  1. Still got these wiper blades anyone interested £15 full set in box brand new. That's @ half price. cheers
  2. Only similar experience I had was a dead short on alternator, Saab, everything from central locking to power steering gave up, warning lights all over dash .
  3. Like he says, wax over it when done
  4. Although the car has been gone a while I still look in here, the forum, however one of the reasons I decided to get rid was the fact I wasn't happy with the gearbox/clutch operation. Sometimes a real pain getting reverse or first and a clattering noise from cold starting appearing to be gearbox related which was getting worse. I had it back twice to dealer who was reluctant to have the clutch and gearbox inspected, stating they wanted me to sign something to agree to pay for work if it was discovered to be down to general wear and tear! This was @20k miles and under 3 years old, still under warranty.
  5. Still got these for sale.
  6. Yes should be fine, give me a message on here. thanks
  7. No longer have the Citigo but have 3 wiper blades still boxed, I got in ready for 1st MOT. 2 front Bosch 1 rear Valeo I paid neck end of £30 delivered if anyone can pick them up you can have them £15, I'm in Durham DH9 area (but also work DH1).
  8. I wasn't too happy with the manual gearbox on mine at 22k, bit of a rattle when cold and sometimes difficult to get reverse or first gears from start up. Car's gone now and to be fair it done everything we needed till I got other things in life sorted out. They're still popular plenty 17 plates around I notice.
  9. Had mine in yesterday, heat shield replaced(I didn't think it was the problem noise anyway)but the rattling back again from cold this morning. Stops once clutch pedal is pressed, searched threads on here seems likemine has this common problem now it's got a few miles on. Did anyone get a successful result from dealer while under warranty? I only got 3 months warranty left.
  10. Possibly alternator fault, had similar (although not with Skoda).
  11. mine's green, thing is it always looks clean even though I don't wash it very often, maybe one a fortnight or 3 weeks .wouldn't be my first colour choice but the price was right at the time. Workmates take the p*** but I just think it sits in the car park all day loosing money, and at lot less money than theirs! £15 a week in fuel, taxed it yesterday £20, and £127 FC insurance for myself and wife, gets from A to B in the same time as any other car in rush hour traffic.......suddenly I love Green!!
  12. Exactly, first car I've had without heated mirrors for 20 yrs not the end of the world but it's still a pain having to remember every damp morning.
  13. Good luck with your new car, first thing I noticed when I got mine was how easy it is on the pocket. Great A to B car. Sadly circumstances dictate I might need to get an estate car soon, but I'm hanging on to the Citigo with fond memories.
