  4. If you ever have to use the GUNK, it can be cleaned out of the tyre with warm soapy water, dont let a tyre fitter tell you it cant be removed, it just takes them longer to repair the tyre, i actually contacted Coninental (CONTI) about their tyre repair kit and that is what they told me,
  5. Hi there, i started a topic ages ago about replacing runflats to XL tyres, which i did, i replaced my runflats with BAurum XL tyres from National tyres, great price and great tyre around
  6. take it to a garage and get it fixed, its so obvious
  7. A friend eh lol...we all know its you lol
  8. get it straight back to the ford dealers, your warranty only seems to be just over, they just might fix it for free
  9. the centre seatbelt has two catches coming from the roof, are you putting the corect one into the seatbelt on the seat, try switching them around
  10. good tyres but soft and wear down quite quickly]
  11. [ Well there you go then, if you know they can take H ratings and you got V ratings on your car ...what else do you need to know
  12. ] If you got 98w on your gal then keep that load rating on...silly question to ask really
  13. [All galaxies come with XL tyres the runflats are an optional extra, xl tyres are tyres that are put on heavy vehicles and have an extra load hence XL, runflats are xl tyres but also if they get a puncture you can run them for around 50miles at 40mph to a garage but they cant be fixed, just replaced. there is more choice of XL tyres and are standard issue on gals and can be punctures can be fixed, they make financial sense
  14. [ive had mine for a year now, and no probs what so ever, 48-49 mpg on runs at 70-75 mph, i must of got a good one lol
  15. [i went to national tyres and put on BARUM BRAVAURIS XL 17inch 225x50x17xl (tyreshopper sell them cheaper and national put them on, but i needed them in a hurry)they got a good review, since i got them on i have increased the front pressure to 38 and the back to 35psi the mpg has gone up from 43-44 mpg to 48-49 mpg and ride is better. if you go on the national tyre website there is a 50% voucher for tyre tracking which costs
  16. Just how accurate are these gauges? garage ones and home ones must be out a bit
  17. I got a detachable towbar fitted around
  18. Hi all, Just how accurate are the psi readings on the tyre pressure monitor systems, do i need to buy an external tyre pressure gauge to double check, (but then how accurate are those ones as well???)
  19. No way am i going to spend
  20. Yeah 17inch runflats and got pressure monitor, i have changed runflats to XL tyres and pressure monitor still works
  21. Hi. I actually sent an email to conti about the tyre weld repair and they too told me that it DOES NOT ruin the tyre just needs washing out with warm soapy water, garages just dont like to spend the extra time to clean them out, I bought a puncture repair kit from ebay called STOPANDGO brilliant product and used it on the car it is a mushroom head plug that seals the hole pefectly.
  22. Hi all, got a dilemma..i bought my 2009 zetec galaxy from ford direct, it had a tyre and alloy upgrade from 16 inch to 17 inch, is it correct that the zetec comes new with 16 inch xl tyres and not the runflats, my upgrade has the runflats and at
  23. well i dont think 32.7 is as good as my 43 mpg, how can that make you happy
