    Tailgate gas springs

    Hi, Mine seemed to do it about two months ago (58 Stylance) and the Dealers changed them under warranty on the service and..............................Exactly the same:( So much so, that when I picked it up from the service, I went back in and asked if they'd forgotten to do it!! Check...

    3 Years and counting :)

    And I thought I was in the minority being 'sick' about the look of these cars. I spent ages reseaching these before I got one and figured they are soooo underrated. I really don't think they could improve on them (Alfa designer an' all)!! Seems to me, if you look at it from an all round...

    Armrest (again!)

    Hi, I expect everyone is fed up with armrests, but I came across this http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190329877661&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT On the main pic., it doesn't seem to have the bottom bracket, and seems like it may fit like the SEAT one:confused: What do...

    Window Wipers....WTF!!!!

    Hi, Glad this has helped:) Apparently, the guy says, if the signal wire is on its way out, the right wiper can do all sorts of weird stuff, not just what mine did, so when you take yours in, you can pretty much tell them whats wrong! It might save the six hours for them to find out the...

    Window Wipers....WTF!!!!

    Hi, Just a quick update on the dodgy wipers that had a row! Got the car back today and yeah.............they work:happy: In case anyone gets the same stuff happening, it turns out that the left wiper tells the right wiper what to do (a bit like a marriage really) by sending signals down a...

    Window Wipers....WTF!!!!

    Yeah, I think the drivers one had a 'headache':confused: When the guy working on it came back several times for a progress report with 'that look' on his face, I knew it wasn't goin' to get any better! At one point, I asked him to nail it back together and I would take somewhere else - but then...

    Window Wipers....WTF!!!!

    Not wishing to hi-jack!! but this morning I was on way to work and the drivers wiper went down the screen - same as the passengers but then shot back up at warp speed and smacked itself against the pillar, shot out an inch and then returned!! On the next intermittent stroke, it did the same...

    Where do you keep yours?

    Hi, Just my 2p's worth. Ages ago, I bought one of these press/swivel open silver sunglass holder and I've put it above the centre roof light. I used the 'furry' side of velcro strips on the case and it sticks like 's**t to a corgi' to the Leon head lining fabric:D therefore - no...

    Aux socket in Lean FR 170bhp

    Hi Tim, This cable I've got was off eBay from a supplier called 'Cheapcables" and it seems to be sound............pardon the pun:D Don't let the name put you off, it was a really good high quality type cable for around five to six pounds. Just search "3.5mm Aux-in cables"and a few will come...

    Aux in problems

    Hi, Try using the Star button on the left side of your steering whell, it sort of scrolls through FM, CD, Aux etc. I just stop on Aux, plug in the iPod and away to go! Got to admit, I've never selected Aux from the unit, but it should work like that I suppose anyway:blink: Just a...

    2009 Mk2 Leon facelift.

    I gotta agree, it looks sort of a bit pants! IMHO I don't think they could do a fat lot to improve the look of the current MK2 anyhow, the whole lot flows from front to back, and it looks right from every angle - there isn't too many cars you can say that about is there?:D Cheers Ian
