i cannot feel / see how the rear metal fuse connections are removed to replace the plastic carcus the fuses fit into my blower 40amp fuse was constantly needing to be pushed in when the blower stopped working .. then the fuse needed changing (not blown ) ending up with it melting the surrounding shroud ... ive bought a good second hand one with the various sized metal spade connectors still in but cant find a way to disconnect them and the rear pink inner that holds them wont come out either .... i feel ill need to change the old relay underneath the steering wheel all very strange and ive searched and searched i will go tomorrow morning and hope skida can advice but wandered if any fellows here could help trying to get the facts together before i let snyone near it cheers tom

im not 'that' dedicated to perfection ... brilliant write up i tend to take a lateral 'heath robinson look at problems ... i bought a anker bank charger ... stuck it in a pouch with the leads and it charges as travelling alone and into glove box ... then any emergency ... out comes the bank and they get to charge at will

thank you ... no stop start thankfully new 100 amp bosch battery ... garage puts drain around 0.6 amps

thank you ... it seems i might have to go that route sadly .. love the car it started soon after having a new alternator belt and battery fitted still winder about the alternator diode but 500 squids to swop it over

any more news on this subject ? i also now have a bad drain on my mk 2 vrs 2012 estate using a jump pack too often ... brand new battery 100 amp bosch no new equipment fitted but did originally have tow bar removed and all its wiring tucked up under back bodywork?

opps not under the you tube vid i watched and replied to ... sorry pass along

this came in again under briskoda badge and my phone went 'scAM' !!! deleted as junk and restarted phone ill have to run a security check now me thinks shy suddenly this happened ?

did anyone see this !!? read it all ... sheesh https://amp-theguardian-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/amp.theguardian.com/business/2023/sep/06/cars-collect-extensive-personal-data-on-drivers-study-warns

just looking thru' some interesting thoughts here then this question jumped i to my head would you be ok sitting in an EV whilst it was charging ... to not fear a flame moment ?

agreed 100% toot .... planners /council jobs worth dont even go out to check road works were completed safely ... id back any move to get those apparently in charge to actually do just that ... spend a day understanding the hiccups wayfinding in every day life its not just signs and routes, its also seeing the real everyday life world with 'strangers eyes' tom

are we also considering the lack of cash payments everywhere ... i certainly dont like the idea of a government being able to see everything you spend your money on ... far too big brother for me ...

9 years ago my then partner was a pilates instructor in blackheath london ... i sort of picked up how to's along the way ... ill write and draw some notes .. and post them every stretch and release whilst driving is a good thing ... i tend to sit bolt upright in my seat snd arms comfortably bent at 10 to 2 on the steering wheel ... make sure the head restraint is mostly behind your head but not touching ... the only down side to bolt upright is even with ling arms i'm that much closer to the airbag 'bang' moment (not nice) we all have to judge our capabilities 2 to 3 hrs sounds about right depending on attention span ... i keep myself busy with can i predict cars around me next moves before they know it ... i drive into space at all times when i can another subject all together

ill drive long distances 300 miles non stop... traffic jams allowing .. in fact the m25 became my nemesis ... i just wanted to get back pass thru the m25 before i could relax .... just water drinking no food ... the older i got the easier it seemed to be able to do strangely ... settle in do core workout whilst driving ... lands end ... survey building ... back in car and home to east kent

yup graham with you on those thoughts i like the grunt of a diesel and can just live with the mpg ... i do about 30k a year ...but can't afford an Ev for sure i have a motorbike too big to enjoy riding in central london but i go out to europe and beyond twice a year at least ... visits friends ... last trip a netherlands friend wanted to celebrate retiring so we ride to the swiss alps for a couple of weeks of hair pins my 1700cc twin 2003 just missed out on the ulez nox figure required ...so i got a yami conformity certificate to prove it was 0.01 inside the required values ... notified with photo of same on tfl website and a few days later i'm not on the charge list anymore sometimes wonder if cars can also find they are within bounds by getting a conformity certificate ...only one need be bought to start with, if it proves a particular model is good to go ... then yup tfl will want every vehicle to buy one to prove exemption (great for recycling paper ) but the savings soon add up my yamaha cert cost £70
