Terrible news. Condolences to his family and friends.

I’ve used one of these for years to keep an eye on pressures and keep an old school foot pump in the car to top up pressures or in case of a slow puncture. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/363972799563?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=9guIMk1tS_q&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=hA-aV6CMQ16&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

This is what I chose a year or so ago when needing to replace old rubber. I got a good deal at the time and they have been fine but I only do limited miles and I’ve not had PS4s so can’t compare. The N0 rating can be useful at resale perhaps if that’s likely to be a factor.

Cheers, will give those a try. Look to be exactly the right size too.

So the glue on my rear view mirror gave up, it’s probably the original fixing and the good weather / heat recently may have been a factor. Does anyone have any tips on how to remove the metal disc as it seems solidly fixed in to the rest of the mirror assembly? I’ve not had any luck trying to glue back on in one piece given the weight of the mirror. Also any other recommendations including what glue to use would welcome. Tried and failed with a Versachem kit ordered from Amazon. Cheers.

Agree Haith, for the price I’ll stick with the Porsche part 👍
-
Thanks Matthew will order from you along with a few other bits soon.

Looks lovely - congratulations!

Thanks Haith / Nige / Ivan. Bit if a difference in opinion here from no problem to a PITA! I was going to buy this but saw that the size differs from what I currently have although with the same Porsche part number https://type911shop.co.uk/epages/de867ca1-377e-432e-84fd-bdccf2206766.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/de867ca1-377e-432e-84fd-bdccf2206766/Products/5009

I was about to buy a replacement belt as mine hasn't been changed in the seven years I've had the car and starting to squeal. II could just adjust but think it's a good idea to replace. I'm a bit confused by the size as most places advertise 10 x 710. Checking my current belt it's marked as Porsche 999.192.176.50 9.5X710 FA 3G GOODYEAR. There is a thread on Pelican but not very clear, I'm guessing that the 9.5 has now been replaced maybe with the 10. Can anyone confirm the 10 will fit with no problem on a 85 3.2? Cheers. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsche-911-technical-forum/282935-9-5-vs-10-mm-fan-belt-3.html

Yep thanks Chris 👍

So check the basics first is the lesson! I had assumed that they had topped up the fluid correctly after the work but looks like not fully topped up as not at the top line 🙁 These things happen and an easy fix! .
-
Thanks I think that would be the warning light top right from the wear sensors and the pads haven't been touched.
-
Thanks all for the quick replies. I did search and try the reset with battery off and ignition on etc but may have not done it correctly and now see the references to this being SC only. I’ll check the float and level Chris although they did say bad topped up after bleeding. Nige, your suggestion may the way I go if all else fails!

I recently had a MOT failure due to steering gaiters needing replacement and a brake hose (replacements ordered from Matt and delivered quickly as usual)! After the work at my local garage and MOT pass the brake warning light top left in the panel with the seatbelt warning marked (! (P)) stays on and wondering what could have caused this and how to fix as I need to give my local garage some pointers. During the work the brakes were bled and fluid topped up. Have checked the connectors on the brake fluid chamber lid and seem ok. Any help would be appreciated. Cheers.
