HI.

CAN FIXED WING MIRRORS BE CHANGED TO CLOSE IN PLEASE... Read more

antininus

I presume you mean door mirrors, its a whlie since any cars have had wing mirrors and the answer is yes just about anything is possible at a price.

You`ll need at least the new mirrors and their motors, door switches and wiring if not already in the doors....

I have a 1.6 diesel 57 model. About 3 months ago whenever I went around a corner or round a roundabout and vehicle was off the level the oil warning light would come on but immediately stop when vehicle was back on the level. I took this to local garage who said that there was plenty of oil and not to worry.

A couple of weeks later turbo went and I had a £1200 bill. ... Read more

fuel starvation would cause running problem, oil warning light is related to oil pressure - lack of oil is the commom problem - (french diesel engines are quiet leaky) if the levels fine- i would have the sensor tested if thats good then the oil pump is prolly shot causing no oil feed to the turbo and the rest of the engine - this may get expensive if not sorted quickly- best of luck

My Laguna comes up with Injection fault everytime the fuel gauge reaches the top of the red section of the fuel gauge when the fuel is getting low. When the fuel is above this the car goes great without any problems which leads me to think that there is nothing wrong with the injectors and that there must be some other fault causing this. I have tried a new Fuel Pressure Regulator and fuel filter to no avail. I am left wondering if maybe its the petrol gauge thats faulty. Has anyone had the same problem or can anyone suggest anything for this... Cheers Read more

Looking to buy auto version but different garages have seemingly differing descriptions of the automatic gearbox. Also note that some models have a chrome surround to gear shift, others a leather boot.

Why? Read more

On the lower dash there is a small display about an inch square that reads

"ion"

With a light at top which reads "clean"

And another currently unlit light that simply reads "ion"

What is this for and how does one do the clean???

There's no owners handbook (Japanese import)

Due to a mishap and without comprehensive insurance I have rebuilt my Kawasaki ZX12R Model A1.
It's now running beautifully BUT the battery is not charging. It holds a charge and will jump start.
A lot of the parts I bought were 2nd hand, but I could not get a generator for this model so fitted a generator, alternator and alternator cover form a later model - Model B. The bike has the original crankshaft and standard voltage rectifier. If anyone knows of anything fairly inexpensive that I can do to get this modification to work I would be eternally grateful please. Many thanks, Max Lacey Read more

PS I know the alternator is OK, but how do I test the generator Read more

Had a similar problem with my CBR600, it was the voltage regulator. hopefully not too expensive.
