Sounds like you might be booking an appointment with Mr Muscle.

That's a petrol thing as well as diesel, isn't it?

@Connor H - I have a very basic pressure tester if you want to borrow it
Going to keep my eye on it as i wont be driving much while its snowing, but will likely call on you to borrow it. How do they work?

Definitely sounds like a loud whirr more than the usual turbo whistle. Havnt had the time to properly listen to it. Fingers crossed i just have a hole in the TIP lol

Silly question time, is it possible to code out the rear electric windows? Guessing the answer is yes but just want to check
The windows aren't coded in. Why do you want to deactivate them anyway?
If you don't want them to work simply unplug the individual motors on the regulator panels.

Also, you do realise that you can isolate the rear window switches from drivers door switch don't you?

“Bought” a ko3s 3in down pipe off him. But it never existed. Had chats with the guy on threads for a few weeks. Posted I was after one. He had one. No PayPal so I did it through the bank. Fool me once shame on you, although I feel the idiot. I messaged the guy six times and he’s ignored me.

Spoke to the admins and he’s been banned, another guy said he’s had his pants down too.

More concerned about him properly ripping someone else off to be honest.

Alas, it’s the first time I’ve ever been scammed. It’s embarrassing lol

I realise the risk I took going through bank transfer. I accepted that risk. I’m just a trusting person
