I will look into that as used to use launch for landys but not the best system

I do wonder if off road tyres should be legalised for road cars as not many roads count as proper roads any more!

Sounds like fun. With the thunderstorms forecast I may be able to watch it happen!!!

Worth every penny of our taxes. Really makes me proud to be working!

Unfortunately not just your tyres. The roads in the uk are simply shocking! Even the relaid surfaces aren't flat or smooth and still take longer than ever to do!!!!

I spent 30 odd years doing diagnostics on euro crap and none of that covered everything either regardless of cost! I always swore not to own something I have to plug in to fix but here we are (doh!)

I am sure this will be no surprise but I seem to have random volume control on stereo from either unit dial or steering wheel controls but not necessarily the same result from both! The sat nav has a mind of it's own but at least the hvac seems to work properly at today! I am guessing I need a...

That sounds much safer! My key looks quite original (tired) and has original dealer key ring(also tired). The key has a sticker with e0682 on it but guess that is a type label?
