I wasn't aware of that, thanks; I'll have a look...

Yes, I suppose I've answered my own question, there. Just haven't been getting the dashboard messages which confused me. But 18000 miles is 18000 miles whether the car's asking for a service or not. I'll book it in. Thanks, guys...

18K/yr. But it's done over 18K since the last service. If servicing's been set as "Flexible" (up to 18600 miles) surely it should on the count-down to a service now with the associated dashboard messages....

My car asked for its first service after about 9000 miles. It's now done about 27000 miles and hasn't warned me that it should be serviced any time soon. However, I've received a couple of emails from the dealer to say that the car is due (and now overdue) for a service. I suspect this is...

Protecting the wheels and making them 10 times easier to clean.....

Great stuff. I'll have a look. Thanks again

Thanks, X3man. Do you mean the spring mechanism in the end of the hose that's attached to the washer? The one which you attach the two detachable nozzles to shown in the picture (or your foam lance)? It's as if the spring mechanism in the end of this hose (attached to the washer) won't compress...

I'll start.....much easier removal of squashed/dried/baked-on bugs. Over to you...

Thanks, all. I think changing the source sounds like the way to go.

Uh-oh. Doesn't sound promising! It's not just me then.

I've looked in the manual and played with all the gadgetry but still can find no way to change the radio (volume) to default to "off" or at least the last selection it was left (on/off). So every time I start the car, regardless of whether I had the radio on or not when I stopped it and locked...

Thanks. Good to know :icon thumright:

Thanks, cuke2u. That was the thread I started that lead me to buy the Bilberry wheel cleaner. But I hadn't realised it was alkali which is what now concerns me so thought I'd run it passed the keen detailers, too, as you'd suggested. I appreciate your help, though...
