On mine all the parking sensor gubbins is behind the passenger side boot trim panel. Sent from my VFD 710 using Tapatalk -

Is it the key sensor for the keyless entry? -

Mine is a 13, no g force reading. So it can't be that. Sent from my VFD 710 using Tapatalk -

Mine has it. I've no idea what it is though. Sure everything works? Sent from my VFD 710 using Tapatalk -
Let's hope they tear their licence up then. Sent from my VFD 710 using Tapatalk

I use Fuelly to track my mpg. Over 10k miles mine has done approx 35mpg. Sent from my VFD 710 using Tapatalk

I use a puck with a groove in it on my trolley jack. Bought it when I had my rcz, as the jacking points on those are made of cheese. Irrespective of what jack you're using, I hope you're putting axle stands under it before you venture underneath. Sent from my VFD 710 using Tapatalk

I have mine capped with the 12v socket cap from the glovebox, I have a dash camera plugged in to it so the cap was redundant anyway.

Quite a few cars have them. My rcz did. Sent from my VFD 710 using Tapatalk

Recall issued on cars to have valve springs replaced 2012-2013

Mine has dropped slightly but I'm putting that down to the time of year last two tanks 33.9 and 34.2 So maybe I was unduly concerned. Also new grippier tyres will have a small effect. Maybe. Sent from my VFD 710 using Tapatalk -
My rcz used to pop out of second sometimes, one of the reasons I binned it off. Sent from my VFD 710 using Tapatalk

Ah, mismatched tyres are a pet hate of mine. Sent from my VFD 710 using Tapatalk

I'm happy with mine on a motorway. It's sits happily thrumming away for hours. Sent from my VFD 710 using Tapatalk

I have Hankook Ventus V12 Evo 2 in stock size, they're a lot, lot more confidence inspiring than Primacies. Downside is you do have to give it some to break traction. Sent from my VFD 710 using Tapatalk

Mine was at 25k and 6 years when I changed the Primacies. They had life left but had started to perish. Sent from my VFD 710 using Tapatalk

Recall issued on cars to have valve springs replaced 2012-2013

I might be worrying overly here, but has anyone seen a dip in economy since their recall? Mines been averaging 34/35 since I've had it, this tank (first since recall) I reckon I'll be lucky to scrape 30. I'm at 188 miles and well below half, even the mpg readout which I don't use only reads 32. Usually get around 300 plus or minus a handful. Same usage as usual. Sent from my VFD 710 using Tapatalk -

Mine took 11! Apparently the third they'd done.. I'm thinking they hadn't ordered the parts before getting it in to work on. -

What's been the average dealers have had people's cars for to do the recall? -
I rebuilt our rear wall after it got damaged. All 12 foot and 11 courses of it.

My Dad has, buts it's covered in a thick lead sheet and 30 years of accumulated junk! Sent from my VFD 710 using Tapatalk
