  1. I'm not sure where these fit, but Peugeot 208s and Skoda Scalas have been used as private hire cars (not Ubers, real private hire) in Greater Glasgow.
  2. Please, let me know when you're going to reply to the statement I actually made rather than ignore it.
  3. No it can't. Either you buy a gizmo from AliExpress or you have to turn Lane Enforce off on start up every time you start the engine.
  4. Yes, and I really wish I didn't!
  5. ... and the new car showroom.
  6. No. Handling mods let you use whatever power you have more. With box stock used suspension, any extra power will be swallowed up in extra body roll and/or wheel skip.
  7. Your screenshot doesn't show which vehicle type(s) the AEY was fitted to, so proves nothing either way.
  8. Critically important sentence now in boldface. Yes that engine is "rally reliable" but achieving that means that it is stripped and rebuilt in full between events.
  9. This appears to have made no difference to who's posts I can't see without revealing posts or unblocking individuals!!
  10. As originally designed (QV upthread) Citroen "aerobumps" were designed to protect against car park door scratches, not as a meaningful side impact structure as you seem to believe based on this posting.
  11. Drive-by noise for a given installation is controlled primarily by tyre tread pattern, wear and road surface. Interior noise is controlled more by tyre construction and suspension design.
  12. Almost certainly not, but as you've not said what size wheel and tyre you bought...
  13. Yes and? The originals are several years old and the glass envelope has a deposit of tungsten vapour on it.
  14. OK, it's a problem then. Or maybe a software issue because you do get a light load/neutral rev limiter.
  15. Somehow not an actual surprise; the "official" (actually manufacturer self-certified) noise level is for external drive-by noise, not cabin noise.
  16. @Jocko - I'd agree with @Breezy_Pete in the main, but I'd also look for pink residues on the joints between the radiator matrix and tanks, and around the feed and return pipe joints, particularly if your car still has VAG "spring clips" rather than graduating to proper Terry Jubilee clips.
  17. @SimmondsR That's true, but you'd also get the backup of a free to you solicitor specialising in Consumer Affairs' Law writing the rejection letter.
  18. Almost certainly. No idea. Best guesses would be Fabia, Octavia and Favorit, Felicia Guides fora Scrappie, using the 5 finger discount.
  19. The OP says he has a Yeti both in body text, and in user metadata.
  20. "Auto Hold" doesn't only operate when the car is on an incline.
  21. Last time I came across "stuck on rear brakes" the car had rear drums and I got it mobile again in about a minute, including time to get 3 car lengths behind it cleared of other traffic and staying clear (thank you constable). Put it in reverse, rev to 2_500 drop the clutch and declutch again fast then tap foot brake.
  22. On a cruise control stalk. HTH.
  23. Actually, make that a 3rd option, "H*11 NO!"
