  1. Not sure if this would work, but it did on on my Saab… I got those sachets of desiccant you get with electrical items, tied them to strong thread and put them into the base of the headlight through the bulb hole. Fish them out once the moisture has gone. I guess you can then seal them with silicone after.
  2. Yes it is - it says it on the title, although SMA and SMB are also options.
  3. You could use something like this in your current usb socket https://amzn.eu/d/3QrNy9p
  4. Update for anyone who is interested. I replaced the rear shocks with Bilstein B6's and it was clear the previous shock absorbers had gone. A very easy job and now the handling is much better. I have still got the front ones to do.
  5. Thanks for your responses, Gammy and Warrior. I am running the correct pressures as detailed in the handbook. Time to get the crowbar out and test the bushes then.
  6. Hi folks This is my first foray into asking questions on this site, so please treat me gently... I have a MY2016 1.6 Diesel Estate, which is basic spec. The wheels are 16" and the tyres look like balloons. As I drive over bumps, the car lurches towards the bump (in my very old Moggie Minor this was referred to as bump steer). What would you recommend that I do? I reckon the options are either to get some 18" wheels; change (some/all of) the bushings to polybushes; Change the shock absorbers to Bilstein B6 non-DCC (yes I have read the forum posts)... or what? I would appreciate any advice as I have come from driving a SAAB 9-5 which I was so familiar with. What is the most effective? Thanks in anticipation of your help.
