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

Disruption to Parts Service

Windscreen Wash

by RichardW » 28 Jan 2005, 13:21

First post

Get some of Clearalex crystals or tablets (you can get them in Halfrauds). I have no idea what's in them, but it is unsurpassed for keeping windscreens clean. Takes a while to cut through the gunge initially but it gets there. Add some meths to the washers to stop them freezing (or some other screenwash additive if you don't like the smell!).

Last post

Where oh where can I get some decent screenwash?
Years ago I used to use Flash Liquid and the screen sparkled. Then they changed it and its as crap as everything else now, a nice film of traffic gunge smeared across the screen.

Hi!
I hope i'm not re-posting a topic, but i noticed in a film (Team America - world police) that a lovely large scale DS model appears twice at the beggining of the movie.
Now, for the second topic subject:
Have you seen the Pug 407 commercial with those paper/toy cars?
I was told that some (if not most) of the cars appearing are DS, but haven't...

Following on in similar vein, one story from my garage days, we had an old woman who brought her car in with a knocking noise on the driver’s side. After several road tests, we could not find the fault and returned the car. She immediately returned the car complaining no work had been done as the fault was still there. We road tested the car with...

They've developed similar things for cyclists, but the trouble is I don't know whether I'm coming or going!!

Last post

Check out this new different crash helmet on this site:-

Click on the Reevu product.
I like the idea, and in a review I read it was praised, for it's clever new way of overcoming the problem of poor rearward vision.
Only thing is this can't be cheap !
Although to enable a rider to see so much more around them is a great safety benefit.

Going to France

by Dave Bamber » 25 Jan 2005, 05:20

First post

It costs me about £40 to get to the Spanish border in the Alps, it's a chunk, but the motorways are so much quieter that the UK. You take a ticket at the start of the toll section, and pay at the other end. All booths are on the LHS, except at Calias, easy if you have a passenger, pain if you are solo.
You can keep to a steady 80/90mph with no...

There is a Saab section of this forum but it does not have the traffic of the French section. Last post appears to have been September. Maybe they are fair weather posters...

no its OK I'm not going over to Saab, although they seem to engender the same feelings of loyalty that Cits do, certainly amongst the older variants. Anyway, does anyone know of a similar forum to this for Saabs especially the 900/9000 series? I've tried the owners club website but the forum is only available for viewing and the last post was...

5 litre purchase swizz

by vanny » 23 Jan 2005, 22:18

First post

cos when your running a fleet of turcks and the fuel bill is for millions of litres then theres a rather large difference in cost between 80ppl and 81ppl! And it gives boring people something to do 'Oh look the Esso is only 80.8, i'll go there instead of the local shell at 80.9'

Last post

In another topic I asked what happens if you buy exactly 5 litres of fuel - well, I did and the answer is you get charged .5p more than value.
Pump registers exactly 5 litres but price at £0.809 is then £4.045 but pump shows £4.05 OK so the 'error' only happens once but being a pedantic sod where money is concerned why don't they just drop the...
