    Headlight fuse - 2008 B8

    I have my left Xenon headlight out, so before I go to the dealers, I want to make sure that it's not something simple like a fuse - can I find the fuse listed in the owners manual or inside the fusebox covers? Anyone know if there is one, and where it is? Thanks :)

    Oil Service on 07 2.0T FSi

    Hi all, My car (2.0T FSi) has recently started telling me that it will need an "oil service" - in 1,000 miles. Funny thing is, it's also telling me that 4,000 miles later - it will need a full service. So, I call the dealer and book it in for an oil service - only to be told that my car...

    Can you tell if the car is locked from the keyfob?

    I seem to remember being told or reading somewhere that you can tell if your car is locked (and you are out of range of the car) by pressing the lock button and seeing how the LED flashes... Anyone know? I have tried it but it doesn't seem to be any different between locked and unlocked, so it...

    MFSW controls not responding

    Anyone have an issue with the MFSW controls for next/previous track not responding? Sometimes, I choose next or previous and nothing happens... then a few seconds later the track changes. Or, I'll think that maybe I didnt click it properly and click it again, then it moves 2 tracks. Seems...

    New car paint

    I remember years ago that people said you shouldn't wax a new car for 6 weeks as the paint needs time to fully cure and harden. Is this still recommended?

    Kevin Pietersen - No.1 ODI Ranked

    Mr. Pietersen has reached the world number 1 ranking for one day international cricket. His professionalism to the game and his non defeatist attitude are superb. IMO, he is by FAR the best thing to happen to English cricket for a very long time.

    Is Phantom Black better than Ebony?

    My old 2005SB was Ebony black, and would show every little defect like it was lit up with a neon sign. Is Phantom any better/resilient especially to bird ***** & swirling? I'm also considering Mauritious (sp) Blue as an alternative... Any verdicts?
