• Pavement parking and threatening behaviour! 18 Jul 2012 (Forum)
  and the driver, a gentleman in his late 50's, got out shouting abuse and pushing me for bashing into his car. Quite scary especially as this was in front of my 6 year old.

• Skoda Fabia - Water leaks on Skoda Fabia. 25 Apr 2011 (Forum)
  damage, it fell on deaf ears. Seems to me if you are going to cure this problem by re-sealing the bottom of the doof seal, you are only trapping the water in the door panel and causing more moisture to corrode the panel. If you see lots of little bubbles along the top of the door, it;s too late. You;ve

  - connect a lead, press a couple of buttons and job done, but apparently the software is only available to Peugeot dealers so - once again - it's a captive market If you dont have it done then every journey starts with a warning that there is a TPI missing. So that;s your choice - £110 extra per TPI
