Inaccurate fuel gauge
Not quite as bad but half full is less than 25 litres. It kind of seems to me like it is ignoring the red (reserve) led light from the measurement. But yes I have noticed the display does not match what is in the tank!- BigD289

Weird Intermittent Creaking
Exactly the same here, mostly over speed humps. Took it to the dealer, they couldn't find anything wrong. He did say it could be the bushes (being stiff). It would be good to know if you actually find out what this is!- BigD289

Autoglym Wheel Cleaner
Just the Custom Wheel Cleaner, works fine. Think the non-custom is acidic which isn't so great for the wheels.- BigD289

Anyone else with a manual selecting reverse instead of first!?
I've done it a few times but I guess I'm a little too heavy handed! Lucky the parking sensors come on to let you know you've got the wrong gear!- BigD289
