Thats how I want mine to sound - manly but not OTT butch!!!!! I have just put on two BMW motorcycle horns and again they sound great until I wire them in so Im going to add a relay and try that route.

I went to Cornwall for the last one and the farmer kept on saying we had to book early as it would get packed on his farm (cashing in on the event) and as it turned out there were about 6 tents in his field. We saw the start of the eclipse then it went cloudy so we sat around a mini portable tv...

well been and got 5L of gearbox oil and some molyslip - damn thats stuffs expensive for what it is!!!!!!!!! Thought I'd get enough oil to change the gearbox oil completely - I have read you fill from the gearstick is that right?

well thanks for the advise - Im off out to get some molyslip and extra gearbox oil then its going in later - can't do any harm.

As a follow up question from my confused state yesterday: I notice this knocking noise that occurs at idle has been reported a few times but can't seem to find the exact cure on here? The noise isnt always there and goes away when revved anyway but most seem to point towards clutch area and if...

I spat my drink out over my keyboard. CLASS:bow

right will do - thanks for the advise. If there is a split is this pipe tape ok to use or best to just change the pipes ?

I know I should be on the stage at times lol. The whistle isnt loud and the vehicle pulls really well, no loss of power. It whistles constantly under load but as soon as you take the foot off the pedal it stops Ill check the pipes first your right - do I have to take the intercooler off to...

did you find out what caused the whistle as mine does exactly the same and its not my exhaust?

well after reading on here - the clunk goes away when I rev and I have only 87K on the engine so I imagine its not as bad as it seems? Also though can hear the turbo spooling - faint whistle so ios this a new turbo? If so I have seen one on ebay for 135 notes - is this good and is it a job I...

Well you may have seen my earlier post where the motor was whistling at about 2 and half K on the revs and was advised it may be the flexi pipe.The bad news is the exhaust is all fine according to my local exhaust centre - they reckon its my turbo. Also what is really worrying me - whilst the...

right I get it - Ill run a direct feed then via a relay as advised.

sorry if I seem dumb - but surely the existing horn runs off a relay which gives me my 12 volts output so if I installed an extra relay that was triggered via this output I wouldn't get any more "juice" to my horns (something sounds vaguely rude there):eek:

No dont get me wrong they sound fine when connected directly to the battery its when I connect them to the built in relay they sound poo - its obviously a wiring issue but ive tested the wiring and its stating its fine so Im at a loss?

I'll have a look if mine has two tomorrow as I have brought the red snail type off ebay and they sound pants as well? I had a Nissan Largo some years back and I was working on it when my neighbour sauntered over and asked what the extra big horm was infront of my rad. I had no idea but it...

Just bolt two blank firing AK47's one either side on each wing? now that would be fun.:clap

I imagined the standard horn relay would suffice?

Two???? I have only found one on the left of the rad - maybe |Im using the wrong wiring?

Well the stock horn sounded like a hamster being squeezed and getting annoyed after inhaling helium? So I purchased two 110 decibel shell type horns - cheap admittedly and wired them in and these sound like a few aphids getting merry on speed? The horns themselves if touched to the battery...

Id be happy just to have a horn - the stock one was awefull my so called twin upgrade kit works if I touch the battery terminals but wire it into the existing wiring and its pants.
