Removing bumper and cannot find mounting bolt to get bumper off. Have gone through the how to but cannot find it. Everything else has been done just need to do this to remove.

Hi guys

I fitted a set of 6000k HIDS today and they work fine with the engine off, but if I start the car they will switch on then after a few seconds they flicker and go off, then won't come back on until I turn the engine off then switch them off then back on again.

Help?

PS please no slating that I don't have projectors!

alot of the interior trim im thinking about is available from the website aliexpress, anyone bought of the site,

is the quality any good as it seems very cheap

stuff i want to buy is speaker surround, rear door release surround stuff like that

I have been a member of pistonheads on and off for many years

Thought I would go along to my first event on the 3rd April at Santa Pod (its free, unless you plan on doing some drag runs!)

Anyone else planning on going along ?

Few pictures of the J today with the new spoiler fitted

I have just fitted a tow bar wiring kit to my gtc 1.4
I took of the negative battery connection.
Added the wiring as per instructions now when i start the car i have no dials or lights on dash no sat nav nothing as if a fuse had blown but they are all in order. I undone the wiring but this has not cured the problem.
Could this be down to the battery being off or is it more drastic.
If it is the battery can i do a simple fix ie reset or is it a case of in to the dealership :(

Wondering if anyones had this before? 
2011 meriva B (1.3 cdti) CD400 with GID, 
always been getting the following code on the radio: U0074

[attachment=978]

The other 2 codes are for the IPC, as im still messing with it...

but i was getting that U0074 code when i only had an op-com for diagnosis, so it's not the clone tech2 giving a fake code, and i was getting it before i ever touched anything electrical in the car.

The Tech2 gives an option to do a can bus re-learn on most module

My trailer interface module won't program with the Tech2 due to my chassis number (A13DTE engine shouldnt have a towbar fitted it seems) 

When it reads the VIN as part of programming it refuses... even if i use the VIN thats stored in the TIM, that's from a 1.7 engined meriva, 

So i removed the GM-lan wire from the TIM, connected that to the tech2's obdii connector... pin 1 - gm-lan, pin 4 and 5 to earth, pin 16 to power, 

i can talk to the TIM with the tech2 like this, read DTC's, oper

Over the past couple of days I've noticed a horrible noise when turning my ignition off. It only lasts for a second our 2 but it's almost like a grinding noise.. sounds like it's coming from the drivers side of the engine bay but I could be wrong. Car is a 2.0 cdti.
