  1. Hi there, Just joined and hoping to get some advice please. I have a silver 2.8 Cabriolet 1999. mileage is 172,586, It is sitting in my garage, been there a couple of years. I've had it since 2003,, it has a new battery, roof needs attention, so used manually in past. Engine is great, tyres good, no MOT. I would like to sell it but haven't a clue what it's worth?
  2. Generally theres lots on line and the US is often a good source for belts and hoses. Check images before you buy or send the seller a picture to confirm , if in doubt. If there's already a hose that looks changed it's often best to leave it . Think about new stainless clips too. You won't need it but if ever really stuck for a shaped hose, you can buy a straight pipe and a stainless spring to put inside which allows you to bend the hose without kinks. Last resort is take off a hose,.. find a recent car at breakers from which you can cut off any hose of a similar shape and diameter, may be just part of a long hose. ...
  3. Back to basics Chris, As Richard mentioned about the importance of battery quality - what make of battery was fitted? Can you obtain some voltage readings from your mechanic? Present static battery voltage 1 hr. after a reasonable run? Alternator output measured at the battery? Regards, Gareth.
  4. Was the battery coded to the car when it was installed? A good quality AGM battery is essential these days. I don’t think that’s the reason for the drain, but more likely a parasitic drain. Anything fitted that’s after market? You know, uprated speaker amp, dash cam, etc? Invest in a cheap multimeter, or seek out an auto electrician would be my advice.
  5. Hi guys, I'm new to this forum and would appreciate any, help with my battery problem. I replaced the battery on my car about 1 year ago and all appears ok when I drive it daily, however following 4 days of no use the lights on the dash came on and the orange battery warning light appeared, I tried starting the car but not enough power to get it started. I used my friends booster charger and it started straight away and was ok for the rest of the day. I didn't use the car for three days after this and I had the same problem -a fairly flat battery that would't start the car. I took it to the guy who supplied the battery and following tests on the battery and the charge from the alternator he said the battery was getting a full charge and that the alternator was doing it's job too. It seems to me that the battery is somehow discharging itself but would be glad to hear any thoughts that may lead me to a solution, regards Nobby.
