  1. Modern alternators may even go as low as 11V when needed and told by the ECU. You cannot measure it to diagnose. I went to an alternator shop when my battery went bad to ask them to measure it. They said it would be cheaper to buy a new battery to rule that out, they would need to remove the alternator from the car to diagnose it correctly.

    Accelerator fail

    I don’t know what 55-plate means, but the accelerator assy is a weak part in the first generation Connects. Replacement needed.
  6. You can’t regulate religion. Be it some praying hardware or a dozen air refresheners.
  7. Machine flush was done in 40 minutes for mine.

  13. 0.1 mm not 1 mm. That's literally paper thin. 0.1 mm = 0.0039".
  14. I have never seen a 63.3 mm center bore wheel listed anyhere. 63.4 mm is standard. It will definitely fit. 0.1 mm is letter sheet thickness.
  15. They want to introduce 10 year limit over here.
  16. Why do these particular tires even exist as of 2019.
  17. Here's PCD info and a compatibility list: CLICK
  18. It's been a warm week. The first freezing temps came and went, so I'm reading snow tire tests ?
  19. Can't go wrong with clean looks like this.
