Michelin Own ATS Euromaster & BlackCircles & various Tyre Brands. Online Ordering can be cheaper than at a ATS Euromaste Center, not always though. Michelin Pilot Alpin 5 is a good choice. But best get on sooner in your chosen size rather than later, so getting them while prices are as they are. Very likely to be increasing. I had Alpin 6,s on my Corsa electric but wrecked sidewalls on 2 on potholes on the A93. I put on Riken Snow tyres. A brand Michelin own. This winter CrossClimate 3 on my MG EV and BF Goodrich KM3 AT,s on my pickup. I get Michelin discounts. There are good BF Goodrich Snow Tyres for cars..EG g-Force Winter 2,s. Plenty winter or AS threads in thd tyre section. (I had TIGAR Snow tyres on my Volvo S60, another brand Michelin Own). Maxxis AP2,s on my Fabia vRS & Maxxis AP3,s on my MINI Cooper S ev replacing the Vredestein Quatrac Pro + that were hopeless on the snow.

Briskoda DQ 200 servicing. Or Briskoda DQ 200 oil changes. In any search engine. Ignore Fabia MK2 threads as obviously pre 2015 issues. Service campaigns.

VW have different advice on oil changes for lower annual mileage, short trip vehicles, differing useages even though Long Life oil.

Pollen filter is @ 2 years or sooner. Check it. Change is easy. Brake fluid schedule is 2 years. Air filter should be inspected, they might leave for 6 years. Inspect, check, look, hinge lube, etc etc etc. Stuff that cars always need. Especially when not doing much driving.

6 hours or even 7 hours cheap tariff and maybe 15 kWh. / 60 miles if lucky added. But then you might use standard tariff and be 35 pence rather than the latest 10 pence offerings. New Motability choices of EV,s and Ice vehicles greatly reduced if paying £1,000 or less advanced payments. A few bigger Chinese cars on offer. And 5 UK manufactured cars. MINI Cooper, Nissan Juke or Quasqai, Toyota Corolla or a Peugeot e-Rifter. £4,399 advance payment....

I put the Quatrac pro + on my Mini Cooper S electric as soon as i got it. When the snow came they were crap so i put on Maxxis AP3,s this was in 2023. I posted in tyre section. Plenty stuff in All Season threads or winter tyre threads. I have CrossClimate 3,s on my MG ev now, not long now till i see how they are on snow. Very good on the wet. Maxxis AP 3,s very good all seasons IMO. Good value.

Not translated or read that. Plenty info on here on DQ200,s. Change both oils if you want. If you know what you are doing or the mrchanic does. Pre 2013, then 2013-2017/18 then on might have different issues. Service campaigns / recalls in 2014 and 2017 and tpi,s/tsb,s.

Welcome to the forum. Car comes from factory on Variable flexible oil and filter and inspection services, 24 months 30,000 km / 18,000-2,000 miles. So yours was changed to the fixed regime. How many km a year will you do, service as you want or require. We do not know how the car is used or what checks you do yourself. No idea even what engine you have.

Are there over 30 million buildings that the cable from the wall socket can get to a vehicle near enough? All these places with supposed off road access. What if your property in the building is not on the ground or 1st floor? PS. A Google gives it as something like 30.4 million residential homes not buildings. See all those residences in blocks, high rise buildings etc discount running your cable out from the wall socket.

So more articles on fuel and China banning exports and then Car Dealer magazine on the rush to buy ev,s but dealers not wanting trade in ice,s. Maybe so. Lots and lots of Chinese manufactured and owned EV,s in the UK ready and at sea on there way here. Win win, every cloud a silver lining for China thanks to the POTUS.

Andy Burngam mp / Pm and ministers announcing so much, hinting at so much. But this country is England mostly, they just forget to say England only as do bbc anxxsky. If all of UK then they need to say that. Heating oil support in Scotland expanded. But You and yours on Radio 4 yesterday seemed unaware. As with so many things. English Broadcasting corporporation. Stay Warm Discount Core group England and Wales different from Core group Scotland or Broader Group. Solar or Charger grants different by 4 nations of the UK.

Gridserve are great when great. But seeing as some report not getting the speeds then surely only some are great. Everything when working as they should be are great and when not crap. IME. I have experiences that are great and also ones that are crap. Stirling castle view park and ride. 1 50 kW out of service, 2 giving 50 kW, and the one I was on giving 26 kW. But only wanted the £2 min amount so 10 minutes and £2.08 worth.

MFG connect using app now only 59 pence a kWh.

Truth , Girvan harbour DC charger still out of order 2 months on. Charge place Scotland today, female call handler said, wasted my time calling to report again as the council knows and no more CPS can do. That is because the system is sh!te.

Refined oil is really all that matters to customers of liquid fuels. Crude can be transported as and when. If sanctions on Russian Diesel and the USA having to really hold on to what they have for the home market then there is enough being refined or there is not. Or there are those that get oil and can refine but are choosing not to and controlling the market. What ever Donald Trump tries to do will hit some some places. Maybe make some of his even wealthier.

Sorry. As the posts above. Dowhill Farm between Turnberry and Girvan. In and asphalting and lines painted just completed today. Wind turbine on the hill. Should not be long till goes live.

.^^^^ so Tesla chargers.

Skoda News when Skoda get around to making an announcement. In the EU/Europe-UK. Maybe even RECALL vehicles that might be affected by contacting Registered Keepers.

.

VW Group have had plenty time now to sort out Snagging Faults with the ID Buzz, and all the other VW Group new models or new generations with faults / issues. Now they have a new issue to get their Dealerships & Authorised workshops to deal with. Which Skoda's in which regions of the globe that might be affected would be handy to know. For Skoda owners / drivers. ** NoteVW Caddy 11 years of production from 2013.

I also believe so because that is what is said on the internet / dealers sites etc. Why not ask the Dealership near you what they actually know since their job is getting in new Skoda vehicles on tours of the UK & then Showroom & Demonstrator versions. If they can not say or do not know then who does?

As with any Global or World Wide Recall with VW Group you need to check see if your vehicle is involved and The Globe includes the EU / Europe / UK and not just a Service Campaign where eventually you get a RECALL message or not. Skoda Secret Service Service Campaigns. Need to know basis. The Dealership Service Receptionists might not know.

Anyway. Talking about it will make no difference. Up sh!t creak without a paddle happens on occasions in the UK. Sometimes Labour in power & sometimes the Tories. People someplace will make a killing out of it as usual. The Labour Party are at their wee swarree. Balls, Buffets & Banquets.

Maybe worth searching for these threads.
