Why does the computer give a higher reading? For my last tankful I got an average of 42mpg but the computer said the average was 46mpg. I think the auxilary heater can use fuel that the computer doesn't count, but it hasn't been on that much recently, and anyway surely that wouldn't account for a 10% difference. I got similar figures for the previous tankful. Chris.

I've just bought a 1 year old Galaxy and it has an annoying rattle from the front passenger seat. The back of the seat seems slightly loose, you can push it backwards and forwards a bit, and the rattle comes from where the back of the seat joins onto the bottom part. I didn't notice it on the test drive because there was always someone sitting in the seat, but noticed it as soon as I drove it on my own. I took it back to the dealer but the technician said he couldn't find anything wrong with it, nothing was faulty or broken. He then said that he checked other 55 reg Galaxy's and some of them had the same problem. I'm amazed at this. I had my previous Galaxy for 10 years and it didn't have any rattles like this till it was about 9 years old. I can't believe it's standard for the seat to rattle like this on 1 year old cars. So, does the front passenger seat on your Galaxy rattle? Chris.

That's great, thanks very much for typing all that Chris. I was looking for a button marked "TA" which would simply turn announcements on or off, like on the radio in my old car. Let's see if I've got this right - there isn't a simple way of turning announcements on or off, you have to go into the control settings and change the TA volume? I don't normally listen to traffic announcements but if traffic is heavy on my way to work I like to turn them on to see what the problem is - I'm not sure I want to fiddle with the control settings while I'm driving along, but it looks like the recorded messages could be useful. Thanks again Chris (another one).

Can't post in the Galaxy forums so I'll try here... I've just bought a 55 reg Galaxy Ghia which has got a sat nav integrated with the radio/cd player. I haven't got a handbook for it and looking through these forums there seem to be different types of sat nav so I'd like to find out which one I've got. It's got a display screen about 4 inches by 3 in the middle which swivels slightly, with the controls around the edge of it. The CD autochanger is in the boot. There are 3 press buttons down each side which select the radio presets, or which CD you want. There are lots of things I can't work out how to do on this, and I'd really like to know how to turn on traffic announcements on the radio? I can't work out anyway to do it. Can anybody tell me which sat nav I've got, and how to turn TA on/off on the radio? Thanks.
