Re: Detailing Problems

Late contribution to this thread, I know. But I had juddering wipers (front and back) in my Macan myself. I suspected that it might be the Gtechniq window treatment (professionally applied as part of Pro-detailing from new) that caused it, and resigned myself to cleaning the coating off, which would...

Tidal and CarPlay

Well - I can answer my own question now. Tidal: Yes - you can play this. I plug the iPhone into the USB connection under the armrest, which means it will use the inbuilt aerial - a big advantage in trying to retain reception for streaming. Then when you start to play Tidal tracks on the iPhone it pl...

Well - it's arrived! Looking a little (a lot) less shiny now with all the rain than it did on Wednesday. It's certainly no disappointment - quality feel to everything. But working through the manual is going to take a while, especially all the media/wifi/phone connection options. No chance to try ou...

I currently have 20" on my XF and have to agree they give a harder ride than my previous XF on 18" ones. The 20" wheels on my XF came as part of an active suspension package on the 3.0D S. They had a 30/35 profile. Actually on the whole I thought the active suspension worked pretty well, on the moto...

Ah - Ok - the ones I looked at on Google were only two bar. These 3 bar wheels are .... quite similar!

I spent quite a lot of time thinking about selecting those wheels on my order. You don't see many Macans with them but I really like them. I think they come from the Q5 and every time I see a Q5 pulling out with those wheels, I always think they look smart. I hadn't picked up on that, so obviously t...

Yes - OPC are Portsmouth Porsche and were very good about it, also about having to keep it indoors between detailing and when I can pick it up. You might say, so they should be at the price, but you can't take this sort of thing for granted and I definitely appreciate their 'no problem' attitude. An...

Newbie in Hampshire

Well - I take delivery this week - the months of waiting nearly at an end. On Pro-detailing, in the end I thought that rather than go through the dealer I'd go to a specialist, and ended up picking Concours Detailing from near Wokingham. They (well, he - Bradley Griffin does it all) use Kamikaze En...
