Thought I would start this thread up as I am becoming increasingly annoyed with how people shop around forums.

It happens pretty much everywhere and its bad enough it happens just putting anything for sale on gumtree.

I think it would just make it a bit nicer for sellers and buyers if this thread exists, so people read it and change how they shop a bit.

Feel Free to add your frustrations.

EXAMPLES OF JERKS/TYREKICKERS

BUYER

1. If you actually want to buy something, only PM/MESSAGE/PHONE someone if you're 100% commited on purchasing a part.

(unless its a question). I am sick to death of people saying "yeh no worries I will come and collect Tuesday night" and you never hear from them again.

2. If you tell a seller you are going to be at their house at such a time.. BE ON TIME! Why should they waste their afternoon/morning?

3. If someone is selling something at an already cheap price, dont lowball the f**k out of them just because YOU dont have any money.

4. If you tell a seller you're going to show up at such a time and you are unable to make it, at least advise the seller. Dont just message them 3 days later.

5. READ. Make sure before you PM someone your question, it has not already been answered within the thread.

SELLERS

1. Post a sentence that makes sense, thats not in caps and use comma's and full stops.

2. Post prices

3. Dont post a price of $100, receive lots of interest and decide to put it up. Low act.

thats as much as I can think of atm.

Its pretty simple stuff really.

Whats wrong with looking at something first, I like to see, touch feel something before I buy.. Looking and then making a choice whether or not to buy is not time wasting.

Agree on I hate having dream boats agree there going to come over then dont show. That's why you never give out your address until there leaving there house to come see you. I find that helps with the shit kickers.

      One Headlight isn't working - Driver Side Fuse Keeps blowing

      Yeah, but knowledge of one wire's insulation worn through to short on earth implies the possibility of other wires doing the same. I had my power steering die, because the wire that runs to the solenoid valve on the rack runs in the same loom as the power wire for the O2 sensor. And when the O2 sensor/wire did something stupid and burnt part of that loom to death, the only indication was the shit(ter) fuel economy and the heavy steering. It took deep excavation of the looms in the bay to find the problem. Not wear through in that case, but similar shit.

      Ah, I thought he'd wired it to one of the spare ECU inputs! Too long ago since I read that post, ha ha. I've been arguing with radiators, harmonic balancers, alternators and rust since reading it.

      Correct. The ECU cannot read oil temp. (Well, I think it probably can in some situations. I did have the thought of potentially repinning the ECU when I was doing oil pressure). I am using this into the MPVI dongle, so that the MPVI dongle can read oil temperature. It is attached to a VDO gauge which is obviously calibrated to whatever curve the sender actually is using. This would be easy if I could setup a table of voltage to temperature like many sensors, but it appears I cannot do this and can only setup the transform rule which appears to be Input (voltage) x Multiplier, and add an offset. This to me means it MUST be linear. So it may be a complete waste of time wiring this into the ECU. The idea was that the MPVI3 has standalone logging. I wanted to use this instead of a laptop with serial cable (for wideband) for long datalogs. Given the wideband also has electric interference, I may never trust this either in a world where the serial wideband and the analog output wideband do not agree. Last time I did a trace I could see the two wideband traces follow each other, but one was a little leaner than the other. I plan on playing with voltage offsets and actually driving the thing to see how close they correlate. If they never correlate... then, well, maybe I'll never use either. Ideally I'd like to have the Analog wideband read ever so slightly leaner than the serial one, because the serial one is 'correct'. Tuning the car to be ever so slightly too-rich would be the aim. Not needing to have a laptop flying around in the footwell connected with cables is... an advantage. About the only one from the forced upgrade to MPVI3.

      Hopefully not, since he knows the fuses work ha ha ha

      I don't think he's got it on a gauge and on the ECU. I think he's got it on the gauge and on the HPTuners DAq thingo. Remember, we're talking about oil temp here, not something that the ECU is actually interested in for its own sake.
