Car Parts, bits For Sale & Wanted / F/S Very Late Elite Wheels
« on: 21 April 2014, 12:14:06 »
Hi guys,
Right selling my elite wheels only recently brought them they desperately need refurbing as the guy I brought them from obviously didn't like prep work so just thought.... yer that will do and just painted on top of corrosion
looks awesome 
I do have a couple of options for pricing
Bare Rims with Centre Caps £130
Bare Rims, Centre Caps delivered via courier £175
Rims with Centre caps, 4 decent Tyres, nitrogen inflated and balanced £200 collected
All wheels are straight and true as I have checked on the wheel balancing machine at work, despite appearance they are in good form

Omega General Help / Gearbox Oil?
« on: 20 April 2014, 11:09:18 »
Hi Guys,
ive looked into the maintenece guides and what not regarding actually checking the fluid, im guessing its simular to checking the fluid levels on diffs undo the nut and watch it trickle out right?
because i had mine up on the ramp the other day cracked off the nut to check and it flew out! so i quickly done it back up (was flowing for about 1/4 of a second)
Is my box supidly overfilled, but if it is how? because surely the once youve filled up to the hole it would trickle out?
or am i doing it completely wrong? lol

« on: 28 March 2014, 18:09:18 »Right Guys Long overdue
The CDX is powering on UK (Sh1te) roads once more
With a brand new Cat Back exhaust system and a Nearside Manifold/Downpipe gasket she purrs how its supposed to
it then had Some Pirelli 225 55 16's fitted that i had in the workshop
after all the hassle i had with the knock sensor i finally managed to get the second one in and its still working (touch wood)
I have recently purchased some late Elite/MV6 alloys but they are in dier need of refurbing as they look like they have been brought up from the top deck of Titanic.
My most recent change has been from CDX Cloth to Late MV6 Leathers (many thanks to Zirk - Pleasure to meet you sir)
and here is the difference
Still awaiting confirmation off new doors and front and rear bumpers but im on the case
Stay tuned....

Maintenance Guides / How to Repair Facelift Climate Control Issue DRIVERSIDE
« on: 28 March 2014, 17:51:58 »
Hi Guys and Girls,
Ever since i got my CDX ive never had a functioning Heater for the Driverside - It worked but i had only one heat setting ICE COLD!! (so the air con works
)
I see an earlier Maintenence guide for the Passangerside but then that side was working on mine it was the Driver that was getting blumen cold!
So this is how i cured it
First i started by putting the Front seats on there Lowest Height setting, Furthest position back with the back support at the furthest it will go.
Now comes the most awquard bit trying to lay upside down in the driverside footwell Good Luck! but when you find the right spot to lay in you can be there till your done
Now remove the Footwell Kick Panel by removing the 3 Retaining clips by simply twisting them a quater of a turn
Next step is two remove the kickpanel fuse cover which is simply on push clips, open the fuse box lid fully and simply prise off at the base where the two clips join the dash
Like so
Now you can gain access to main areas but you need to remove the feet heater plenum chamber which is simply held in by one fixing plastic retaining clip remove this and the whole chamber will come out in your hand simply by turning
You will now see a Plastic cap with a single torx head screw visible the Plastic Cap simply pulls off (trust me it does)
Here is the Climate Control matrix control valve motor (as told by Vauxhall) there is several higher up which control the electronic positioning e.g. Windscreen/Face/Feet and Recirculate
This CCMCV is Slightly larger than the others and in a completly different location as it is controlling the Air Temperature feed to The Driverside
Now Here comes the fiddily bit, remove both little retaining Torx screws which hold the CCMCV to its housing (These are Silver in colour) BUT LEAVE THE PLUG PLUGGED IN.
Once removed the Motor should fall out of its housing now i wedged the hanging motor and wiring between the join in the Dash/Centre Console just to hold the wiring out of the way.
Now remove the 3 Gold Torx Head screws on the housing (bigger head) they all look like this (two are visible the last 3rd one is towards the centre console) once removed you will reveal the Matrix Air Temperature Control Arm
Now it will become quite apparent that something is obviously wrong because youll see the black MATCA is not attached to the Yellow Cradle Arm attached to the back of Housing, (as seen in the back of the above picture)
I Simply removed the Metal Controling rod relocation the arm on the Yellow Cradle Arm(as seen in the back of the above picture) which is simply just a push through hole and relocated both plastic arms back together again and then repeated the removal procedure but in reverse 
Hope this is simple enough its easier when its infront of you

Car Parts, bits For Sale & Wanted / Free to collect Facelift Cloth Interior
« on: 21 March 2014, 07:16:41 »
Hi Guys and Girls,
I've recently put MV6 Leathers in My CDX project so the cloth interior is redundant
It has a few marks on the drivers seat which looks like fag burns from pervious owners or something that melted the material
And one of the rear bolsters the top plastic brackets is broken
Hence being free if someone wants it it's going to the tip on Monday next week so let me know ASAP
