just hope they get a good match as a different colour door is going to stand out a mile

you shouldn't have to pay excess if you are claiming against their insurance

I agree, I shouldn't have to pay my excess, but I do agree with other people that as soon as an insurance company get wind that ...

I would attempt to avoid insurance if you can. Any thing so much as a call to them to discuss a claim regardless of fault will put up your premium for next year. If you can resolve it without going down that route it would be better

cheers Alex, took it to bodyshop today for a quote £250 for door ...

Wow, that's horrendous! How hard did they bash it? Hope you go their reg info.

I can't advise too much, but as this is on a crease line, it might not be good news.

Tell me about it! The more I think about the more frustrated I get, I would have been calmer if they just gave me their details and ...

Unfortunately my polos passenger door was hit in the car park tonight (door swung open into it), nothing to major but has dented the door on the crease line.

Actually happened to be sitting in the car at the time, the party involved just walked off and said "sorry" dealing with that separately ...

I've also got a 65 plate bluegt that has started "hissing" and "gurgling" the past few weeks. Like Chrisshorter mine is still Ice cold, but the noise is driving me mad. It's due a oil service soon so will get it checked. Hope it's not a fault, and that a regas will make it quieter again :)

Hi All,

Looking to change the dull "Yellow" interior lights in my BlueGT to some White LED ones. Does anyone know what type of bulbs are required for the front and rear fittings & how to get the fittings out (I haven't looked... yet).

Any advice greatfully received.

Thanks

Thanks for the response. Appreciated

Hi all

Has anyone had the GVN60 Kenwood Sat nav installed? If so do you know where it is located under the dashboard. I know it's under it somewhere but can't find it to do a firmware update on.

Any advice appreciated.

Couldn't agree more with the above, I went from a 1.4 SEL to a BlueGT still brings a smile to my face everyday. I also find that I save money on fuel due to the ACT and better economy. If you've got the option go for it

Hi all

Thanks for all your input, the issue is resolved now, dealer found that one of the sensor plugs had Broken slightly causing it to run rich.

Clip replaced and economy back up to mid 50's

Thanks again

Thanks for all your comments much appreciated. Slight development on the BGT, went to start it this morning and on comes the engine management light. Booked into dealers tomorrow for them to sort it out, service advisor reckons lambda or O2 sensor making it run too rich on fuel. Will post when I ...

It has been quite cold for the past couple of months or so. I've mainly noticed the drop in the past couple of week, the temperature has been slightly warmer in the last week or so than it has been.

I've checked all the tyre pressures all of which are fine, it's recently had a dealer service etc. I can't find ...
