    Default re - shrinking top windscreen moulding

    Before buying a new one (really £50 for a bit of rubber I ask you!) I experimented with stretching my one back to full length (ooh vicar!). It retracted back again after a few weeks and I repeated the process. It hasn't shrunk again so I dare say that if you simply pull it back to length a few times it might be ok? Failing that a small bit of adhesive or double sided tape at either end should stop it shrinking again for no cost.

    when the final list is comiled, perhaps there could be list of DIY/ Dealer fixes at costs so that prospective owners can put all of this in perspective?

    Kevin, I think we seem to have run out of minor common faults s I'll leave it to you to work your magic. Having had a look through, yeah there is maybe a few things on the list but it';s nothing that a little time and patience can't sort out, and nothing really bank-breaking either.

    If you want some more then:


    Horn buttons, a bit fraglie.
    Euro Smile on the rear bumper.
    OEM CD autochanger sticking.

    I spoke with Kowalski about this one ... Remove OEM piece, re-install with strip of alluminium to bolt to and hey presto, smile should be banished. I haven't tried this yet but he certainly has no smile at the rear
