    P38A Sunroof Sunshade.

    From memory we took the headlining out to recover it but didn't want to remove all the sunroof rails, etc so I think I removed the glass and with a little gentle bending got it out and back in again

    P38 Correct wheel nuts?

    Came with 18" alloys with road tyres fitted, but also what I believed to be the original 16" alloys with a very nice set of aggressive tyres on, so I swapped them. The MOT man thinks the nuts are the wrong ones as very little of the washer makes contact with the wheel? Bought a set from a R reg...

    P38 Top hose and Gearbox over heat sensor

    I would assume the controller looks for a certain temp range from memory its a bit better than just a Thermal strip like a Kettle But I also read it just switches it to earth but I dont think this is the case as it would stop the alarm if the wire was cut?

    P38 Top hose and Gearbox over heat sensor

    I think I did? I think its the plug on the side of the Rad mount between the Power steering res. Usually temp sensor controllers look for a resistance so if it goes open circuit it knows the sensor is faulty

    P38 Top hose and Gearbox over heat sensor

I get Gearbox overheat fault as soon as I start up so I suspect the sensor, some journeys it never goes off? Had a look and I think I can see the wires but cant see the sensor on the little rad? Any idea of...

    1976 S3 Will Not Turn Over?

    Place a jump lead between the battery negative and the exhaust manifold, if it turns over that points to the earth connection either on the battery to chassis or chassis to engine, quite common on older vehicles, the lead can look perfect but be corroded internally. Do you know how to test the...
