    Washer jets spraying roof?

    they get full of crud and become a bitch to adjust. remove, soak in wd40 or ultrasonic bath, refit and adjust with a pin as you have tried already. which reminds me, i must unblock my drivers side one. See, no mention of tigerseal this time....... damn it.

    Autoglass are fine, they do what they need to and the local to me is a nice chap who knows what he's doing. Just don't watch. Lol

    Foam sticking out under windscreen?

    can't say it's helped with the scratches on my windscreen but it hasn't hurt them either. if you don't have the stuff, water and vinegar in a spray bottle also works to remove rainex.

    Foam sticking out under windscreen?

    rain ex can be removed with autoglym glass polish (don't ask how I know this :) ) push the foam back, you don't need a new winscreen for that. :)

    I'm fairly sure it will just be the park switch contact and nothing else.

    hay, we have all done it. I've flattened mine twice whilst working on it by leaving the keys in the ignition. From the owners manual.

    Water getting in through boot strut bolts.

    remove the dead sealant (but also check the rubber boot above isn't the real reason for the leak). tightening the bolts won't do anything. upol tigerseal is the best stuff. (haven't I said this to you already?), put it on the panel then tighten the bracket back on so it squishes round the...

    Rear wiper malfunction

    the park switch is full of verdigris. you will have to remove the whole wiper assembly, take it apart and clean the switch with contact cleaner. you'll see this comment or similar has been made by me quite a few times recently for different things. this time of year and following the crazy...

    Central locking foible

    Mines a 2007, cc. No idea if it's a normal feature but the headlights stay on when I stop the engine then go off when I open the drivers door.

    Central locking foible

    Open door, jiggle door switch on the door return. Maybe a bit of contact cleaner too. Over winter my headlights stop turning off when I open the door guess the culprit.

    Any advice on removing this?

    Got a new lesson today, using aside down can of spray air to freeze the epoxy then a gentle tap saw it break apart. Was rather impressed by how well it worked. Suggested it might work better with a tin of pipe freeze.

    Chippower gs2

    if it seems to good to be true............. looks like a rip off of the racechip S or RS unit, which is a 200 note unit. there is quite a high possibility that for this price it's a fancy box with a resistor in it, if I was going down this route I'd be looking to the established makers...

    Any advice on removing this?

    Doesn't need to melt it just warm it enough to delamination from the steel. It might blister the paint I'm afraid. Acetone is the other option. Would need to be stronger solution than nail polish remover but it might be worth a try with a dribble if you have any laying around. Protect...

    Any advice on removing this?

    Heat. Hair dryer might be enough but a hot air gun would be better. Then scrappy scrape scrape.

    Your order is fine. But if its behind the lights (not seen) you could seal over the paint.

    5 door seat tilt?

    Would you mind sliding your seats forwards and looking at the very base on the back of the seat for me? perhaps with a few pictures? Almost every 5 door car I've had the privileged (yer right) of working on, that also came in a 3 door variant used the same seat frames, they just left the lever...
