    Chucked a bucket of water over it. Three hours later this is the result.         Happy with that

Not with 3.6 mm tread! 

 

Having kept the tyres pressures correct and I'm a low mileage user I'm at a loss as to the extreme tyre 'consumption'. 

 

So recommendations needed for long lasting tyres for a sportline 220.?

Fitted these front door puddle lights..

i've got the hatch - ideally i'd like to install an additional 2 lights in the boot lid, like how it is in the wagon's boot lid.

its just the wiring and having to remove the boot lid trim that deters me :(

@JR RS

i have ordered four bulbs,
original, in the boot, i replaced by myself
but additional, on the lid, were installed by official dealer,
as they reported power were took from the closing button
instead i were imagined long wires to the original bulbs

33. service visit within 32 months -
Dealer installed correct buttons on the steering wheel.
but rejected software update for headlights, which was known as recall 94K1

Halfway through my lease so swapped front and rear wheels to make best use of the tyres. Now have a dirty car with immaculate wheels, not a good look.

I pumped an average of 3.5 lbs. of pressure into each of my tyres to bring them back up to 36 psi, all due to the low temperature. They hadn't been checked since Sicily in September. Just getting things ready for a weekend in Winchester.

Speaking of tyres.....

 

On Wednesday evening, the TPMS alerted me to low pressure in the right rear tyre - checked with a tyre pressure gauge and indeed it was down 7 psi from 37.

All good since then.

 

The next day, Thurs evening, the TPMS altered me once again, this time saying my front left is misbehaving.  

Surely enough, there was a big screw and the tyre was flat!!

Spare put on while the punctured tyre was off.

$35 later, tyre is plugged, and TPMS is happy.

Interesting note is that with the spare tyre on - ACC won't work.

I've never dried my car like this before; does it take long?

VIN isn't listed in recall list, few months too old

and light beam isn't enough down
