i think this might be down to the main engine earth cable being at fault,there should be a heavey brown cable bolted from the shell to the sump on the n/s.i do belive its a common fault when this cable fails.

I just realised I have the original address for the original owner for the vehicle in question. But what on Earth do I say to him when I write a letter ? Is there a way of getting his phone number or email address ? And that is depending on the original owner having not moved house or flat ? its no...

The rack was a touch narrower so tracking did have to be adjusted, think that was down to having to remove the lock tabs. The e46 rack has no slots for the lock tabs, not sure how I feel a...
