It's coming up to that time again.

Not sure if EGS 9432 is my colour? The meet is at Gaydon home of the British Motor Museum,well worth a visit ,if lnterested in that sort of thing .I visited it when attending the AEC (old defunct maker of Londons and elsewhere 's buses and lorries etc etc )Rally some years ago.(l'm ex employee)They have just finished revamping it ,with guided tours taking you round.

It looked like my blue! Yes l do go to specsavers !must be going colour blind .Are you going to Gaydon,it'll be a 3 hour trip for me ,lot more for you.

simspj you were lucky hope l am l thought you had fitted it.Ours are the same colour thinks.

Cheers simspj your a star! l must be out of touch with prices! Perhaps one will be on sale at Gaydon .

Thanks again simspj l will give one a go ,mine was the traditional type ,cost £ 3 ! cheap and cheerless.!

Is there such an item,and has anyone fitted one.l would like to do so ,and hopefully cover over a dent in that area.

Thank you simspj ,mine measures 15 3/4 " (400mm) ,does the small difference make the difference!!? Also what make are the OE ,and are there any recommendations out there?

Which is the size of the OE fitment ?,as mine does not clear the screen properly due to the compound curvature of the screen .

Correction just the bonnet and tailgate and wheel centre badges are blue,the engine and steering wheel badges are green!

All of my bonnet ,tailgate and engine badges are blue

I have ordered and received from an eBay seller a new genuine bonnet badge .About to fit it and found my old one has blue infilling and the new is green (as are all on eBay ).Is my badge a rarity and does anyone know where l can purchase one?Thanks.Vince

Help please for a total newbie into the world of self diagnostics ! Have downloaded 2 apps ,outils OBD facile (free French I believe)and car doctor. Now I need advice on which elm327 device to go for .Hope I make sense and look forward to your help.Thanks Vince

Surely somebody here can help me? Wiring diagram would be very useful.

Just to say it cost me £93 all in (FAG bearing fitted)

Both have now stopped working on my 03 elegance estate.Both bulbs replaced ,so must be wiring/switch(es) .Any help for a electrical nube gratefully received .PS (Towbar electrics fitted before my ownership)

Thanks to you guys for your replies.l agree with Tech1e that the wheel alignment is not affected when replacing the wheel bearing it must be worn suspension components ie track rod ends etc.

Have reached 130k and one of the front wheel bearings is moaning.Anybody ideas of time/cost to have it replaced and wether to insist on make of bearing?

All sorted.New discs and pads fitted (no details )& Attend to drive shaft coupling (Tighten bolts?)Time denied further info.Thanks to those who posted a reply

Taken to garage today.They thought discs/pads not changed at same time.Service record shows they were at 75,896 now 114,000.After changing discs/pads they will look into the cause of the knocking.

Perhaps the discs were disturbed when the wheels were removed/replaced?No advisories.Just looked at June posting on similar fault,wheel bearings suggested as cause?

The steering vibration is consistent during both

Thanks Trundlenut.Both front tyres replaced in recent mot .l was thinking faulty brake disc(s) causing the vibration.l would have thought mot would have found defective suspension components
