Re: Wait, is that a van sliding towards me!?, Shiiiiiiii..

Re: Winter GTi's

Its the oil. I did my normal check. Take a round-a-bout flat out and wait to see if the light comes on. :twisted: The horn isn't important. :wink: We didn't have snow on the south coast :( It is when only one of the duel horns broke.
