DISASTER STRUCK!
in this potential heat wave england, A CAN OF 7UP EXPLODED inside my car!
It was located INSIDE the armrest, this acted as a oven and then when the can exploded, the pressure BLEW the armrest open! and went literally EVERYWHERE and also left a puddle inside (thankgod it was water tight)
**** IS STICKY...
I have tried lifting the top of the armrest off without using the catch and i cannot do it, it just lifts the armrest completly up so GODKNOWS how it did it.
The can was also a mess as the top had alot of bent aluminium at the explosion point.
you can all laugh now.

It seemed fine - no issues what so ever and the car boosted no problem and felt brilliant!

You're not wrong!! Picked it up and I only have two wheel drive. Its showing a fault with the Haldex. Probably needs a new Haldex clutch pump so its going back in next week!! !The car always wants more!
But not if you wanna do drags / launches.And that is why a DMF is a better choice for every day use
Maybe mine needs to bed in but damn that sound when deaccelerating in gear.Mines silent!
