I never thought about that. I recall it was something my dad used to do when I was a kid. it makes a great deal of sense.
Thank you for mentioning it.
I didn't even know that was a thing. I do now though. Thank you.
This forum is extremely valuable isn't it?!
My ZS Gen 1 collision control has never activated in over 20,000 miles. In fact I have often worried it isnt working. Not that we drive too close ever, but it has beeped at us a few times.
Do I need cruise control to be on for it to auto activate?
The mud and muck is a camera issue for sure, also on my Volvo V40, so I had a pair of mudflaps fitted to the rear wheels on both cars. I think they were £11 per pair online. Ebay, universal fittings, I never did sus out how the stupid brackets should work so just screwed them into place through...
Yes, I did, but I have a local place who I always use, and it's convenient. I trust them. Yes, I think I do notice a road noise difference - maybe if I had all four done, then it'd be quite obviously quieter.
Thank you for the info. I think the Goodyear Efficient Grip 2 were 135 each. I just changed the front at 21,000, though was was a few more months wear on them maybe.

:)
Thank you this is really helpful. The compromise I guess comes from price difference vs. safety and longevity - bearing in mind wife and kids and a very precious cargo!
So, the front ones look pretty low, though still legal apparently. All this snow this week makes me want to change the front ones now.
Anyone any experience of which type, brand might suit the 2020 EV best. I think grippy in the wet, more important than speed performance,
Any suggestions...
Just as a quick update - the noise went away - so it's not bothering us now.
Very strange - as we did nothing. It's gone from intensely irritating to nothing.
Going back to our previous conversations, I have just discovered what the smelly socks stink is all about...
It starts at start up and goes away within a few minutes.
It's the Screen Washer liquid - cheap B&Q. Simple as that!
So now that the temperatures are rising again, I can begin to use...
2021, Gen 1. 20,00 miles.
It is recent, so with the HVAC on, and comes after we have been driving for a few moments, it stays there for a few minutes then seems to dissipate - I don't think it goes away because we are getting used to it, it's too strong too for that.
My wife says it's a...
I was wondering if anyone else had seen this, after washing, hosing the rear screen?
Took me a bit by surprise.
If there is an opening around the screen (maybe bottom) then it also means noise and damp can enter surely?
