Afternoon all, So on the mice have been at my Scout engine bay, and as well as chomping on the foam backing of the undertray, they have munched the small diameter pipes leading to the Turbo solenoid (N75??). Looking at replacing them, I just wondered if anyone had any experience to contribute? I'm pretty certain the part number is 04L131051C and they aren't very expensive. Not looking to mod/upgrade as the vehicle is likely to become the property of WBAC/Motorway in the very near future... Thanks all

I shall check the work diary, (and with SWMBO!), but maybe!

You're not suggesting he'd be a bit devious are you?! He seems like a prize ass..et for any company! Wonder if he still has his job? Still hiding in Lordswood / M27 / Swanwick...shhh its a secret!

Expensive way to avoid parking costs! Keep reading down through the comments to make it worthwhile. "i've been made to look an idiot in the local paper. Everyone knows what I look like. Think i'll go and get abusive in the comments section, that will help" PL

Well hello there, and welcome to Briskoda! that kinda attitude will fit right in

you're not hanging around the right car-parks...

I'll echo both the welcome to Briskoda and to Southampton!

Good evening and welcome. Might be best posting the same question in the fabia II forum here

good evening and welcome to Briskoda!

and thus Briskoda is the place to be! Welcome

Good evening and Welcome!

I have the Nokia Lumia 800 about a week, having upgraded from a boggo spec nokia - I have to say I like it very much! Whilst the Apple fans I work with derided it, everyone (them included) who has had a play has been very impressed with the slickness of the OS (win 7.5), the quality of the screen and the feel of the phone itelf. Its a good camera also. I've only had a little play with the voice-dialling, via the headphone/speaker, worked perfectly. Not sure how well it works with other systems. Downsides - sealed battery, non expandable memory (but about 13gb to play with), Limited apps but more becoming available daily. Battery life is similar to that mentioned above, gonna be charging once a day. Maybe worth a look/play anyway? PL

I got an advisory last year for delaminating backbox - in typical fashion I did F-all until this year. Loosened off the mounts, wrapped some galv sheet steel around, secured using steel bands, gaps filled with gun gum. The tester was very impressed, asked if it was a professional rebuild! think the steel cost a fiver in the end - check for a metal fabricator near you! hth PL

I fixed my xbox not long ago - had the disc read error. I ended up opening it up, changing the laser unit in the drive, put it back together and 8 months later all is still fine. The laser unit cost £7ish (http://www.amazon.co...35542668&sr=8-2), and no risk of drive not being recognised plus i am not great at diy/electronics, and yet I didn't f*** it up! Gotta love instructional videos on Youtube ETA there may be slight differences in the laser unit, depending on manufacturer. Amazon have this one too which thinking about it, is the one I bought! Just open up the xbox and check which brand before buying

I had the "delaminating back-box" advisory last year, so my dad got some galvinised sheet steel, we wrapped it round the box with some steel bands, filled the gaps with gun gum. not only did it pass, the tester asked if it had been professionally rebuilt! not sure on the 20th, will check shifts and get back to you all
