Would you think AGM is better than EFB? Did you need to code in the AGM?

Battery is well able for it as is the starter.

Heater set to screen only or on screen boost, wheels at an excessive angle, on a steep hill. Just a few more. If you have the colour display it will tell you.

It will work with the engine cold if you leave the heating off and just use the heated seat it will stop/start within a very short distance.

I'm on my second set of OE wiper blades (2019 car) and I must agree they're pretty dire, they've lasted no length. I have a new pair of aerotwins I got from wiperblades.co.uk I was waiting until this cold spell finished to put them on, I know it sounds daft...

Thanks for your reply, are these the ones you have? AUXITO 1156 LED Back Up Reverse Light, Turn Signal Light Brake Tail DR There are two other types on their site but they look to be like the ones I had from Aliexpress with the end lens cap which were dreadful. Unfortunately the ones I linked to are out of stock.

I had aliexpress led's for the reversing lights, while they looked nice, light output to actually see anything was dreadful. I splashed out and bought these Philips X-tremeUltinon gen2 P21W 6000K LED Bulbs (Twin) | PowerBulbs EU I fitted them today and I'm less than impressed tbh, actual light output is still terrible. I'm considering going back to the original tungsten bulbs or getting these Philips Vision Plus P21W (Twin) | PowerBulbs EU Does anyone have recommendations for bulbs you can actually see with?

Had another bash at it today,NADA!! I cannot for the life of me get any of those round ear things on the end of the circlip to budge. Good job I'm not on the side of the road!! Think I'll have to concede defeat on this one and see can I get the local dealer to do it for me. Very very frustrating it's the only car I've ever owned that I couldn't change a headlight bulb in.

Do they look any different? i.e. any beefier or that they might actually do the job they were intended to do. I haven’t seen saggy door seals since the mk2 cortina...

I have version A with the circular clip. I had another look today, space is very tight so I chickened out again. I think I’ll drop the liner down which would give a lot more room. Such a shame the didn’t use the old Octavia system of sliding the headlight out. Third time lucky...

Ok. I got my nice new osram bulbs yesterday. Had a look at my headlights they are type A with the circular clip I was afraid to open the clip as I thought I would end up with bulb and clip loose inside the headlight unit with little chance of everything going back together.. Toyota avensis H7 springs to mind!! However closer inspection of the fantastic photos shows that the clip stays in the housing and the bulb should just slide out ( no turning etc), am I correct in assuming this? I just don't want to break anything.

I asked a sales person about the very limited choices here in Ireland, I was told they were waiting until the budget in October to see are there any massive changes going to happen regarding tax vrt etc. Why has the 2 litre diesel been detuned to a paltry 115 bhp? That 1litre engine is a horrible trashy yoke.

Leaking intercooler or pipework.

Now I remember why I stopped visiting this site. I see xman's condescending attitude hasn't changed.

Is it a belt in oil job same as the 1 litre? If it is belt changes could be very expensive.
