Re: Main dealer damaged my car

Very strange as Bournemouth look after both my cars and I find them okay especially since they moved to the new facility. However, I would never let any garage wash my car after servicing! Who is your service adviser? Have you emailed a formal complaint to the DP, PM me if you want his direct email....

Re: Soddin’ SatNav.

I use WAZE and find it good and precise it even highlights mobile speed cameras and tels you if you are going over the speed limit. It also warned me that I was aproaching a pot hole. Seems pretty accurate as well. Will be interesting to see how it compares with the one in my new macan. Will probab...

Re: Leaf Blowers for Drying???

I use the Vertool Forced Air Dry 180. It's around £150 and an absolute brilliant bit of kit. My detailer uses one so was a good recommendation. How flexible is the hose ? On some of the cheaper options the hose looks a bit stiff. My cousin has a Blo Air GT , very soft flexible hose but would probab...

Re: Best Drying Cloth for Black Paintwork

Spoiler alert: PPF swirls too, it’s just plastic 😉 The difference is that PPF ‘self repairs’ with a little applied heat or even warm sunlight so swirl marks disappear. Don’t believe the hype Nick. I can testify first hand, it really doesn’t, or at least not to my satisfaction. Mine certainly does o...

Re: Water leak

When mine had the roof drains cleared in November I asked my OPC if they would trim the end of the tubes and remove the non return valves. They said they are not allowed to do that but there is a modification to the bottom of the tubes that they have to do. It was my understanding that it is a sligh...

Re: Macan stolen!

Yep. Many engines (Audi-based?) seem to have sensors that monitor oil condition and indicate when an oil change is advised, which seems often to be before the 2 year/20k mile service intervals. You’re not mad or making it up. ;) 👍 Okay apologies and humble pie, but I am in detailed discussion with ...

Re: Macan stolen!

^^^ This subject has been done to death, but some Porsches DO request an oil change much sooner than the 20k mile or 2 year service interval. Many forum contributors have reported this. I myself have documented several times that my 2017 Panamera 4 required an oil change after 10k miles when that c...
