There was a thread a while back on detailing world where the guy had bought a kit which has sandpaper and removes the top layer of the steering wheel then it has a coating to re-coat the leather over the top. Personally Id just try and find a replacement wheel or maybe get a re-cover by these guys if its cheaper? - http://royalsteeringwheels.com

I had the foam fix and it came back, then a replacement panel and it came back. I stuck with the stirrer...
-
I fixed mine by jamming a coffee stirrer up the joint in the seat belt adjuster.

Nice car that. I was looking at the X3 but decided the F31 was big enough for us plus I like estates Cant fault the move to BMW at the moment. Im really enjoying the car.

I was assuming he meant the sticky valve problem. Mine never lost any fluid. It just packed up on the motorway and errored saying stop the engine immediately so it required a tow to the garage
-
yes but only when it fails so you'll end up with a tow :(

Ive also done the same thing in May this year. 5 Octavia's then after the mk3 Ive moved to a 335d that I got a big discount on. Its smaller in in the boot but a nicer car/engine/auto box and Ive got a roof box for when I need the big space for moving my daughter to Uni!

The Briskoda drive recorder video footage thread part 2
sworrall replied to TeflonTom's topic in Off Topic Chat
it always looks miles away on the wide-angle dash cam but it was enough for me to slam on the brakes. Id say a couple of feet and I was still accelerating to get around the other cars before the next gantry so I could slot in to the left lanes again. privacy fixed -

I had this oxygen thief nearly take us out on the m6 near cannock on Sunday. I was overtaking the golf in the variable speed limit area so not wanting to go too much over the limit with all the cameras. There was a car behind me a good distance back. No idea where this guy came from. Time and date is wrong as the blackvue cocked up for some reason but it was parked in an underground for a day so maybe lost the GPS? Removed the sound due to some sweary words! Cj7 is for sale on regplates.com for £50k and isn't insured according to adkmid :( cj7 mercedes m6 -
Mine was a september 13 build and it came with it. It was mainly the demos which came without. Accelerate and flick the mode between sport and eco and you'll soon know if you have it but otherwise there's a hockey puck unit under the panel in front of the windscreen.

Withdrawal of VRS 230 and 4x4TDi?
sworrall replied to juan27's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
No idea but I doubt they'd get close to some of the online lease deals. Id go that way myself if my yearly mileage wasn't so variable. -

From what Ive read the BMW is 60:40 permanent but will shift 100% either way once it loses traction on front or back. It works really well on mine. It was quite simple with mine :( Crap discount offered and worse PX than BMW were offering so off I went.
