Thanks for that - I know the headlights on my old P Reg were particularly dim on dipped beams. Have not driven the new beast in the dark yet, but will defineitely think about the uprated bulbs. My Bro has HIDs on his CDX and is very pleased with the output!
btw, I changed the engine oil on Friday evening, just hit 45k, following the dealer service at 40k - like many on here, I do not really see the point of 20k or even 10k between changes, when it is such a simple job. The parts guy at the local Vx dealer even gave me trade discount on the oil and filter
. However, it took me about twice as long as it should have done because the previous dealer's monkey must have used his big bar to tighten up the sump plug and the filter. I needed foot power on an extension bar to undo the sump plug (luckily no distortion on the sump) and a pair of stilsons to loosen off the filter - what do they teach them these days?
