There were two reasons why I started this post (and nothing personal to the person/s invoved
) :-
1) I have a sort of wish list in things I would like to do (and done) and have asked questions etc to gain an understanding on things such as ch/lh lights, RNS-E Aux, xenons, illumination pack to name a few (and hopefully more) and use this site and intend to use it in the future as a reference point and I thought it a little unfair for this information to be lost or removed (which includes postings I've made). Some of the information I would like to use when I actually come to do the mods has been and could be lost in the future if the OP deletes for whatever reason and also if I ever decide to undo these mods (or they develop faults) it would be nice to look back to also know how to fix.
2) There are allot of people (including me) that have asked the same questions and the information is valuable to everyone. It is how the forum is created and what the forum is built on (the community as is described). There is allot of good information posted by several individuals and if this information is totally wiped then it is a sad loss for everyone (including future members) concerned.
Nigel, you yourself have made a point of asking people not to PM you so that the information is shared in "the community" I fully respect this and thank you for the help you have given me personally. The forum is built on people with a wealth of knowledge like yourself (and, of course others - not wishing to offend anyone
)
Don't know what has gone on, don't wish to become part of it. But just thought I'd ask the powers that be the question so that if any one else leaves, the information can be preserved.
Edit - one example is that I'm in the process of fitting cruise controll. I've read the info on this site (using the search facility) and hope to do it at the weekend when the parts come. I would never have been in a situation to do this myself without reading the info on here. I also know that when I come to do it and come accross a problem I can post it on here and someone will help me. Audi quoted £379, part were in the region of £60. No brainer really. I hope to be able to post a how to (if I get time) - wouldn't it be a shame if this info and help wasn't available to others
