FWIW I had similar, outside shoulders on 20" Bridgestone Dueller RFT fronts wearing away.  I had mine changed as per the attached image http://i67.tinypic.com/6hrz8l.jpg and have managed 15,000 miles with even wear since. I think the main change was to get that third setting (toe) as close to 0...

[quote="MarkG_M50d"] Yes, wash myself with recommended products, grit guard and lambs wool mit. I tell you what l, it's a big bugger! [/quote] Had my E70 detailed and now wash it myself.  Along with the local use Yaris it's taking over 4 hours.  That doesn't include glass, wheels or interi...

[quote="rj1986"] Digging this up - how did you route the cable? [/quote] I had my install done by Chameleon.  The guy extended the wiring and took it across the top over the drivers side doors.  Unfortunately I did not check exactly where he hardwired it to and my Thinkware F770 does give ...

Noticed th...

Bump, does anyone have a copy of the oil service receipt so we can confirm which of the filters are replaced in the oil and filter service... For an oil service I have been quoted £275 with the microfilter £180 for just oil Parts dept have quoted for 2 filters... £85 64.11.9.248.294 £25 64.21.9.194....

Found it very difficult to negotiate for anything after I'd put the deposit down on mine.  I suggested one of these little ride-ons to cheer up my 20 month old who would be coming to pick the car up with me but didn't even get that.  Stupidly assumed they'd clear the 2 big marks in the protection fi...

Thanks.

So I have a Dec 2012 x40d.  Is it worth me blanking these off as well?
