I had a similar sounding problem, randomly stopping during a run. Eventually tracked down to a faulty rotor shorting out.

Bucking the trend, I use a Squeezebox not Sonos and it's excellent. Squeezeserver on the PC, all tracks ripped to FLAC and multiroom to the radio in the kitchen, my office and the lounge. The lounge system goes via the AV amp all hidden away in the cabinet and controlled via a single remote (Harmony...

Well it's not a battery/power issue.
Managed to get some time to try jumping it off the modern. Still the same.
I guess I'm getting underneath and trying the starter next.

Got rid of the baby and the woman this weekend as well and was going to head over to Goodwood.

Not looking likely now.

Damn.

Checked the the fuses and they are fine. All other electrical systems are fine. One thing that is happening is that I don't see a dimming of the lights when I turn to the starting position. I'll try out Chris suggestion tomorrow when I get the chance to get her out of the garage and I can see what I...

No, not even getting to the turning over stage. It has an immobiliser so that may be relevant I suppose but if I don't 'mobilise' the car I don't even get the ticking. The RAC did actually fix a problem I had on my previous car. It would just cut out for no obvious reason. Then sometime restart and ...

I was going to say no but then when I went and had a look there is a square silver box on the left of the engine bay that has the fuel pipes running through it. There is a very clear label with flow written going left to right. There are 2 wires attached one is ground loop and the other is connected...

Electrical/Starting problems.

Went to take her out today and she wouldn't go. When I get in the car I turn the key and in the position before starting I get a very rapid "ticker ticker ticker" noise which slowly dies over time. If I turn it further to start it's just silence, the ticking stops but the starter doesn't t...

I'd be up for that.

I'm no technical expert but the beer sounds good!

We did have a bit of a local group up and running a few years back when I had my 1st 912.

The xbox appears cheaper but it's not once you get the wireless adapter (£50 please) and don't forget duracells or rechargables for the controller (£15 please) and then of course Live Gold to play online (£40pa please). Most game come out on both platforms, it's only th eodd exclusive that doesn't s...

I have a previous version of the Porsche one.

I like the BMX, Skulls and Golf but wouldn't buy them with the big we are level logos.

Loose those bits or scale them down and I would be interested.
