I cant even begin to think how she got there.

The house is like maybe 10-15m down the road from a roundabout. So syhe must have come off the roundabout got the back end out drift style and then swung it round and gone down his driveway.

The other option is that she jumped the curb on the round about, which is huge, and then careened across 2 front lawns before going through ure garage.

Classic old lady styles, she started fumbling for the pedals and maybe mashed the accelerator due to the bumpyness of the ride over the 20cm curb.

Im just trying to get my head around this madness :confused:

Erik - to answer your question - a write off is when the the cost to repair the car is MORE than the value or insured value of the car. An insurance assessor will determine whether it is a write off. I don't think your car is a write off... usually a write off is when the chassis is twisted or something.

Also the insurance repairer will repair your car to manufacturers standards. Because it is an import - this is quite hard. They will find it hard to gets parts... whichs takes time.... you may not end up with the same front bar on it or something. Insurance doesn't care if you have an awesome veilside kit on it (for example)... they will still only repair it to manufacturers standards.

Bug them ? How? I wish I could ,someone from Peter Wilkinson will tow my car tommorow hopefully I can drive my R34 again. One question if after the repair finish then I can see the colour different between the new parts and old parts , can i ask for all repaint?

    • Resizing injectors in Nistune can be done a couple of ways, and there are a couple of ways that you can make a mess of it. The tuner needs to be really aware of the effects of whichever approach he uses (either K, or TIM). They are both easy enough to "get the injector size right" to run the engine. But little details like old start enrichment and hot start are affected differently, depending on which boxes you check.
    • Pretty safe to say almost everyone that has tuned their own car has experienced this issue. The difference being that we have our laptop in the car and when it happens, it's literally 10 seconds of tuning to sort it.  Would you be happy to plug in your laptop and sort this yourself? It is a very simple process and there is no risk of harming your engine (if you are worried about that). 
    • Yeah thats the next step now, either they wil or i will take out for a drive to work and go straight their after work and see is we get the same issues 🤞  thought i try my luck here too, never know someone else might have had the same issue but thanks for the reply 
    • Basically your tuner needs to drive it for the 30 min (or whatever) to create the same conditions then check the ECU settings and sensors at that time. They may not be excited to because that takes them 30 min rather than just opening the bonnet and seeing the problem straight away.... Hot start is generally not as tricky as cold start, but there would be a table for fuel enrichment vs coolant temp as a starting point
    • Yeah, they all cant say anything for sure as everything is working fine . Said unable to find an issue untill it stops again. Could mist likely be CAS wiring or IAS valve issue but again not 100%
