Hi.
My Omega have a 2.0 8v engine (x20se). I am having performance loss and engine hesitation problems while accelerating. Sometimes while idling when i touch the gas pedal, little bit of popping sounds, then rpm goes up. Fuel consumption is kinda high. Idle is little bit wavy.... Read more
I have a Pioneer head unit which is apple-carplay compatible and it's great.
However, I would like to get something like an ultraguage to have a readout of engine coolant temps and other parameters not shown with precision (the temp guage goes to the middle and will sit there over a huge temperature span, too late when it goes to red) by the idiot style guages on the dash (Rover v8 joy). I don't want to stick something on the dash that is likely to result in a smashed window, nor do I want to carve up the dash to make the digital guage more integrated, like this person did even though it looks smart in my opinion. landroverforums.com/forum/discovery-ii-18/integrat.../...

You don't say what car you have, but my old MK4 Mondeo has Forscan that runs on a PC laptop That has loads of live data you could view. I never bothered as I didn't think it was safe. Ok for a passenger maybe.
Anyway it is possible just not necessarily with Apple screen

The Government should be entering into consultation with Honda about instead of closing it's Swindon factory down go into partnership producing electric vehicles and batteries. Read more
Hope all well
in a nutshell, bought a vehicle 30 months ago, paid for gap insurance and all going well
third party hits and totals my car, their insurance will happily settle and take full responsibility, My GAP are suggesting they will not settle balance of around £15k because I never informed them
that I had purchased a private number plate about 6 months after buying the vehicle
can they actually do this? It’s the same car, the garage have been aware they’ve serviced it etc Read more
What is the situation with the registration now?
Was it transferred to another car or onto a retention certificate before the car was written off? ...

So not only do i have to pay extra road tax (new price over 40k) but when my car got to 3 yeats old i was informed i would then have to pay to access Sat nav updates and remote access to the car via the app.
Come on VW up your act Read more
If it’s the same as the satnav on my Golf, which has a mind of its own when it comes to routing, it’s even more of a cheek.
I'd love to know how they believe they can make their money back any time soon, given how slow (even with fast chargers, which nowhere near all EVs can take advantage of) charging is compared to filling up with petrol or diesel (4x as much minimum), and the numbers of customers per day.
Note also that the cost of the elctricity is about 50-60% more than most domestic rates. I bet they'll also be a premium on buying things at those shops, just like you experience for most items sold at petrol stations and especially motorway service stations.
The difference is this station won't make its money back by selling drivers a Mars bar, and will have to flog A LOT of other stuff at inflated prices to pay back the money spent building it all and keeping it all ok.
They'd better hope that theres a lot of EV owners in the Braintree area or who pass by all the time. Odd location for it in my view - not near enough the M25 and even 10 miles away from Stansted airport and not on a major A road.
We'll see. Read more
Sureley not all EV users will need or want to 'recharge' at the same time. So a little planning and thought will be helfull or is the average Brit. to dum??
Thank you all for the answers guys. I am going to give you more deep details that i recently realised about my problem.
This symptoms happens more at cold engine, both LPG and gas. At normal operating temperature, much less feeling this problems, but still have. Also problem is lot more obvious at running with LPG....
