    Annoying Rattle from Rear, Ideas ?

    I have thought it might be something to do with the seats or even the parcel shelf, but it's still there when I have been out without the parcel shelf. I cant find any way to adjust the rear seats, but I think it's def in the RH rear passenger "door card" area, even though it's a 3dr.

    When should I stick my winter tyres on ?

    Just an info probing question, I've bought some snow tyres for the winter, but as we have not had a good frost yet I'm a bit reluctent to stick them on at the moment and wear them out in the mild weather. They are meant to work from +7c and with the weather taking a turn for the worst this...
