Re: Robsey's Thread of Random Ramblings.

What's negative about it? I'm guessing the negative crap came from 15 year olds who don't know anything that was made before last week.

Re: Robsey's Thread of Random Ramblings.

I really like that instrument cluster, definitely has that 80's electronic feel to it like an old AKAI tape deck amplifier. Feels like it would be perfect in a DMC-12 or something. I could definitely have one of those in my room all wired up to a battery and just have all the lights on display, it's...

Welcome to the forum, you've made a good choice. I've had 3 and I never regret owning them. Good simple reliable cars.

Re: Tall people problems

I'm really surprised that an Expression model doesn't have a height adjustment driver's seat. Strange to think that.

Re: Tall people problems

I think it would, yes. Although I've never sat in a non-height adjustable seat, so can't say for sure.

Re: Tall people problems

Hey. I agree with Matt, I didn't know Expression models didn't have height adjustable seats, that's strange, it's only a basic crank mechanism, I thought all models had it. Anyway, if you can find a donor car with the same or similar interior colour that has adjustable seats, you can always get repl...

That's a nice option, It's the board style setting, BBoots or Cavmk3oc in the User Control Panel.

Re: Cavalier x20xev air intake pipes

Not sure about those engines but it could possibly be a vacuum hose which goes to the throttle body area maybe? Is it a very thin plastic pipe?

Thanks James, I appreciate it. I think it was others discussing cake and biscuits though, you must have got confused there lol. I was usually getting drunk and wondering which stickers and decals I wanted to stick onto my Cavalier the next day.

Re: Just a general thanks to everyone here.

Thanks Matt, I appreciate your message.

You're right Robsey, I can't stand anything that sounds and smokes like a tractor unless it actually is a tractor. Diesels belong in agricultural or heavy goods vehicles, not in ordinary cars.

Just a general thanks to everyone here.

Hey all. I've been here for a while now as some of you will know. I just wanted to say that it's been good here, I've learned so much from you guys. I probably learned more from advice from here than anywhere when it came to carrying out work on my old Cavaliers. And as a community in general, what ...

Looks proper clean, good work.
Quick tip... Next time don't take the photos with a Ford Ciesta in the background, it ruins the photo.

Re: AF22 auto box Cav 1995 2.5 V6 - flashing S and wont sta

I assume by adjust, you mean just turn it, not sure why it would go out of alignment by itself, they shouldn't really do that. Anyway to find the P and 1 positions, have someone move the gear lever up and down, and look at the position of the selector switch. Unwind the nuts that secure it to the ge...

Probably just a safety feature, as iangsi said, See if you can find a blown fuse somewhere. Also swap out the current battery for another battery to see if that works.
