Just watched Night Agent. Only one series so far though. The Continental. John Wick prequel. Lucifer. American Gods.

Quite enjoyed this. Worth watching for the opening 15 mins or so. I know it's all CGI but it was very well done.

Not seen this thread before... The Who - Pinball wizard Van Halen - Mean street Great White - Rock me Magnum - Don't wake the lion Def Leppard - Too late for love (Drastic symphonies) -
Thought it promised more than it delivered this one. I'm also an Ethan Hawke fan. Predestination is one of my favourite films. Source Code is on BBC iPlayer currently. Clever 90 mins sci-fi / thriller.

Ha! Reminded me of this... VID-20201114-WA0000.mp4

I thought I'd updated this thread, but apparently not!...sorry! Didn't go well. The garage had my car for weeks without being able to diagnose anything...VCDS couldn't find the problem & every component they isolated & tested was working. Still wouldn't start though. Eventually they found swarf in the high pressure pump, which had fed through to the injectors. So I ended up with new pumps, injectors, filters, hoses...almost every part of the fuel system. Don't have the invoice to hand, but it was well over £3k. Throw in the flywheel, EGR valve, tyres, servicing & a few other bits I've forgotten & the last year or so has cost £7k in maintenance. I still love my Superb & I've stuck over 130k on it during my ownership, but I could really do with 2-3 years of trouble free motoring now.

I've turned into a big Michelin fan. PS4's & Alpin 6's were the tyres that the Cross Climate's have replaced. I've got PS4S's on the Audi as well. The only non-Michelin tyres I have left now are the Audi winter's, Bridgestone Blizzack's, which have been very good to be fair.

I so wanted an Aero. A few posts up you'll see my Audi S8. It was that or a 9000 or 9-5 Aero. Still find myself looking. Just can't run 3 cars. We'll see... -

I've developed quite a taste for this recently. Being stuck on the computer has suddenly become less of a chore... -
After 7 years of summer / winter wheels I can now only store one set, so I've retained the one's I had for the Audi & gone all season on the Superb. Original Themisto's looking pretty scuffed these days, but now wearing Cross Climate 2's. Good so far, but early days.

Some cars are just cars & some you really bond with. Had a 9000 CSE 2.3 lpt. That was the first car I really bonded with. Followed by a 9-5. Loved my Saabs. -

Thank you for the response. Can't truthfully answer too many of these, but I'm guessing they would've been picked up by now? The fuses / relays looked okay & VCDS etc hasn't indicated otherwise. The issue seems to be between the fuel tank & the high pressure pump, but something doesn't add up. Would any of those suggestions stop the car dead when it was on the move?
