Ah boo. Was hoping this would be an easy fix. Will probably wait until the spring. Too cold at the moment. MOT not due until Aug, so will have to get it done by then anyway.

Thanks for the reply. It's a late 2006, so pre facelift? Sorry, do you mean I can pull the head washer jet off first, or bumper off first? Ta

Hi So noticed today that the o/s headlight washer is coming out, but not squirting water onto the headlight. The passenger side is working perfectly. Is there a way to check/pull out the washer unit, without taking the bumper off? Only to see if the washer pipe has fallen off, or to unblock the washer jets? I did a search, but couldn't find anything similar to the problem I have. Thank you.

Yeah, who wants folding mirrors anyway!!

Ah, that's why! Maybe an optional extra on the older cars then?

It doesn't work on my 2006 L&K. Booo! And on holding the lock button down, it now won't open! Double boo!

What! That is amazing. Will try this on mine when the wife gets home! Or is this a trick that L&Ks, post 2006 it only works on?

A 2.0td! And only because I have one! On a serious note, it's down to what you want and what you need the vehicle for. There's nothing wrong with the 1.9td mind, and now everyone is panicking about diesels, so you will/may pick one up cheap.

I would personally go for the silicone, and see how it goes from there. Mines been leaking too, but think it may be where the rubber, seal around the boot, is upside down!! The holes in the rubber are on the top!? I'm now also going to check where you've pointed out.

Did the new seal work? If not did you get to the bottom of why it leaked?

Will do, I'll find out how much as they are not charging me as I've only had the car for two weeks.

So on speaking to the garage where I purchased the vehicle from. They are taking the car in, next week and will clean the turbo and check the vains for damage. Now that's service! Sorry I didn't have a chance to let you know how it went, if I did it myself, but thought I'd try the garage first.

Just drove back from Lincoln to Cardiff and it didn't go into limp mode. But I drove it fairly nicely. Eased it up to speed and didn't floor it or push it over or up to the red line. Either way I still need to investigate as it went into limp mode twice on the way up to Lincoln and both times the car was under load.

Thanks for the reply. I've only had my car a week, and this is the first time it's happened. If you don't mind I'll update on this thread when I get the time.

Excellent write up. This is something I envisage I will be completing shortly, as mine is doing the same! Did you manage to sort the hesitation out?
