Hello all

I have a "tricky" question regarding the new Sirion 2007 1.3 automatic.
When I insert the key into the switch with my door open or when I put into reverse gear, I hear those annoying beep sounds...Is there any way of disable those sounds without disconnecting the small speaker?
I know that in some cars it is possible to get a certain access to the cars computer if I press a certain sequence on the "Mile reset knob" is it possible in this car? if so, how can I disable those annoying beeps?

Hi fellow daihatsu owners. I have recently bought meself a F10 Daihatsu 4x4 (1977) its motor will need replacing soon. No-one in my country Australia has a motor for me hence my quiry: does anyone know what other motors would be compatible for my car or has anyone converted an F10. Was also wondering if anyone knows where i can get a workshop/service manual for my car. I am a complete beginner at this and hoping someone can help.

Hi
I have just acquired a New YRV Turbo in South Africa. From what i can make out same/similar spec as the UK one.

Is there anyone who can give me some sensible ideas on modifications. It is a very rare car here and not many people know about it.

I am a little dubious over the strength of the autoshift so nothing too OTT. We also run on crap 95 unleaded fuel which I have to factor in.

My 1990 Domino 850cc has always run a trifle on the rich side and since I cannot obtain any sort of workshop manual, I have left well alone. The other day I checked the condition of the air filter element and was somewhat horrified to find that the filter had been shedding what looked like fine glass or ceramic fibres, which were being gobbled up by the carb and were stuck all around the intake orifice. Air filters are rarely cheap, so rather than changing it for yet another useless obstruction in the airflow, I converted to nylon stocking filters, which had worked so well on a variety of cars in the past. First obtain your stockings or tights ( could be fun ). Cut a generous unladdered section ( double thickness ) and stretch over and securely ( very secure with no risk of being sucked in )attach to the end of the air intake hose with a plastic strap. Do the same for the other intake hose which is only in use on the "winter" position ( you can chuck the old winter flexible if you wish). Make sure the ends of these inlet hoses are not obstructed and that any bends are as gentle as possible. Remove and discard the airfilter element but retain the air filter box assembly because this acts as an effective "cold box". Screw the lid back on ensuring that seals are good and the arrows on the lid and body line up.

Have put some pics in the Image Galleries under Mods if you are wondering what this tyre size looks like on the slim 5j rim.
