The beep, is your Sat Nav recalculating, your Route as it thinks its trying to get you to a destination. I found this out the other day.

Sleep mode i've switched on too today, without realizing exactly how, one good thing is now though it doesn't switch back to the SAT NAV map every time I use the hands free phone. try looking at my diagnostic post today and reset your SAT Nav stuff...

Or download this app camDictionary if you have an iPhone and try and find the sleep mode setting in the menu, to get rid of the beep you need to clear the Sat Nav route.

I'm maybe going to try just pulling out the GPS sensor, as when I pulled the TV Unit out the boot, when I pres Aux/TV I now only get Aux channel not TV1/TV2 which is a bit cleaner/better as TV tuner is useless over here. I was thinking if you did the same with the GPS it may disable Sat Nav too...

OK In the old saying of 'Give a man a fish.... he'll feed himself for a day.... Teach a man to fish... ' To translate any menu, and have an iphone, download the app camDictionary. GO to the camera screen and Take a photo of any screen you want to transalte (easier at night), wait for it to focus and tap the camera icon, a pause will overlay the screen for a second. From here click and drag your finger over the text you want to translate, a little magnifier will pop up and a red line across the text you want to translate.

So using this app, i've added some screen shots of what to do to clear your auto screen off.

1. Press Settings

2. Select the menu item Image Quality - Screen Off

3. Select Screen Off

You will have now disabled the automatic screen off and it will switch back to lovely pictures of Japanese Maps... or Stay on the radio or display screen.

I did the same thing on the weekend and only figured this out, over lunch today playing with my new app.

Makes things so much easier when you can just point and read the damn menus on your phone, without having to dig up the damn manuals all the time...

      Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC IAT is measured under the blower hat I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c

      Hey Mark...sorry to interrupt your career change to hair dressing... but...did you ever fit the interchiller to the commodore, and if so how was it? And, who made it?

      I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......

      I get into huffs with people when I suggest the MX5 looks so much better as a coupe than it does as convertible. Pretty sure I don't prefer the convertible version of anything. Good job on the hardtop! The next buyer will appreciate.

      IMO wrap does have its uses, but like you said, quality wrap, and professional installation, would probably cost want a quality paint job does, but, the paint, if maintained, is basically for life, and much easier to touch up if required  In other news: it's pissing down here, with thunder, lightning and only some small hail "at this stage", luckily all "my" cars are undercover  I've also been contacted by a guy in Newcastle about the SS, he said he will come down next weekend for a look, we'll see how that transpires I guess 🫰
