    Broken Interior bits

    I had the same prob with my passenger sun visor clip. It went loose and went to push it back in and it split into 3 pieces. Was thinking of glueing it back together then using rubberised glue fixing it to the visor arm but not to the roof lining. I dont sit in the passenger seat so dont use the...

    Michelin Pilot Sport 4 wear rate...

    I got just under 20,000 out of my Hancocks V12's on the front. I thought that was bad but it looks good now. Most driving was long distance with some squirts along country lanes.

    Try changing the battery. My driver door started to play up and the battery in fob was newish and was reading only half a volt down. In desperation I replaced it with a new well known make and success. Door now works fine.

    Replacement Wing Mirror Glass

    Thanks Guys. Got a new one for £13 including postage. It just clips on, easy to do. Surprised they dont fall out more often. Didnt bother to connect up the heating element wires as one wire had snapped off behind the two motors and couldnt see how to get to it without taking it all apart.

Quick visit to my friendly garage who managed to break the flap off and then gain access to the motor/solinod. I didnt have time to go in through the boot etc I needed a...

    Dont know Im afraid. But it was my passenger headlight that blew also but the drivers side still worked. It knocked out the fuse for the levelling motor as well, so my garage said. The bulb blew again about 4 weeks later but no fuses blown that time. Decided to upgrade and fit more expensive...

    Dipped beam won't work

    When my bulb blew it took the fuse out as well. Have you checked it? Dont ask me which one coz I got the garage to do it as I didnt have time. All I can say is its hidden and various bits have to be taken out to get to it.

    What air freshener are you rolling with

    I hate seeing hanging air fresheners too. I tuck mine down the side of the passenger carpet. I love the smell of the leather one.
