definitely no silver button and i think it won't fit newer nokia handsets.probably safer to just leave it there.it's not really in the way.

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / mobile phone holder

« on: 24 September 2007, 15:03:38 »

i have a mobile phone holder which is not oem.it is for nokia phones i believe.my friend has tried his phone in the holder and when rung it cuts the radio out.the wiring disappears behind the control panel.does anybody have any idea if you need a different holder for each make of phone or if you can get a universal adapter.i don't really want to touch the wiring unless i have to.

hope someone can help with a problem that has just occurred.all of a sudden my demisters have stopped working and there is a lot of water on the floor behind the passeger seat.i'm certain that no water is coming in from sunroof or an open window.do any water pipes run in that vicinity?some airflow seems to come from the vents when recirculatory button is pressed.auto button doesn't seem to work now.any ideas appreciated.car is 2.6cdx estate 2001.

thanks.is there an easy way to flush as it's a bit difficult to get to the bottom hose at the side of the road,also does hbv need changing or will the flush sort it out?.

Its more than likely to be the oil cooler that at fault not the headgasket

had a report from the garage,mayo is also coming out of the hbv,take it that will need replacing as well.thermostat is also knackered.what's the going price for repairing the oil cooler?.

maybe bosch have changed the design, I bought one at the start of the year, 1-2 months later it was in the bin, replaced with a Vauxhall one (which is also cheaper   )  and never looked back.

didn't need the wiper then.
