Thanks all... I'm now thoroughly depressed. As much as I love the FL to drive, I don't think I'd have the confidence to buy another :(

:p even if VCU shot?! It might only be smallish things but it's been a very expensive few months!

:( what's the IRD?

The plastic bit literally flopped off when I went to have a look (little moving of wires to see if anyting was loose). I can't see anything caught on anything else.. but then I'm not entirely sure what I'm looking for!!! I'm quite proud I even managed to get the trim off lol. Also it...
