Yeah no worries...

Don't buy a clarion but... They're s**t... Or at least the nx302a is anyway... Always glitched and jammed up...

Touch wood this unit is still going great... And as I mentioned the only issue is manually launching the app once the screen locks...

Cheers,
Tim

Hey you guys who have had a go at colouring your trims... Getting mixed feelings from reading things, but how hard is it likely to be to colour code the ED dash to the same as the EL trims?

I love what I have installed... Just sometimes the dash being 2 shade out bugs the crap out of me...

Maybe I'm just OCD but and it's not worth the effort... Which is quite possible...

Cheers,
Tim

I thought the vinyls had to be died? Seemed something you'd more see someone who works with vinyls and fabrics for?

Cheers,
Tim

Dudes,

Has anyone got a spare good AU Hego laying around they don't want? May end up buying a new one yet just to try fix my cold morning issue... Still toying with what it could be...

Cheers,
Tim

Scratch that... Ebay has new Bosch units for $40 so hardly worth chasing a good second hand one... On the flip side managed to source myself a different variant of the PCM from an AU2 manual today so I'll try that out... Mine has a catch code of 12WC what has the manual ETV code on it but the scanners (including Ford's IDS) see it as an auto computer... And I have 2 of these both of which came from "manual" cars... So I found a 22AA today which registers as a manual PCM on the scanners... So I'll see if it is a computer issue that brings on my surging... If not I'll replace the Hego in case it is doing weird things when it's cold... Short of that I'll try the TPS... After that I have no idea... Anyway... 1 step at a time...

Today was fixing of the front door speaker issue today... My El trims have murdered my JBL splits... The melted dags that hold the grills on squashed the rubber ring of the cones to the point where it has split the rubber and this may have contributed to poorer than expected sound due to limited cone movement... So I removed the grills, cut the holes in the trim to suit and siliconed the grills back on... See how long they remain for because the trims flex a fair bit between the two sections when you take them off and put them on... If they don't stay there forever then sikaflex will fix that...

Hey Tim
Had a similar issue with mine for the last month or so, surging and playing up when cold. Swapped out and tested everything, including ecu, but nothing helped.

Had already tried two second hand ford o2 sensors, both of which tested ok.
Put a brand new borg warner o2 sensor in, fixed.

Yeah? There you go then... Might be just when that sensor is really cold... Only does it on cool mornings at the moment... Because its hot again here it isn't doing it... But if for some reason it is 20 degrees in the morning then it does it once or twice til the engine warms ever so slightly and it's gone...

Might order that Bosch sensor... Didn't see any borg warner ones listed but?

Cheers,
Tim

Yeah no worries... Probably why I didn't notice it... Yeah Au has a 4 wire sensor for whatever reason...

Cheers,
Tim

Ah too late now... Already purchased the Bosch one and it's been shipped... Will keep that in mind for the future but... Had problems with Bosch or just no problems with NTK?

Cheers,
