If I recall, it's the blue one...which is the one which is engaged when the pedal is released (in the up position). The white switch is the one which is engaged when the pedal is depressed (down position). That's the one which allows the engine to start. If you disconnect the blue switch...

Thanks, yeah it's Mark. I might ask about this when I'm in for a service towards the end of the year.

Wasn't me...but come on, stop teasing. What have you heard?

Did this today. No issues, I just made sure to be super tentative while dealing with the clock spring. I went as far as to use a bit of masking tape to stop is spinning while the wheel was off, but I'm not sure that's necessary...the bigger risk is pulling it off I think, rather than it turning...

One of my only gripes about the interior of this car...the size and functionality of the steering wheel is better than it was in the GT86, but it always feels like it's a little slippery and hard to grip, especially in the cold. Always told myself that if the opportunity arose, I'd get it...

I bet that's lovely to use... but yeah, too expensive and too much work for me. Plus not quite OEM looking enough. I can vouch for tightening up the transmission mounts though. He used a Whiteline insert and Perrin bolt. I opted for the TRD mount which is just a lot thicker than stock but...

Mines only don't 80k...looks like almost 300k though!

Yup. It thrives on neglect....my sister wasn't exactly one for rigorous car maintenance, and although dad was a bit better, he's tighter than cramp and kept it running on a shoestring. Despite that, it just kept refusing to fail an MoT, so it soldiers on. I've taken care of a few little things...

Christ. I wish I had such easy access to great roads. I, too, am feeling a pang of regret for not driving mine enough. It doesn't help that I've recently "inherited" a free car that's been knocking around in my family for years - a 2002 1.0l Toyota Yaris that my sister bought years ago, and...

I'm hoping that as I'm swapping to another OEM wheel, the splines would match up in the same place. If it's slightly off, it's not the end of the world, would just mean getting it sorted at the next alignment, but it would irritate me.

Thanks. Usually I wouldn't worry, but just want to be extra careful with this as it's so easy to get wrong.

I have a breaker bar, but would it be a bad idea to use an impact gun? I feel like that might be better to crack off the nut while I brace the wheel.

Interesting car parking arrangement for a dealership?

I recently decided I'm finally going to get around to having my steering wheel retrimmed. Something I've always wanted to do, but put off due to potentially having to leave the car immobile while its done. But I've just agreed to buy a well-worn second hand OEM wheel from another user with a...

FFS don't make me spend more money!

I wonder if it can be applied on top of the GTechniq CSU?. I'm not sure if the bodyshop had to do any blending of paint on the wings, so for belt and braces, I'd probably overlap the whole front end with the Infinity stuff if it's as good as advertised. In fact I wouldn't be averse to doing the...

Thanks, I'll look into that. Must admit, I like the idea of stuff that's just spray on and wipe off; even if it's not as long lasting, it doesn't matter if it's easy to do.

Just picked it up from the body shop. Looking good :) The finish is perhaps not quite as good as the professionally-detailed wings and bonnet; there's a hint of orange peel. However the colour match is good, which is what I was most worried about. Often find that repainted front bumpers can...
