I had two fitted a couple of weeks ago by a fairly expensive fitter for £280 all in... Added - sorry they are Dunlops - that's why!

There isn't a workshop manual available unfortunately. I don't know how to replace the bulb but when you find out I'd love to know - take some photos!

Yes the Mk3 looks and is great - the rear seats in the s-max are very small!

This is a basic photo guide on how to remove a 2nd generation Sony head unit and in my case install a Nokia CK100 bluetooth hands free kit. I used a SOT092S adapter so the Nokia ISO cable would fit to the cars Quadlock connection. Step one - carefully prise the wood trim from the dash using a hard plastic tool. http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4108/5001448722_719041cef0_b.jpg Step two - carefully prise the lower trim away. http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4104/5000847943_6d5c5c4423_b.jpg Step three - remove the torx screws and remove the upper trim to reaveal the head unit torx screws. http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4133/5000847857_e67e9f4954_b.jpg Step four - fit CK100 and loom - I fixed mine here with a zip tie. http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4091/5001448630_3e61c57b21_b.jpg Step five - reinstall everything.

I posted this a few weeks ago for this exact problem - it tells you what you need to know... Removing a 2nd Gen Sony

Yes, I do like them a lot and I know they work on a movement sensor basis but they do sometimes have a mind of their own. I am also very mindful that I must have them deactived in frost...

I've had my 2.0 TDCi for a month and got 49mpg doing long journeys - I confirmed this when I refilled the tank. More recently I have been getting 44mpg, not driving very carefully and doing short journeys fast. I have an early 2008 model so the official mpg is around 35 - 53mpg so I'm doing okay. The newer model 2.0 does around 3mpg more but the 0-60 is a whopping 0.1 second slower!

Thanks for the tip - I assumed the sensitivity control was just for manual...

Is it normal for the auto wipers to be a bit crazy on Fords? Go very fast when there's little rain then infrequently when you want them faster... Not a big complaint but wonder if that's just how they are?

I can confirm that my wifes iPhone streams with the Galaxy and my HTC does not.

Not 100% - it seems worse at lower speeds and almost pulses... Any way that I could tell? New tyre would be much more preferable to a new hub or two!

Thanks for the reply. The dealer route wasn't going to be easy so I paid

One of the rear wheels on my Mk3 has a noisy bearing - I assume this is not covered by the warranty? If it's not is there any way of avoiding having to buy the

Yes the previous owner said 'we've just topped up the air con' - at which I thought I've never had to top up the air con especially not on a 2 year old car! Anyhow it seems to work okay at the mo!

Kebrina - the 2.8 is a lovely sounding engine!
