Give us a clue hd3?

Well 17 replies and only Aaron has told the insurance and paid the extra! Anybody else out there insured? Or are we all going to Elephant next year?

Hi After a flat refusal from my insurer on a Ronbox 2e can you let us all know:- What box you have fitted? Who is your insurer? What is your age? Was there an increase in premium for the mod? or If your insurer doesn't allow it who are they Mine is Axa. No mods at all allowed on fuel...

Sounds like a good idea. I'll start one!

I was going to buy one today. Got to checkout and thought i'd better check out with insurer. Rang Axa. Big fat no. I explained that the 2e I was going to buy did not boost BHP or top speed (manufacturers claims). They rang underwriters. Bigger fatter no :mad:. They claim that anything that...

Thanks MGH. They always beep when I select reverse but from that point on is where it all goes wrong!

Does the Tiger Tuning get rid of the flat spot below 2000rpm?

Hi I have a 55plate TD4 HSE. Got in the car today. Put it in reverse and got the normal tone. Reversed back and got a higher pitched tone for about 3 seconds:eek:. The sensors have stopped working. Anybody got any ideas (other than burn it!) Thanks Tony

Hi. I put 17" scorpion str's oj mine in march. I paidabout 130 each for them fitted. That was at a garage in Ackworth (Fairways), not far from Barnsley.

Did yours need the thermostat mod? When my HG went I was recomended to "re-plumb" to a later design where the thermostat ends up in a new housing at the back of the radiator.

None of the above either. Called in a favour and took it to a mates garage. Fault code reader identified fuel pressure fault. Replaced in line pump under wheelarch and bingo - good as new. Allthe symtoms pointed to turbo solenoid but i'm glad i didn't just dive in and change it. Beware...

Hi all i have been havingsimilar problems to some of those listed. Mine is a 55 td4 3dr. I was leaving Edinburgh yesterday on the start of a 250 mile trip, put my foot down,engine revved to 3000 ish rpm and then nothing:eek:. No warning lights or smoke or funny noises, just no power to go above...

Hi I had an x plate GS. It had a Phillips R770 and CD under passenger seat. Hope this helps.

I thought battery was CR2032?

Buy a Tomtom. Mine can't make up its mind whether to work or not. Every time I decide to trust it, the damn thing decides to tell me i'm off road. I replaced the GPS aerial bit and it worked for 2 days! Waste of 30 quid!

Isn't there a Synergy 2e available that does economy only without the increased power etc?

When mine went my mate who owns a garage tried to fit a universal over the outside but it wouldn't stay on. In the end I didn't bother. I put a bit of grease in every service and kept running it. When I sold it 35k later it was still going strong. The theory was if ever it got noisy or started...

Not sure what the socket is that you found. I was told that 12s are wired direct to front of car. The last one I did was a genuine LR kit for 12s and it supplied another loom that went right through the car. So ans so of a job to do. Sorry:mad:. Tony

Replacement speaker grilles are available. I can't remember if you need to remove the door card or not to replace. It happened to mine. The door had been dismantled to replace the lock solenoid and the plastic sheet not replaced properly. I can only assume that the infiltration of damp air...

I changed two on my 3 dr a year or so ago. I picked them up second hand from one of the parts places on the net. They were a bit tricky but not too difficult. Word of warning -make sure you replace the plastic membrane and repair any tears or damp air comes through the speaker grilles and rusts...
