  1. The proper volvo engines are good! not the shite I have
  2. Mines a ford one with a PSA engine as used in citroen's and pugs
  3. Exactly the same switch as in my V50
  4. Simply put no you can't Unless you're under instruction and insured for it
  5. The connectors that they crimp are poor! get the crimp set that @V650 recommends and buy some decent connectors like this type https://www.automotiveconnectors.com/connector-terminals.html you can then create crimps and connectors that are as good as or better than OEM You can also buy decent superseal connectors and create a removable watertight connection Superseal Connectors The possibilities are endless with a decent set soldered joints can go brittle due to vibration
  6. Well the stars have aligned! Breakfast run in morning
  7. Morning! Was hoping to get out on the bike tomorrow! then the wife reminded me I have jobs to do for the inlaws
  8. @husoi mentioned about a TMBF App thats available Its not an app as such but uses the browser to create a shortcut that can be used like an app providing a direct link to the forum. I have copied and pasted the information below from the Invision community website so you can "install" it if you so wish There is also some info on Mobile notifications too Invision community provides support for push notifications on mobile devices.

    Mesh network

    I have these https://www.currys.co.uk/products/tplink-deco-x20-whole-home-wifi-system-triple-pack-10222658.html On in the living room one upstairs and one in the garage this gives me a good connection all through the house to the front garden and in to the back garden there is no dead spots within my boundary and it does extend further than that The furthest each one is away from each other is 12 metres or so
  14. With all the correct information and the right to ownership they can cut you a key and do the alarm and immobiliser if fitted too

    Clutch grabbing

    Some bikes have a back torque limiter built in to the clutch It's a cheaper slipper clutch really! When the engine is spinning below a certain amount or revs it releases pressure on the clutch springs this works two fold by lightning the clutch action but also allowing the plates to slip on overrun preventing rear wheel lock up on down shifts When above a certain rev range they make the clutch springs pull tighter on the plates and its this that causes the grabby clutch This is a common problem on some Suzuki's and Kawasaki's so might be worth checking if you have one! A solution to this on the suzuki TLs/r was to weld the clutch centre to stop it operating
  16. 2-3 hours here! It estimates it off your connection speed Mine then proceeds and takes about 10 mins from start to finish
  17. Serviced it today! First one that BMW haven't done
  18. Hi and welcome to the forum Have you tried a new battery?
  19. Yeah it might be worth doing although like others on here I always keep my last photocard licence and never send it back due to horror stories like this
  20. Touche I have just checked my licence online in the hope that you could print it off as evidence but I don't think they would accept that
  21. Sounds like its going the right way
  22. It will wait till you have a signal plus it will work off the weakest of 2g signals Pretty sure they all work off the GPRS network otherwise how would you be able to track it?
