Re: New Gearbox!

Thanks for that, but i managed to get one delivered with a 90 day warranty for £140 - bargain. Got loads of quotes ranging from £400 to a rather dodgy sounding £100. Anyway, im gonna get the new box fitted and i will be selling the mx shortly as i want a new car that is a bit cheaper on petrol. Chee...

Re: Which Oil?

Thanks for your help guys!.... I have had the oil and filter changed now and the V6 is now happy again. I decided to ignore all the advice you had to give me and used olive oil. But dont worry, im sure it will be fine as i ensured it was extra virgin olive oil, made from the finest olives! I also re...

Which Oil?

I have a standard V6 with 97000 miles and its time for an oil change. Which brand of oil would be best to use? It isnt using much oil or anything, but its about time it has some lovely fresh oil to keep it happy :)

Re: Cold air intake question

I fitted an MX-6 PiperX induction kit to my mx-3 V6, that my friend had fitted to his mx6 previously.

It had to be modified slightly to fit, but works fine and is loads better than than the stock airbox.

Re: Poor Fuel Consumption

It cost about £30 (GB) for 40 litres thats... $54 US $73 Canada Now you can see why it hurts so much!... Good news is though i got 25.29mpg this week, thats 2 up on last week. The only difference is that i have now fitted a piper cross induction kit, and have been driving around much quicker!... i e...

Re: Poor Fuel Consumption

That was the whole point of me starting the thread.... I havent been driving fast! If i had been driving hard and fast i would not be bothered about getting only 23mpg. I have been driving really carefully so i would expect much better fuel consumption than the 23mpg that i am currently getting. I a...

Re: Poor Fuel Consumption

Thanks, i will check the things you mentioned. I worked the mpg out to be about 23mpg (£32.00) I love the car, so im just hoping that i sort the fuel prob out or it will have to go! I have read elsewhere on the forum about resetting the ECU, by disconnecting the power for 30secs. do you think that t...
