it be configured to start on the button- would be bloody handy atm!

shush you! I am an office monkey and a fair weather mechanic! Plus we don't usually get weather like this down in the shire (not like you lot up t'north!) Maybe I will put some lube on the nuts in preparation :eek:
