    Hit a rock, noise from fan

    they look nice although in my case it wouldn't have helped because it was the underside that got damaged. Hoping my temporary fix lasts the 2000km journey home ?

    Hit a rock, noise from fan

    Update: I've partly undone the wheel arch liner and can see the bottom of the radiator has taken a whack and is pushed back towards the wheel. If I shove it forwards the fan stops making the noise. Looks like it's going to be expensive. I'm going to try and pull it forwards and fix with cable...

    Hit a rock, noise from fan

    Currently in Croatia near Trogir, 4 hours from the nearest OPC, I clipped a rock at low speed on our drive which has detached the lower spoiler lip which I have clipped back, but it's pushed back the wheel arch liner. The fan (right hand side) is making a racket, it's hitting something, noise is...

    New front tyres (tires!) for my GTS sport turismo

    Very timely, my fronts are getting near to replacement, I’m about to head from London to Croatia and expect their time will be up when I get back. I’m thinking of getting PS4s to replace the P zeros, might look at Hankook too. Rears are maybe 50% after 9k, have launched the car twice in the year...

    Satin RS wheel paint

    Just christened a wheel rim getting out of the way of an emergency vehicle. Gutted, managed 8 months without a scratch which is 8 months longer than normal for me. Anyone (UK) found a good paint match for the satin black paint on the RS wheels? Looks like an easy DIY fix.

    Recall campaign APB2

    I had my GTS checked this week, haven’t noticed any difference in the PCM (whispers: haven’t had any problems with it anyway). Also had a Macan loaner, it felt ridiculously slow even in Sport Plus with the 20 second boost, when I got back in my car the difference was amazing. I’ve done 5000...

    Heated steering wheel on a GTS

    Pretty sure it was an option when I ordered last year but I discovered the heated steering wheel this morning ? I also got Comfort Access which I didn't order and it's not the trial version.

    Automation to check if car is locked

    Yep but I'm looking for something that will alert me. Used t .have a Tesla and just had to walk away for it to lock, I haven't 100% got out of that mindset.

    Automation to check if car is locked

    Anyone know if there is a way to detect the status of door locking automatically via some automation on my phone? I left my car unlocked last night and someone ransacked the storage bin, nothing lost or damaged. Siri is able to change the colour of ambient lights and a few other things but...

    Why do people want SUVs rather than estate cars?

    As someone who has been on several family holidays in a proper (classic) Mini carrying 4 of us with luggage no I don't need an SUV ? I only got a Sport Turismo because we now have a dog.

    Anyone going to Porsche festival Brand Hatch next week?

    Porsche festival Sunday 3rd Sept at Brands Hatch - Anyone going? I have my tickets, hope to park on the infield. Everything Porsche has a Porsche tax, I was there a few weeks ago for the Mini festival and the tickets were cheaper ?

    Porsche vehicle tracker issues.

    I have had a few trips where the no card message popped up, the last time I had to call them to reset the status which showed up in the app in seconds. Not had the car refuse to start though.

    Freeze date in 1 week - thoughts on GTS spec

    I think everyone that's got a GTS recently has had comfort access for free, I certainly didn't order it but I have it, it appears in function on demand to purchase but I didn't pay for it or start a trial.

    South of Sweden to Baden-Baden and beyond......

    That wasn't the full story! I got an alert that my car had moved and ran to where I parked it and there was a guy who vaguely looked like a traffic warden, then a lifter truck arrived to take another car away. He kindly said I could go in the truck to collect my car. The truck driver was very...

    South of Sweden to Baden-Baden and beyond......

    Be careful where you park in Baden-Baden, I got towed away because I had parked in a space reserved for fire emergencies and the sign was hidden behind bushes! €500 to continue my journey. Parking is quite challenging in that town.
