Welcome back to the VXOC FORUM.
Sorry for our lack of support over the last year but MYBB is back and so are we.
Let's get the forum buzzing again... (March 25, 2022)x

Not thought of that. It snapped off the roof and tore off the lining. Can easily glue bottom part to lining. What would you use for getting the clip back on roof?
Was having a look to see how to remove ariel, not much room.
After reading a thread on here ive seen there are various options available. What's the most suited rear view mirror cover for my car? I'm planning on getting a tinting company to apply some film to the windscreen to hide the wiring from the outside so don't want anything to big if I can help it.
there are studs on the glass that fix the backing plate in position
and it will look crap if you just glue it on unless you can tint the shape on the glass
i tried and gave up

Ok so car is out of the Shop and looking good again.
Drive it Home and it was fine. When is tried to start it a few hours later it wouldn start. Rook te key out and in and it starter Fin, but it was lacking Power.
I detached the batery and te Orange Check engine licht was gone. Friend of Mine Read the fault codes and it was p1683. Not sure what it is though.
Is it Safe to Drive? Any advice? Had my car fixed at a independed garage
Permanent code and Drove Fine after detaching the batery btw.
Found this on the Web for you. Not 100% myself. Are you sure the code you've been given is right as I found it hard to find any information on that code, which in itself is strange

hmmm, might have been p1682 could be my mistake. i'll check with my buddy to see if he remembers
p1682 makes sense: Ignition 1 Switch Circuit 2.
as it would not start. It this coincidence that it happend after the repair? Becaus right after the collision the car started fine also when driving it up to the tow-truck. and i started it a few times when my mate towed me to get to another garage (the brake pedal was really hard so i has to start it for a short time)
i already had to go back 10 min after i got the car back as the window sprinkelers were not working, and they had to repace a fuse.
I seems to me they made short circuit.
I'm sorry for my english, i don't know the words you use for these problems
i'm still goining to use it this weekend as it drove fine just now, so i don't thing there is anything major broken (i.e turbo/intercooler)
Hi, I've got an intermittent SVS message coming up, had codes read at our local garage and they have come back with fault code # P0673 Cylinder 3 glow plug. Do you have a part number for the glow plug in question and is it something best left to a garage to fit, we were quoted around £73 for the part.

I found the part number (55579436), if there are 4 glow plugs, are they all the same in the 2.0cdti, all with pressure sensors or are there some without pressure sensors (55564162)
i think the ecoflex engines have the pressure sensors and the standard 2.0cdti does not
but check with any dealer first just give them your reg and ask for glow plug part numbers
