    Series 3 Mobile phone holder suggestions

    Sygic taught me that if there's a hint of slowing on the clockwise M25, come off at J14, straight over the roundabout and rejoin. It's hilarious. (Stay left for as long as you dare before the M4).

    Map updates are 'free' on a 'phone too. (I paid for Sygic, so technically its free updates aren't completely free).

    Good man. I don't completely agree on screens though. It's becoming unavoidable.

    Sorry SS, but 'tongue in cheek' like that is for AG. And that quoted reply was beyond tongue in cheek.

    2 1/4 petrol bogging

    Series 3 New "ticking" noise upon acceleration (in gear only)

    Sorry, I skim read and thought the clutch had been changed. If nothing's obvious when you look underneath, jack up one side, spin wheels in neutral to get the the propshafts and transfer box, handbrake drum etc all turning.
