    Every panel on the left mate is crushed.. the chassis is probably twisted and the suspension is trashed too.. hit a dodgy camber on a side road, only doing 40mph but quick enough to throw its on its side and then into a ditch... Grrrrr

    HELP ....What is this??

    we did clear the faults and it went away and then came back. The noise is an actual leak though if i push the round grommet it stops leaking so hoped it might be more than the normal ticking i have just read about...

    HELP ....What is this??

    A friend did but he said it wasn't clear as it reported a brake issue i.e switch issue then and he said it would be that causing the engine light too.

    HELP ....What is this??

    Do you think the 'bung/grommet' would be easy to pull out or are they fitted so not removable? What i would like to do is remove the bung and then seal it with something.... Obviously if this sorted the engine light too i would be in heaven lol
