  9. On the way to work about 30 minutes ago, travelling down a hill at about 50 in a 60 ,on the opposite side coming up a car going about same speed as me with a silver pick up truck behind and a fast approaching red pick up truck, on my side a single lane on other 2 lanes with double white lines between my side and the other, well the silver truck pulls out to overtake the slower car without indicators!,giving the fast approaching red pick up very little closing speed, the red pick up then lost control of its rear and the red pickup was right across my lane with its side coming for me!, at the very last second the pickup snapped and got tracking and just gave me enough space to squeeze through,how the hell i got through unscathed i dont know but im one lucky welsh man i tell you,i have the footage on dashcam i will get my son to get it,its going on youtube defo
  10. Well done the usa for kicking the establishment in the knackers!,lets give him the chance before we jump to knife him in the back,he is not perfect but no one ever is,putin thinks hes got a new buddy lets see how that goes, trump is a muppet but the rednecks chose him and not that establishment liar,its a strange new world ,we are out of the europe,usa has a new czar ,europe in turmoil and russia getting ready for cold war, so its probably time to learn mandarin
  11. At my chiropractor last night and the receptionist said " i took my A4 in on monday" , and the bloody thing is not running right! The emmissions light came up and it went into limp mode,she had her a4 in for the update ecu for the 2.0 engine and they said " nothing to do with us " ( audi llandudno) , they where going to charge her for the dpf burn out, so whatever is done the system can not get rid of the soot as it used to do so potentially a lot of dead or blocked dpfs on the way i reckon, well its just made me even more sure not to let vw near mine ! Posted yesterday in wrong place !

  13. No you can not get a standard roof as a replacement it needs to be specific to/for a retro build roof for a conservatory
  14. Im in the process of getting prices for removing my conservatory roof and replacing with a solid "warmroof" system, ive looked into several manufacturers such as guardian,leka , ultraframe and prefix system has anyone here have any input ?,have you had one fitted? What is your thoughts ? How much warmer in winter has the room been or cooler in summer are you happy with the product .
  15. They never had issues previously ,concidence? There is mention of dpf issues after this patch is done and vehicles not running correctly, this patch will effect dpf surely if the cars fuel usage goes up ?

  19. I needed new treads on the car, so i plummed for conti premium contact 5 205-55-16 w , tried everywhere and eventually got a price i was happy with £280 fitted vat included, however i thought whilst passing halfords "i will give em a go" just for a laugh!, same tyre £250 all in well shiver me timbers i thought i will have them, so thank you halfords
  20. Not its not about the money we didnt want to go agency,we wanted to help local welsh kids simply because welsh is our first language and there are not enough welsh speaking families standing up to foster?we are going the council route as it seems the best way forward for us

  22. I've just done a boo boo ! Just topped up the car with the wrong oil, I topped up the car with castrol edge 5w x 40 rather than the mobil1 esp 5w x 30, I'm about to service the car in the coming weeks, I topped up with just a little about 150mls should I worry ? It's got a dpf . Thanx
