Update on this... it pulls slightly left when I let go of the steering wheel, but the wheel is central at that point. When the steering wheel is centre (and car pull left) the notches are aligned. When the car is steered straight, the plastic notch is about 5mm more clockwise than the notch on box.
Not adjusted anything yet as don’t want to make it worse!!
Does the adjustment have to happen on the ground? I have access to a 2 post lift.
Thanks, so not really a collector's item then?
Hi, i've noticed a few Bordeaux models coming up on Autotrader recently. Is there anything particularly special about these other than the liberal use of the red palette?
Thanks
Thanks, I’ll get a top up of plus gas and plan to sort this during lockdown 2.0...
That abs fault went away!!
Thanks, guessing I need some alignment tools to do this??
Hi all, got an issue I’m struggling to diagnose and would appreciate your thoughts.
Since I bought the P38 it’s steering wheel has to be held about 10 degrees/1 o’clock to drive in a straight line. If I let go, it centres and therefore pulls slightly to the left.
I’ve put up with it for a couple of years, blaming bad (massive) tyres, bad bushes, ball joints, poor height calibration etc. Ive fixed all of these.
I’ve just taken it to have the tracking/alignment done, figuring it must be that. However they said it was not out of line...
So now I’m stumped. The only bushes didn’t do were the rear radius arms but they looked new.
Any ideas? It’s not a problem but I’m a bit of a perfectionist!!
Thanks

Original from $mazon...
Thanks both.
Guess that’s one to try!!! Thanks. Odd issue though....
Keep getting an abs/traction fault message and lights on dash. Plug in nanocom and it reports no faults with abs...
The only thing that shows faults is either Passenger seat or occasionally a RHF height sensor...
Any ideas...

I have a Connects2 harness that is supposed to do the universal audio deed for the Alpine head unit which I shall never use which really should go someone who will.
Far as I can see its supposed to piggy back everything onto the CD input. I'll need to dig out the instructions to find out exactly what it does. If I'm going to mess with audio I shall put a tablet in or at least a modern radio.

Are you looking to sell it Clive?
Thanks as ever!
Standard head unit (non nav) with HK sound. Is an Aux in of any kind possible? Tape deck dead, CD deck dead and getting fed up of covid on the radio!!!
Thanks
After later design front and rear bumpers body coloured in oxford blue, without cracks/dents/scratches.
Also, a set of hens teeth if you have them too...
There's talk about water getting in through the pollen filter housing. Mine is wet like yours after a week in the rain (I normally garage) so will have to investigate as well.
First car with cruise I’ve had that didn’t then!!!
At least it works, made light work of a motorway run yesterday.
Finally got round to sorting the perishes vacuum hose and reconnected the actuator. Cruise works a treat!!!
Should there be a lamp in the instrument panel when it’s active? I know there’s one on the button on the dash but nothing to indicate it’s latched.
TIA
They were very close to island 4x4 prices last time I enquired too...

Well that was a crap day.
No power at the obd port so had fun trying to trace the problem. There's no power between the engine bay fuse box and connector in the right hand footwell. Bollocks:(Done a modification that draws permanent live from the radio constant live and Fed that to the DLC.
All working now and got a forced calibration initiated.
Didn't help. The blend flap is sticking by the looks of it and logging errors in the ecu. Bugger.
I think k I need to delve in there again. Boohoo:(
I had same problem, it was a broken wire in driver's kick panel multi plug (brown IIRC). Previous owner had done same as you, drawing a live off radio. but they'd just twisted a wire on and not even taped it up!!!
