Common Faults

[Senninha]

If you want some more then:


Horn buttons, a bit fraglie.
Euro Smile on the rear bumper.
OEM CD autochanger sticking.

I spoke with Kowalski about this one ... Remove OEM piece, re-install with strip of alluminium to bolt to and hey presto, smile should be banished. I haven't tried this yet but he certainly has no smile at the rear

regards, Paul

[quote=NSXGB;29176]1. Internal door habdle break, - new fix it thingy from Dali fitted.
2. Snap ring - new casing available, but I opted to fit new snap ring, from HUK (£3.50).
3. Slow windows, - re-grease runners?
4. pop-up head light wobble - Tighten securing nuts via wheel arch.
5. Window regulators- plastic clip breaks - replace with Dali fixits
6. Speaker amps break - replace capacitors
7. Condensation in the rear light clusters - remove and drill a few small holes underneath.
8. Crank pulley failure on early cars irrespective of mileage. Age related failure. This will become more common over time it seems. £466 HUK
9. A/C HEATER UNIT - New caps required on pcb.
10. N/S wheel sensor = ABS/TCS lights.
11. O2 sensor = ECL and oftren TCS lights.
12. TCS Light - CEL code 3-4 (VRef Signal) - This usually relates to the main relay located on the rear bulkhead (near the TCS ECU). Either resolder the joints on the circuit board of the relay or replace the relay itself. This tends to affect early model cars.
13. Petrol Filler Flap not opening properly - Check\replace the small black (metal) spring near the hinge. Sometimes you can bend this back to make it more 'springy', P\N: 74494-SL0-000
14. Rear brake light bulb blowing and triggering the TCS and ABS lights - Replace bulb and then no problem!
15. Boot and engine cover gas struts that loose their effectiveness - refurb or new.
16. That little fan in the centre console by the ash tray that gets noisy after a while - take apart and clean.

Posted gas struts to http://www.sgs-engineering.com/gas-s...dard-range.php
got them back 2 days after posting, £12.50 each plus P+P plus Vat, just like new, cheap as chips.
