Thanks for the swift action mum

Unfortunately he never got back to me

I've just realised that this rather expensive new vehicle has something that our cheapo Punto came with. A Spare Bulb Kit. Does anyone know of a reasonably cheap kit, preferably in a high street shop/garage/suprmarket rather than mail order (Bulbs being thrust through a letter box and hitting the floor doesn't sound like a good option)

I can only refer to all models but the latest - the fold forward like the MKI & II Galaxys. There may well be a later model Sharan which I've not seen yet but late last year the seating hadn't changed on the Sharan but the Galaxy now has seats that fold fairly flat to the floor

Thanks for the clarification

Is fuel taxed by % ? If so, and say that % is 100% (I haven't a clue what % so could anneone confirm the correct figure? All maths below based on 100%) for each 2p that the suppliers add per litre the taxman gains 2p The taxes were calculated prior to the huge price increases so the taxman doesn't need the extra 2p If they change the tax to so many p per litre then the increases would halve. Do you reckon we could get the taxman 2p off?

Thanks

I thought that too so had them check it out and yes it it functioning correctly - It's only the damping it adjusts and it makes very little difference unless you hit a speed bump and you can tell it's working as you hit the other side - Well that's what they told me so I hope they haven't screwed my suspension altogether now.

Fair comment but I think you can only select options on new cars and you can only order an MKIII so yes I'm referring to an MKIII Wibble - the proud owner of an MKI and an MKIII (Is that better? :P )

Or buy a couple of metres of black cloth and a some wooden sticks. I've always had a problem with what to do when all seats are out/folded and I want luggage in the middle seating area hidden. Now got an MKIII and bought the above. I already have the window blind cover. It helps that the rear windows are black but you can still see in Folded one edge (yes edge - the space is wider than the width of standard cloth) around the wood (it's about 1.5" by 0.5" by 4'6"). That end sits on top of the blind held in place by the ridge. Folded the other edge of the cloth over and got my wife to stitch it. Threaded another piece of wood through. Stitched a couple of lengths of ribbon and tied these to the front headrests. I made a mistake and should have ensured the cloth also reached from headrest to floor so people peerin through the windscreen just see black between the seats rather than the light grey of the boxes I was carrying. Soon solved though. My

I used to hook my foot under the accelerator and pull it up. It worked but I shouldn't have had to do it

If anyone is thinking about getting the optional variable suspension (as apart from the self levelling which I know nothing about) DON'T!!!!!!!!!!! Apparently there is a difference between smooth, normal and sport but for the life of me I can't tell a difference & neither can my other half. What a waste of money that was!!

I have the DVD case and don't remember (could be my memory) an upgrade voucher but I believe I already have the latest DVD. Can you post a copy of the instructions on here as those were definitely not in the DVD case?

I have te manual parking brake as both my wife and I were tiwtchy about the auto brake failing. I do however seem to have all the bits operational apart from the button. I have "hill start assist" (which comes with one of the options) which puts the brake on if you are on a slight incline. I'll see if I can find your question as I may still have an answer.

So why couldn't the Ford dealer offer me this after they had chased Ford UK head office to get me the satnav manual I'm still wondering how to reload the satnav DVD myself rather than payng a garage to do it. I'd also like to add my own POI files as they don't give an option for this and, for me, their choice of POIs is very limited.
