Hi guys,
I went to open my car this morning and the indicators flashed but none of the doors/boot opened. The alarm is working but even using the key doesn't prompt the central locking and just opens the drivers door.
Is it likely to be the central locking pump that's failed? Where is it...
Short answer: Yes
I only ever use Tesco99 as I see it as 'cleaner' fuel. A lot of people here run their A3's & S3's on vpower and most cars are remapped on higher octane fuels such as Tesco99 & V Power. I believe a well known mag ran tests of all higher octane fuels and V Power came top of...
I can't see there being a problem lowering by 20mm, more dependent on the size and offset of your alloys. Mines lowered more than that and have 18" TT Quattro Sport alloys, no problem at all with the ride.
