Many thanks Mark, I have a 2004 V8 L322 I feel it is steering related as I was out today and it seems worse in bends. Which I had not noticed before so I will will have a good look when it dries up here the weather is horrendous.

Thanks Mark, I think you could well be right as it is not doing it all the time and when climbing the hill back to ours it's at it's worse. I will check that out thank you.

Thanks no chance of that today howling wind and rain even the ferry was cancelled.

I had a vibration under acceleration from around 35mph-50mph I thought is was just wheel balance so got all four balanced and it seemed slightly better but it was still there, I noticed tonight under fairly heavy acceleration you did notice it but when I came off the gas it was quite dramatic...

Yes please I will have a set with the baffles. Thanks.

That's the one thanks very much.

Good advice I will try that thanks.

I was told it was the cats but you may well be right guys on the vanos solenoids I will check that first and if it is that solves that problem. Discool you are correct we do not have a MOT on the island unless you import a vehicle over and if it is over three years old it has to go through a...

My 2004 V8 l322 is rattling on start up and believe it is the cats, I have got decat pipes for it but I would like more V8 sound to come from the exhaust without going crazy and buying a full system, I did see a seller on Ebay a while ago who did pipes with small built in silencers and you cut...

Yes he is based in London if I remember right he has a website if you Google him.

I had exactly the same problem with mine and it was the BM54 amp I took it out and sent it to Baris at carphonics, great guy to deal with and very quick service at a reasonable cost, I can highly recommend him and he can do upgrades to them.

Many thanks, I found a good quality (I hope) scissor Jack so I have ordered one only time will tell if it's up to the job but the manufacturer assures me it is.

That's good to know thanks, I will have a look to see what height the bottle Jack's lift to see if they will lift on the sill pads.

So that might not be the answer it may be best to get an aftermarket bottle Jack. The P38 Jack looks to be a good size has anyone else had any problems with the P38 Jack.

So the P38 uses a bottle Jack that sounds like the very job.

I seem to have my gearbox and brake pad warning faults sorted now, it turned out to be the inhibitor switch on the gearbox that was bringing up the failsafe mode. All was going well until today when I got a puncture I got the car lifted but the Jack did not look very stable and as I was gently...

Yes that is the problem over here batteries are classed as dangerous goods and cannot be sent so you have to buy on island and you pay for it big time. That was what brought us over TT and MGP and bought a house on the course we love it here.

Thanks Datatek I do have a smart charger and I will do that, it looks like he has sold me an inferior battery at £200. I will go and see him tomorrow, once again a huge thanks for all your help.

Sound advice guys thank you I will go back to him and give him the bad news but if it solves my problem I will be happy.

Yes Saint it's a small island so it's all short distance on work days but I do put it on a trickle charge every Fridaty night and it has cut off by the morning being fully charged, I have been a "big" drive today about 40 miles and checked it on our return, the charge was 98% and state of health...
