#16: Re: The Blue Bandit (206cc) Author: Cabrioman, Location: Neath - South WalesPosted: Mon Jun 24, 2013 7:41 am ---- Drivers window was arguing with me every time i tried to raise it. Took the switches apart, Cleaned with WD40 and now working again.
Also found why my my bonnet doesn't sit right.
Check the height difference compared to the nearside.
Also, Have very loud ticking noise. I've changed the oil etc and and checked tappets but it seems to be coming from the injectors.
Do you think it's loud or is it me?
(Please excuse the angle. Iphone decided to have a mind of it's own)
#17: Re: The Blue Bandit (206cc) Author: Cabrioman, Location: Neath - South WalesPosted: Tue Jul 02, 2013 8:31 am ---- Small update.
Got some lexus lights coming for the rear. I know they're a bit marmite but i like them and will match the clear 3rd brake light and fog lamp.
Also fixed my drivers seat, after buying another one. It just started working. So now i have a spare seat sitting in the shed.
Sun visor on the drivers side had a broken mirror in it. So i swapped it for an intact one.
And i have cleaned all the interior and carpets with a carpet cleaner so all looking nice and fresh (i hope)
Few more jobs to do before Pugfest, but hopefully i'll have them all done.

What do you think?

Found a replacement comms for a 206cc for a good price.
Received the parcel today and they've sent me a hatchback one.

#24: Re: The Blue Bandit (206cc) Author: Cabrioman, Location: Neath - South WalesPosted: Mon Jul 08, 2013 7:26 am ---- Replaced the comms unit so I now have all the functions again.
So I now have a hatchback one for sale but I've only got 33 posts so. Once I reached 50 I'll advertise it.
#25: Re: The Blue Bandit (206cc) Author: Cabrioman, Location: Neath - South WalesPosted: Tue Jul 09, 2013 10:42 am ---- The button to flick between mpg etc was very temprimental. So I took the end of the stalk apart and found the contacts were dirty and the button wasn't pushing the pin down enough. So I cut the end of a plastic cotton bud off, stuck it on the end of the button and trimmed it to the correct length. Hey presto it all works again
Putting the stalk back together was a bit fiddly but got there in the end.
#26: Re: The Blue Bandit (206cc) Author: Cabrioman, Location: Neath - South WalesPosted: Tue Jul 09, 2013 12:17 pm ---- Received my tail lights from Iainlovatt.
Side covers needed trimming to fit the CC but already cut down so will fit them fully tomorrow.

Why not send it back since they sent you the wrong goods?
#28: Re: The Blue Bandit (206cc) Author: Lecktorious, Location: ScotlandPosted: Tue Jul 09, 2013 1:55 pm ---- Some nice subtle improvements and mods there. Not a fan of the lexus lights, but each to their own.
I expect to see the roof down at Pugfest 29 degrees on Saturday, 27 on Sunday!

I would, but the one I have for sale is the original hatchback one. I took it out and fitted the new one I got sent because even though its wrong, it still has the buttons for my trip computer.

Most defiantly
Might not be down for the journey with the camping gear in the back but once its unloaded the roof will be staying down
I'm gonna try and load it with the roof able to be lowered but it takes up a lot of space in the boot.
