dont use your ashtray for pennies!!!!!
« on: 30 April 2007, 13:07:26 »
just thought i would mention a major headache that turned out to be a simple problem.

the air con on my facelft kept cutting out and blowing the fuse, this also stopped the power steerring from working. loacl vx dealer had a look and said they would need it in for a day or so to investigate, so i tought id have a look before laying out a days labour with no garuentte of results. anyway long story short, there was a panny lodged in the fag lighter, causing a short circit that kept blowing the fuse, once removed everything is fine!!

thanks guys

unless like me you often wear trousers without zips and find yourself forever trying to reach all the shrapnel that went down the side of the centre console, and even my fone on many occasions!!

I keep my parking money hidden in a special place after the car has been thrashed by thieves who were after the parking money (and they found it). Sorry, but I can't tell you where I hide it...
