Anyone famous?

Anyone famous?

Not that I'm aware of, taking it for a tyre repair and a new tyre for mine whilst I'm at it. Lifestyles of the rich and famous it isn't

Yeah, my job feels like that, blagged a trip to Leicester tomorrow for a Managers "Seminar" after winning an award. Apparently it's a top time at the bar, and dinner at Leicester Tigers ground. I'm not even a Manager... Ha...

The wipers didn't work this morning and I am assuming it is a fuse that has blown. Does anybody know which fuse number will be the guilty party and are there spare fuses in the fuse box. Many thanks

Just installed new Brembo pads at the front. Cheap as you like, easy to install, improved braking with better pedal feel. 33.50€ from Amazon.fr. What's not to like ?

When you open the fuse panel at the end of the dash , there should be a fuse chart in there (if it's not in the in car manual )

My Wipers are a bit random at times. I don't like the Auto position cause even though it's not raining they will still randomly sweep the screen . Maybe a sensor fault? Even hard rain, they may 'pause' for a second just to see if you are still awake.

In my experience fuses rarely go for no reason, I'd be checking that the mechanism is free to move and that the motor hasn't failed because the mechanism is stiff.

So managed yesterday after a quick visit to Halfords
To top up and add screen wash
Replace a number plate bulb as light on the dash was winding me up
Download the Car Scanner engine check app on to stereo

Now I can see fuel consumption etc as my car don’t have a mini computer that I know off
Today need to reset the service counter
Tomorrow heading down to fleet in Hampshire to play in the Fullers golf day give me a chance to give it a bit of a motorway run

They can be a bit erratic sometimes , if that was my symptoms , I would give the screen a very good clean and if that didint work I would change the blades .

He’s not bad. He’s only drawn that way.

I think I saw you Craig on Saturday morning coming out of the service station on the A45 and heading up towards Raunds.
You obliviously didn't recognise me...............from my picture

If he was in the CL the petrol station is his second home!

I'm not sure if I filled up on Saturday morning- I thought I filled up on Friday, I do actually use that filling station though- but there IS another silver CL500 215 around that area though.

Replaced both front indicator bulbs yesterday morning. Osram silvervision type, dead easy, now they look as classy as Ron Burgundy.

It must be faulty.....

So I thought too. The bulbs removed are the original production, PY21W with orange cel wrapped around the glass ampoule. I've not seen them like that in years & years!
