Hey all, my daihatsu copen 2003, has 17" wheels on it, and when driving is scrubbing the arches. Think the manufacturers specs are 15". I know i might need to get the right fit, just wondering if anyone knows a safe way to keep the 17's whilst not damaging the car, ive heard of roling the fenders but dont want it to do damage. Thanks
You need to go to a body shop who does guard rolling and get it done properly as the 17's will look better than 15's, they can do it with out damageing the paintwork

If it has a plugged injector, yes. If it is a bad plug or plug wire, then no. If it is a machanical problem, no. While the engine is running carefully ( you may get a shock if not careful) disconnect one plug wire at a time. You might find out which cylinder is not working. Hooking up a scanner is a better option and can locate the problem without pain, except in the wallet.
unless there is something unusual about it... the filter unscrews and you install a new one. you should put a drop of oil on your finger and rub it around the filter gasket before you screw it back on the motor. often you will need an oil filter wrench, abit of a misnomer as it is basically a band that goes around the oil filter with a handle. the newer style is a large socket piece that fits over the end of the oil filter and you turn with a rachet.
ok so looks like this one has been solved by the dealer.
I had it towed to them, and they said the battery had to be replaced (only had 8vlt in it)
and something to do with the cell inside the battery had failled. No surprise here - its the same battery which came with the car - 5 years or so ago.
They are still working on it, so wont know if its anything else. Battery's in Australia arent cheap
for this car - 125 dollars, and neither are most parts. But then i use the car for business, and drive everywhere. The car was used everyday, but i suspect it went flat, as most copen owners would know, seems to go flat if you dont use the car for some period of time, like 1 week or so,'
