    Modifications

    there is one behind the door lever (inside), there is one more in the little "ash tray". both are under a cover, you can see where the screwe driver needs to place to pop that opens. One is a philip screw, the other is a hexagon bolt that need a 10mm socket. There are a few plastic clips along...

    Tyre pressure warning light

    i only had mine since May. so far i found the tyre pressure monitoring is off by as much as 3psi in hotter weather (we had 30-35degC in London this summer) but now the weather is hovering around 10-20degC, it's matching my calibrated guage again (i have one at work). in summer the air pressure...

    MG3 Hybrid Service Manual

    nice! just booked mine. 189 inc VAT with MG Shepperton. it's strange though, if you use their online system, it will be 249 inc VAT where as calling them directly to book is 189 inc VAT. i will report back if that is the exact amount i end up paying.

    Important Questions before receiving MG3 Hybrid Luxury?

    although 19x bhp sounds nice, but we have to remember this car also weigh 1.4+ tonnes. it wasnt that long ago a full size saloon/sadan weigh this much, so bhp per tonne is not as high as it seems. Also, all 19X bhp is only avaliable if you are at the right speed. the motor themself is only in...

    Modifications

    Juddering Wipers

    my past experience is bosch does a better job when they are new. better fit and better wipe, but doesnt last as long as michelin's. Michelin is always avaliable in costco, so thumbs up from me. Rain X seems to only last about 2 weeks for me. i now use Meguiars glass polish and sealant. seems...
