Hi guys,

I have a power kite for sale. 3.5m flexifoil rage. Excellent condition. Had it a few years and hardly use it anymore. Awesome fun though for those days on holiday when the weather does...

Just came across this my 2014 tuna has the same problem. One would think they would have addressed it by now. Will take it up with them at the next service.

Hi Pod, we did this over new year. Slept at Sani Top back packers. Next day went through to Katse. Did the dam tour the next day and then went through to golden gate and stayed there before returning...

Andre, thanks for the Led tip. The lighting inside the car was always lacking. I promptly went out and replaced the rear and back with led bulbs.

However the colour difference between the front...

I bought a 2014 Fortuner and the head unit was replaced with a Kenwood system. The seller gave me the original. Where can I find the specs/features on the unit?

I prefer one solid cover. So if that helps with retaining heat together with other benefits evaporation, catching leaves etc then that is probably the one to go for.

I heard they heavy though?...

I have a solar pool heater installed (without a blanket) at the moment.

My pool net is needing replacement and I am wondering what is the best option. We have small kids so pool security is a...

Last night was reasonably warm 18c outside temp.

Yes I understand it will drop more if the temp difference is higher. But I read somewhere the standard is 10c in 24hrs. I had 20c in 8 hrs. The...

Last night was the first time I hated the water back to 65c. The drop in 8 hrs was 20c back to 45c. One way valve made a difference at lower temp but not at high temperatures.

Did you find the...

I isolated the panel last night and also only saw a 2c drop overnight instead of the usual 12 to 15. Fitted the one way valve a few min ago. Hoping for the best

I bought mine today and was advised to put it between the pump and collector. Where is yours placed Musashi?

I'm wondering if u can't put mine straight after the pump?

I'm really surprised by your heat loss reduction. I can confirm that mine must be doing the same. Tonight I checked the temp of the tank 34c and the collector 26c, switched on the element and left it...

Musashi, Have you found any improvement in your performance during the day as well?

I had issues that my general performance (since installation) even during the day has been less than...

I just bought a 2014 model with 34k km on the clock. Basically new. I must admit the auto is not as nice as in some other vehicles but one can live with it easily.

If the fortuner is nearly as...

Was looking to trade mine in not to long ago. R135 000 for 2008 2.5 with 132k km.

Does anyone have literature of what performance to expect from such a system or retrofit system? I know there are lots of variables but I went ahead based on some of the posts in this and other...

I just installed solar (retrofit) and my temp drop about 10c over night. The installers said about 1c per hour is normal.

I have a cleaning lady but the dishwasher and washing machine only uses cold water. So she does not use hot water. If she does it is minimal.

I'm looking at the temp on the geyserwise max...

Thanks, will take it up with the installers. We had a 30c day today with no cloud and it only reached 54c.

The 200l geyser has a 18 vacuum tube panel collector to it via 12v pump system. It is set to circulate once it reaches a 7c difference between collector and geyser via geyser max control....

I have a 200l retrofit geyser feeding into a smaller 150l geyser fitted recently. Should know the savings soon.

Just one question on a hot 30c day how much should a 200l geyser temp rise? I have a...

Hi guys,

Just wanted to find out the general feeling about VW service cost. I buy most of my cars out of warranty and pay for services out of pocket.

Two things that I noticed on a relative...

Mine was installed Friday. Solarsynergy in PMB. Tubes retrofit.

They not completely done with installation yet. The temp sensor on the panel is not connected to the correct place so it under...

Thanks,

I might be flogging the car soon and not sure if the expense of painting it might make a big difference to the sale price.

If I just wanted to remove it without damaging the bits...

Hi Guys,

I have a tiguan that I bought a while ago and the clear coat on the rims are starting to bubble in some places. What is the best way to get these rims presentable again?

Remove the...

As a matter of interest does the AEE fit into a Gopro quick release mount?

I know it has been mentioned that it fits into the normal mounts with a bit of adjusting.

I saw this thread a while ago and started taking my Triton to Haydn for general servicing. Not to long ago I started having overheating issues.

At first it puzzled Haydn, but he did the right...

Thanks for the replies. I have a lot of googling to do, assuming I can find the places mentioned above.

We have 4x4's, not that geared towards camping but can do camping or accommodation. Trying...

Hi Guys,

Need some advice/suggestions. We would like to organise a "manne" trip to get away from the office and family for a short while. The purpose is to adventure into africa (or as much as...

I have a 2009 Tiguan with a RCD 310 head unit. The steering wheel buttons on the left : volume up/down, Star button that mutes the radio and then a phone button. The phone button does noting at the...

I just read through this whole thread hoping for an unbiased factual answer to the OP.
Seems there is no reliable figures that tell the complete story in the public domain. Wish I could get the...

Yes that's true however never had any problems with any of my previous 14 2nd hand vehicles, well at least nothing of this magnitude.

Haydn here on the forum is fixing the triton for me and he...

My Triton which I had for under a year and with only 127K Km on kept on overheating. Prognosis head gasket.

This the second Mitsubishi with a similar problem. First the notorious 2.8 that cracked...
