Anyone purchased/fitted a Fuel Angel (as advertised on Dragons Den by entrepreneur who got £500,000 he wanted then changed his mind)? Costs £29.95 plus £5 p&p, direct from manufacturer. They say easy to fit, effective etc. Any first hand experiences here? Read more
Dear all,
We are aware there are bugs in the new forum that have taken away various bits and pieces.
Things we are aware of are:
No edit button
No forum search
Absence of "New"
If there are any other things you notice please add to this thread so we can fix as a priority first thing in the morning.
Many thanks

The new posts are no longer in a different colour background either.
Taking Pat's point, can I add this to the wish-list:
1. use a second pastel shade in place of the current plain white background colour used for alternating posts.
2. new posts to have a (very) slightly darker shade of background colour.
Who nicked the Forum Search facility?
Who stole the 'red' 'new post' indicator? Read more
Yes this is missing - a bug that will be fixed for you in the morning. Many thanks.
Ok, we fought a long hard and vicious campaign on here for the rights to an edit button.
Now its gone.
WHo do we blame, Toyota? Bankers? Renault?

No it hasn't. Doh... !
Was looking at a cheap Cerato (2005, 32K, FSH, £1700) as a possible replacement for our second car in the event of it flunking its forthcoming MOT.
But ISTR that this car is based on the same platform as the Hyundai Elantra, which is also the base for the Coupe. I've seen numerous posts on here complaining of expensive brake disc replacements on these due to having to remove the wheel bearings to get to them, causing the job to take far longer than it really should.
Is this restricted to the Coupe itself, or is it all cars on this platform? Are there any other issues to watch out for on this model?
Thanks. Read more
Thanks. This car was a stop-gap by Kia between the earlier Shuma and the Cee'd, and was essentially a reskinned Elantra. I'll have to double check the Kia but if the Elantra is standard then I see no reason why the Cerato shouldn't be (I thought the Elantra must have been the expensive type but you've put my mind at rest on that one). The Coupe must have a special "performance" setup then, right?
Car itself looks OK -- gearshift is fine, car's immaculate and the interior, while it is the usual Korean tedium, looks well-made to me.
I thought the forum was read only on Thursday morning.

Yes, no....whatever.
Hi all
When I have sorted what HJ wants to do with the replication servers that we currently have I will get rid of the posting buttons so you guys can't post stuff that will get lost in the transfer.
There will then be a delay while we export and import data when you will be able to visit this site, but not post anything.
For your info the new site has not been developed by Khoosys but is hosted as a Windows server on one of our a virtual machines. We won't be managing the actual server either as we aren't Windows experts.
There should be only a few seconds downtime while we change IP addresses. So no need to run away!
As they say in the US "Enjoy".
It has been a privilege to have worked closely on this site for the last 10 or so years. This is a new chapter for you all.
Stephen

You'll certainly swear at fitting the pedal end and need an extra joint in your spine!
