yeh i have the hks ssq, dual piston so nice and subtle at low boost and mad a loud on high boost

It is indeed a nice unit - as a slightly on topic aside can you see the pics on pg 1?

HAPPY ANGLER · Jan 31st, 2012, 20:35

I can see them perfectly ok

kes1907 · Feb 1st, 2012, 17:34

Hmmm how strange, I've tried viewing them on both my home and work computers and all I see are grey squares!?

I've looked at some of your other posts too and the pictures are missing from there as well.

I thought I was ok at IT but i'm stumped.

Can you right click and choose show picture?

Can you see other photobucket things?

kes1907 · Feb 1st, 2012, 17:58

Nope,

Show picture is greyed out; When I try and save the picture I still get a greyed square when downloaded?

Must be some filter blocking photobucket on my work server. I work through a secure NHS server so maybe thats whats causing the issue. I'll try from home later on

Thanks anyway

Ah Ha! Sorted, photobucket must be filtered at work. Can see all now

Great guide, cheers, cant wait for a day off now. These probs have been annoying me for ages and it looks like quite a simple fix.

Excellent news! I've never had anyone unable to view them before!! Good luck and yes, it is easy!

Even though I am now no longer a V40 owner (sob, went last week...still lurking here!) This guide is invaluable for many and the loom fix was a job I did 2 or 3 times over my V40 ownership.

the "check the loom" imo is something should be added to the yearly checks/service for us home muchanix

and nearly a "get the seller to lift the rad for you to have a look" when buying a new to you s/v40,,

if its rotten,, you can knock him down some,, "sucks teeth,, thats a dealer job,, £400 ,,sucks teeth",, then get it home and follow the guide
