Hello All, Are those any good for the FL1 towbars? I was looking for the parts no. but couldn't find it anymore in the catalogue as my one looks like a cheese with a huge hole in it. When searching those came up, my one is 170mm wide and around 140 high, the holes would fit, but I have two...

Hi There, my wife hit a brick wall behind the parking slot this morning while parking backwards. As I have a towbar I was wondering where it's fitted? I think it's the rear subframe, but am not sure. It was more or less idle just re-parking straight but a loud hit. An ideas what to look out...

Good Morning All, I am just on a trip and was surprised that after 398 from Calais on the motorway the tank was still half full. Didn't drive more than 65 to 70 mph (it showed like 105km/h on the satnav), but when going ahead and filling up it came to 45.5mpg which I found surprisingly nice at...

Hello All, the buttons for the horn aren't working, doesn't honk. The horn seems ok as the alarm went off during the farmers market:rolleyes: guess in full lock with dog inside. The fuse is ok as well, I assume otherwise the alarm wouldn't work either. What would be next? The spring thing ebay...

Good Evening All, was just driving home from a walk with the dog, had a/c and the fan on 3 or 4 when it did an odd noise cling and it feels like fluid/water would come in through the air vents. I turned it down to one and it disappeared. First I thought it was the drinking cup which I had...

Hello All, I was wondering what would the easiest way be to get rear link / trailing arm changed? Can I just drive the car up the Hippo ramps or would I need to take the wheels off to change it/ jack it up? The garage usually says rubbers would be good, but after alm. 212T miles and wobbly from...

Hello All, Just a quick question. Last week just before a longer trip the coolant reservoir was empty so used my wife's tiny one. About two/three weeks ago I had the auto box oil cooler changed as leaking. I thought to refill and run the engine to see if I can spot a leak, but so far nothing...
