Mind sharing what actually happened? THanks!

Hey not at all...

Went to Korea for close to 6 weeks and my sister was 'supposed' to turn my car over so my battery was right for when i get back.. anywayz that was a fail and came back and the battery was flat. First time it had to get jump started for some reason the DVD would not turn on at all. Came back and had to get it jump started again.. DVD player still not workin! Sooo after gettin shut down from audio places near my place coz they wouldnt touch a OEM dvd player.. I opened my DVD face (which was hard to get open previously..was sitting very tight.. but i eventually got it) and pressed the restart button. Had to reconfigure my monitor to play when put on AUX coz it kept going straight to TV instead of my playlist for songs.. and eventually got it workin ;)

Was stressin out coz my DVD player was my last hope for playing music.. because my CD player thats integrated into the BOSE system stopped working about 6 days after i bought the car :(

Anywayz, its working.. for now *touch wood* :laugh:

Hi,

Your telling me that your playing mp3's off a DVD through the DVD Rom ?

The same DVD Rom that you use to do the JAP to English Conversion ?

I thought it was just for a map disc for the Jap Nav.

Yeah my playlist of songs from my DVD player comes up on my screen :)

Does yours operate differently?

sounds like he has an aftermarket DVD player in place of the standard DVD rom. There is no face on the DVD rom or reset button.

LOL... I was just kicking myself for thinking I could have used the original japan DVD drive for mp3... glad you pointed out that he was using an aftermarket unit

      Anybody affected by the M1 minefield this morning?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Just read this... Just a little bit of a wild one! Do you think the driver was testing out a new feature/device for how to lose the cops in a high speed chase?   I also suspect, if the box has a road sweeper that does magnetic metal pick up, he does a LOT of work in the machining industry. Which is what most of that looked like, machining chips from a mill or lathe. And I bet they're RAZOR sharp! And from an environmental perspective they really do need to actually collect all of those little pieces too. I wonder how many people still cop flat tires over the coming months on that road?   As for insurance company, yeah, it'd be interesting to hear what they say to the owner. But realistically, he's right, that "It's his fault". In the way that, it was his truck that spilled it, so they need to clean it up. However, neither he, nor his insurance company may bear the end cost if they do an investigation and find out it was caused by someone elses negligence (And they know who)...

      Yeah, no matter what bad things people can say about Julian from Autospeed, he at least was capable of thinking and his inclusion of a check/relief valve in the plumbing for the Audi boost controller, that I made a copy of and used for years**, completely eradicated that problem. **It's still lying on my workbench where I put it about, um, 18 years ago and have never found a home for it!

      New fix for low tyre pressure from bmw

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I didn't actually know this! I've seen photos of the H1, mainly outside shots, and they just look "different". I guess there'd be a few little changes like nicer rims, and probably the fact they have nicer looking paint with some depth and shine, which will make any vehicles body look different to the very flat colours of the defence force.   I've watched the guys on GHPC convert their Humvee to LS1, and they've done some really nice front shock upgrade. I'm waiting for the next video on it with the rear end done. I can't remember if they've already done it, or I dreamed it, but I believe they're also supercharging theres. They will be in the future doing proper long travel suspension too.   If you ditch out your big V8, as rubbish as it must be, send it to my place. I'll let the unreliable V8 motor and box be here. I just like V8s... So I'll find something to do with it... Even if that something is just taking up valuable space in the yard. I might have something Skyline I can send back in payment... Or even Ford Barra motors  (From memory you're in Canada yeah?) So you can then play with the legendary Aussie 4L version of an RB...  Except they don't have that distinctive random miss at idle like the RB25 does.

      Or you mean the age old problem of early 2000's manual boost tees, where they never let the pressure out of the line between the boost tee, and the waste gate, so after your first trip on boost, the damn wastegate liked to stay open and be laggy on gear change?

      Being behind an RB25DET, we know he won't have the small box for long at all...
