…. as long as the owner has always worn green socks and sprinkles 00’s and 000’s on their bacon sarnies every other time they eat one and that must be before 05.00 on the third Wednesday of the month preceding Lent.

Errrr… that’ll be bulllll-sh1te! I’ve swapped the tyres round a couple of times without any problems.

Hmmm. Is the battery actually covered under the warranty?

I have the latest iOS update (yesterday) and I have numerous non Apple cables, all of which I can safely say are not Apple certified and they all work. The one in the car is some very short, well made, non-certified cable and that also worked perfectly.

🙄

Yes! 👍🏻

So you didn’t remove the steering wheel cover? It is literally a five minute job.

Really? I suggest you don’t hold your breath. They can’t even agree on the specifications to allow private electric scooters on the roads which, I think, have been legal in most EU countries for years, yet you can now legally ride a bike on the pavement here in Kingston! Seriously, “Shared Use” they call it; idiotic I call it….

Never will be.

C’mon then….im sitting down.🙄

Perhaps it might be worthwhile getting a Racechip XLR pedal box?

Stop messing about, and rip it out this weekend! 😁

It’s not like it’s an unobtainable part from a 1970 Ferrari; the clock spring is a €150 (and a lot less in fact) part and easily available.

I’ll wait for @ApertureS to give his insight into this….

Both sound exactly the same as I had on the MKII.

Nice. Dare I ask?

Thanks everyone who’ve replied. Well, given the updates from Danoid here in the WHYDTYS3T thread, I’m not going to bother to update the OE Xenons, as the hype doesn’t match reality. Frankly, there seems to little or no difference in illumination, so I’ll just hang on to my £150 quid for now.

I have Conti AllSeason and they’re excellent.

Hmmmm…. Anyone else think that sounds like a noisy clock spring?

Sorry Graham, I should add the Columbus button says “Traffic” not “TMC”.

Yes, quite sure….

That’s odd. When I hit the TMC button, it’s starts locally but then, slowly, it continues ‘til I get the whole of the mainland U.K. It takes a minute or so to complete but it’s all there and it the. Just keeps updating. If you then tap the individual item, you get more detailed info on the incident.

Nope, the original OE units. Took that pic in June 22.

Yeah, LED are ridiculously bright at the headlamp but strangely, in a lot of applications, they’re not the huge improvement that Xenon was over Halogen.

Unsurprising on the first point and probable on the second. One other thing to remember is, in the last 10 years, most local authorities (and all in Greater London) have replaced their old, expensive-to-buy-and-run and very inefficient sodium street lighting for far cheaper, more efficient and much brighter LEDs. This could also be the reason that Xenon headlights appear to be no longer as bright as they once were. Get out into areas with little or no lighting and they’re far more acceptable. I certainly remember being amazed how good the Xenons were on our MKI Superb, compared to the Halogens on the Octavia it replaced.
