General FAQ

[Don1]

Is it worth putting in here the general accepted revs Vs Oil temperature?

You know, 2.5k/rpm <50c...

Since this thread is stickied a FAQ I don't feel too bad about resurrecting it.

For reference, anyone needing to change the indicator bulb on the Sagaris (and I presume other T-cars too), the bulb is an offset bayonet and is an amber coloured bulb. Its a "PY21W-581".

Another snippet:

The front towing eye on the Sagaris is welded to the chassis rail under the car and is offset slightly to one side.
All RAC flatbeds carry a special strap consisting of a snap-clip, a short length of strap, and a D-ring so that they can access it.

What an excellent thread.

Has anyone any experience of the Fuel Sensor error. I had that appear yesterday. I am fairly certain I have read about that issue frequently on here.

I have been and refulled to check that the readings were correct (which they were) so I am guessing it was a blip.

Yes, I think most of us have had that - especially when the tank gets to about 1/4 full. Its due to the fuel sloshing around in the tank. The more annoying feature of the sensor though is that it doesnt give accurate readings when the tank is low either. The most I have ever been able to fill the tank up by is 45ltrs - and that was when the gauge showed 2 litres left..! :O)

Which error is that? I used to fairly regularly get an error on starting the car and then slightly random readings for a few miles, but after some investigation during a big service now have completely random readings and error codes 11 and 19 showing on startup. Completely brimmed the tank an hour ago and it showed 0, then finally crept up to 27L where it remained for about 30 miles.

I'll take a look at the service schedule tomorrow, but pretty sure it had a new sender in the tank fitted which doesn't seem to have done the trick..

Can you fit parking sensors?

Yes, use more modern electromagnetic ones rather than ultrasonic ones. Electromagnetic ones do not
require any body work and can be fitted out of sight using a simple aerial feed which can be stuck
to the existing undertray or behind the license plate.
