I like to have a quick look at the forum before breakfast!
I'll maybe pop over to Halfords later although I still sting from the £40 parking charge I got from parking there.

| I noticed a small chip in the lacquer on one of my GS alloys. There is no damage to the wheel just this small chip. Is there anything I can touch it up with to stop corrosion? |

| Okay, I should have said a more accurate indicator like every other car I have owned, including the two FL1s which would go down to the bottom of the gauge when on a long run. |

Hi guys
Thanks for the replies. What I'm really getting at is that it took nearly 65 litres to fill a 68 litre tank leaving only 3 litres left. Now however you look at it, a quarter tank, 90 miles ... |

Out of all the cars I have owned, 40 plus, the fuel gauge has never been this far out, in fact most have read lower not higher.
