According to Takata, the chemicals in the airbags’ explosive charge can...

My DS5, VF7**************[VIN obfuscated, can be read by forum staff] should be eligible for recall, but my vehicle is in China and I cannot find the corresponding service provider. Could you please contact me officially and tell me how to handle this? ????_20251024002629_33_148.png

Disruption to Parts Service

As you may be aware, the consolidation of the old PSA to the Stellantis Group systems has resulted in both a merge of data tools and a requirement to migrate PSA accounts to Stellantis Systems.

This has caused some problems for organisations like ours and the Team are currently looking at the best way forward. This...

Trim Quality

Having found that where I tend to park, when I go to the supermarket, a DS 5 tends to be there around the same time so overall I like what I see.

Although I can't help thinking that given how the Xantia trim has aged more so on the shiny bits, and as the DS 5 has a lot of shiny chrome finish parts on it, what would that look like in the future...

I would tend to agree. I cannot see the trim in my C1 lasting very long and the trim in my daughter's 09 plate Pixo is now quite shabby...

Michelin Tyre Offer

by bobins » 16 Oct 2015, 17:32

First post

Just a heads-up that Michelin are doing their fuel vouchers tyre offer again if anyone is thinking of buying (Michelin) tyres between now and the end of the year.

New BBC program, about the Red Arrows.

Well, I now know what I will (probably) be doing at 21:00 for the next 3 Sundays. Britain's Ultimate Pilots: Inside the RAF . Just watched the first episode, and the Red Arrows had to do 3 displays in 2 days (flying over Buckingham Palace for The Queen's Official Birthday, a display the same day at Biggin Hill (including a flight with 2 Hurricanes...

backstage at Hurn airport last year, the pilots seems to be just out of university, so young (or I'm so so old).

Anybody know of good deals about/offers/discount codes ?

Last post

A friend that works in Tesco has told me that they sell quality oils in the petrol stations at much lower prices than in store. I haven't checked for myself either how cheap or whats available but it may be worth a look.

Trackday with a New Toy

Clio at the track, this time with Racechrono, a 10hz GPS receiver and an ELM 327 module :) 240 track miles in a 10 year old Clio and nothing fell off :)

Track tyres:

Road tyres, and a brief trip onto the gravel at the end:

Ah, brings back memories of the three trackdays I've been to up at Knockhill.

First time was in my Skoda 130GL, which with (unbeknown to me when I bought it) ported head and slightly warm cam and some sticky tyres on the back, where it kept up surprisingly well with its contemporaries. Was especially fun in the afternoon when it rained though -...

Planet Oil....BBC4 9pm

Curious to see what it was about, I watched the first episode on iplayer. As politic discussion is a no-no on this forum. I'll refrain from posting all my thoughts about this but the one thing that really stuck was the professor willfully taking a bath in oil. Is he mad?

I have a wild dream of buying a Russian BMP1 and would love a Research Squad textbook. Its the perfect North Wales vehicle being amphibious you're not bound by the Angelsea bridges plus it has night vision and a loud hailer.

Guys, I am wondering if you guys think it is safe or not driving the car with the drop link totally removed on the passenger side? I don't really want to use the 205 for work tomorrow and have it stinking of fast food. Hopefully the new drop link arrives tomorrow then the problem is solved!

...until it goes wrong. :wink:
We thought that for 5 years with Mums Renault. Its on 98k now and never missed a beat. The system is amazing, every time I drive the Renault I rave about it. A key you don't take out of your pocket is ideal for someone like me. Can't keep them in the ignition these days so I lose them all the time.
