Should try this too...I have quite dark tint on the rear end and it is quite hard to see :D Actually i am searching for some extra lights to use, it would be nice to have some LED strip lights instead of the rear lower bumper red reflector strips.

Fitted four of these:

Not today, but two weeks ago. It's been damp and wet, but impressed with grip levels so far. Admittedly I'm comparing them to 2 year old Potenza's, which although had a bit of tread left were hopeless. Better curbing protection too.

Fixed now.

For some reason the image file linky thing didn't work. Dont know why, any clues? The image showed on of my shiny new PS4S tyres.

Finally bought a new set of wiper blades in a VW dealer since they were three times more expensive at SEAT for some reason :blink:
Had to settle with 24/16 tho since VW doesn't have any car with 26" blades, but it's ok.

Also took the car for a quick wash for the first time in almost a month

I have Chinese pedal set but cannot complain, very good made and a cannot see the difference in OEMS. Have them nearly 3 years now, no issues...

Essentially here is the steps to take depending on which year of car you have:
- Carbon Navi screen (for cars up to MY2015) Leon 5F,
Information Electrics,
Coding 70
Byte 17
Bit 0 false
Bit 1 true
Reboot the Radio (hold on/off button for 10 seconds)

- For cars from MY2016 or Navi plus, Leon 5F:
Information Electrics,
Coding 07
Byte 17
Bit 0 true
Bit 1 true
Radio reboot (hold on/off button for 10 seconds)

After doing this, my resolution decreased and all icons where big?[/QUOTE]Same with mine my17. I think I reactivated bit 1 and bit 2 was for the carbon screen. On the guide I used it said bit 3 or something and that didn't work so I activated the third bit in the list just as a stab in the dark and by some miracle it worked.

Search for HEYNER Aeroflat Windscreen Wiper Blades 26"16" on Amazon, they were recommended somewhere on here.:)

worked out why my passenger door vibrates from certain bass frequencies. Pull the handle and it stops. I shall be purchasing some clips and a foam rectangle and shall be gluing that to the door card for vibration free music :D

Ah, but that doesn't work when it is the certain frequency in the bass making it make that noise. Was Massive Attack this morning and thankfully I was stopped at lights so pushed and pulled the door. 95% it is fine, just that one frequency that the door doesn't like. Just a bit of foam to push the door away should sort it. Already asked the wife to grab me some clips from work as I am sure I will break one.

Just need to source some foam now. Edit - found some. Cisco switch packing, thanks very much :D
