Been on meds since for Vertigo Steve
Did that happen after a viral infection, such as a sniffle?

I'd never really heard of it until Mrs TB got it, then it turns out its really common!

One of my neighbours I was talking to yesterday has got it as well his started with a ear infection & sniffles so could possibly start from a viral infection, mine started Christmas eve probably because of my sugar  levels going  out of sync as I'm Type 2 Diabetic,so apparently that can start it off as well, I'd given it a month and I had improved slightly but saw my GP & she prescribed the tablets which have been brilliant I've suffered no side effects thankfully I think you can even buy them over the counter.
Glad its under control, as I know the missus struggles with it sometimes.

As I understand it, its something that never really goes away, and the simplest thing can set it off.  Snow tends to set hers off, and also that new trendy TV filming where they have to spin around the subject....
.

In fact I think it started last summer but I didn't take any notice of it, it happened when I bent forward to wind the jockey wheel up on our caravan and that was it until this latest episode,  the worst part for me has been the awful nausea feeling when waking up first thing in the morning, hopefully now I will be able to keep it under control.

With the features switched off, I'd expect no impact of charge level over a few days, as it's only powering alarm, entry system and telematics really.

Been a lurker on Tesla groups, when they were on the short list. There is a 'phantom' drain issue there, but I think it's due to all the cameras and sentry mode etc. Not unheard of for considerable amounts eg 20% of power lost in a week. Other functions like a climate over product to cool if car gets to hot etc are on by default.

So far the i4 is just like a normal car just that the power plant is electric. None of this pointless Tesla style EV extra functions.

when asked about the pictures of Mandy in his pants, his reply was to not be hasty as the events happened over 20 years ago as if that makes it alright >:(
And I'm sure most of Andy Pandy's alleged wrongdoings are older, but the PM is keen to chuck him under the bus....

The code just doesnt delete.
EML goes out when i reset, but comes back next start.

This car hasnt needed much doing to it in reality while ive had it, so blockages building up anywhere are more than possible.
Had a DPF sensor a year or so ago, and that failed charge pipe.

Given that EGR and its cooler needs to come out to get much further, makes sense to look at it first.

Seems to be a commonish fault of Inlet manifolds breaking around a 2nd bolt, having watched vids of both, think egr gubbins counts as a lot of what needs removing to get near it

If you clear the codes do they instantly return, or only when revved/loaded?

The code is saying the MAF is not seeing the weight of air it expects for the engine operating conditions, that is usually as a result of gas getting in/out when it shouldn't (hence the question about the EGR as if it is clogged/stuck shut then the MAF would expect to see less air, if stuck open, then the MAF would expect to see more air, remembering that on a diesel, MAF is open at idle and closes as boost comes on)

I'll also add, I have a sneaky feeling that 90% of all brand new EV's on the road are salary sacrifice deals. Soon as support for that is pulled, no one will be buying them new.

Enjoy your Golden syrup flapjack nibble :y

Biscuit was nice enough, should be a proper meal, that's what BA was always known for. Now it's barely any better than Easyjet.

Flying American in a couple of weeks to the states, interested to compare American/BA Premium Economy. Hope I get their newer setup they have been rolling out.

Bland and boring like all modern Volvos, but as an appliance, they do the job without fuss.

(Not withstanding the soot chuckers have their fair share of issues).

I found the ride a little firm on the S60 (I think) that I nabbed from that joshwyatt geezer for a test drive...  ...though that was ex-plod so might have been beefed up to carry weight.

Sure it wasn’t the old unmarked Milton Keynes TVP S80, OU12 EUJ which Josh acquired?  I have fond memories of a couple of great pursuits in that old tank when I first joined traffic - it was retired a year or so later   :)
Didn't recall it being that big, but it's possible I guess....
The P2 S80 isn't particularly big :-\
I thought the S80 was the largest of the saloons, but could be wrong, as never really paid any attention.
It was, but the P2 S60 is a bit bigger than the P1 S60, the P2 S80 was smaller than the P1 and P3. Not that it matters... And plod used both the S60 and S80s of that generation and unmarked were usually black ;D

Much like trying to tell the difference between the current Mercedes C and E Class saloons ;)
