    TAILGATE DENTS

    Fahad, thanks for the reply,but I thought everyone knew that the bottom half of the tailgate is plastic! So for all who have one, the bottom half of the tourer tailgate is plastic!!! or at least mine is. So this is why I ask is it possible to persuade the dents out with heat? Seems odd that...

    TAILGATE DENTS

    On my tourer, there are two dents in the bottom part of the tailgate. As an ex body repairer/sprayer I know how to fix it using traditional methods, but is there an easy way out with heat maybe? It is not accessible from inside the panel though, many thanks.

    wheels

    Yes, I think I will pass on the 19's,aesthetically I'm happy on 18's with 45 profile tyres, though even they are less smooth than my originals. I bought the 19'' bolas on a whim because they were very inexpensive, but I have a young mate who's just bought an Impreza, he'll love 'em.

    wheels

    Thanks Fahad, the car isn't lowered, it's just that the wheels look to be a bargain pricewise, they're 19x8.5, bigger than I would normally consider so I would hope they don't spoil the ride too much.

    steering pump

    Having just asked my question on the wrong forum, I'll try againo_O. A whining noise has just developed on my power steering pump, I have seen the utube fixes, but is a new pump the only lasting solution? It's a 2009 dtec, thank you, Rod.

    power steering pump

    Hello, my power steering pump has just developed a whine, I've looked on utube and seen the replacing o ring idea, is this a possibility on the dtec engine or should I just change the pump? Thank you, Rod.

    I can see why Fahad says this Nathjkent as I said, when compared the 45 section was same as 17's OEM, but you will have the better acceleration, although wait a minute---no you won't, I've had the remap from Fahad!!!:D

    wheels

    I did obtain some 18's though not concave, tyres are 225/45 which look to give me the same circumference and a little more comfort than 40 section which were actually smaller in diameter than my OEM fitted wheels. I won't be lowering this car as I have with all my previous ones, mainly because I...

    wheels

    Can anyone suggest any concave wheels that fit nicely under the arches of my tourer? Also, recently had a DPF and EGR delete, plus stage 1 remap by Fahad, mpg has risen 5mpg, much more flexible engine, well worth the money!!!

    centre console hdmi and aux points

    What can I do with the hdmi and aux points in my centre console? I plugged in the hdmi to my phone and the"unsupported" message appeared. I believe the aux is for playing music from my phone but at my age all I listen to is classic and radio4o_O. I was hoping I could get something on my sat nav...

    hft language

    I cured it by pressing the i button until the language sign came on. It was already in English, so I scrolled through and came back to English, pressed the speak button, "change to English", and voila! I have it back perfectly. :)

    master cylinder?

    My wife was driving my car yesterday and said that she pressed the brake pedal and it went down to the floor. Fortunately she was only just moving and stopped it with the handbrake. Then, she said the pedal pumped up and behaved normally. Needless to say I went out in it when she returned and...

    Mk7 vs Mk8 Tourer

    Sorry CH, I tend to think collectively when it comes to French, although to be fair, I do like the shape of some of the Peugeots, and I mot'd an estate for a few years that had no problems.
