    Dash Cam 3M Adhesive Pad Alternative

    If you mean the NextBase 522GW, then I’ve discovered that it only weighs 127g, so a lightweight compared to a BlackVue dashcam range which I have. These have always been a real challenge to remove after 3-4 years. I would wager a significant sum that the issue is with the NextBase installer...

    Dash Cam 3M Adhesive Pad Alternative

    I’ve never had any issues with dash cams from cheap Viofo to top range BlackVue staying put for many years even in black cars sat in full Sun all year round and I always fit them myself. What NextBase camera is that, as 522g seems rather heavy? I can’t find any weight info for the NextBase...

    Dash Cam 3M Adhesive Pad Alternative

    It won’t be a problem if the glass and mount are cleaned properly, genuine 3M VHB pads are used and the surface of the glass, pad or mount is not touched when fitting.

    General FL 5 (and other models?) range.

    You imply that this is a round trip on the same day, which is perfectly doable with a long stop (say 10-12 hrs) at your destination. However it would be preferable to stop overnight stop then a standard 7kW charger would be the way to go.

    MG HS PHEV Insurance

    That doesn’t answer why people shouldn’t choose the cheapest. BTW The issue with the appalling service had nothing to do with who was at fault, as that was never in question.

    MG HS PHEV Insurance

    Why? If the terms are identical, why pay more for no benefit? The lesser known companies are often owned by more well know companies anyway. You don’t guarantee better service by paying more or choosing a well known company, for example Privilege. I had a collision which was recorded on my...

    Tesco's Podpoints price increase.

    Without telling us what you’re saving on the parking cost it’s impossible for us to know what savings you were making by paying to charge at 28p. What is the length of time you can pay to charge and still be cheaper than charging at home and paying for parking?

    Tesco's Podpoints price increase.

    But you didn’t answer the question by Ruislip Resident as to why you’d pay 28p and not 18p on your off peak tariff.

    Tesla Is Breaking The Law - Do You Care ?.

    And no-one calls EV Nick out for a click bait video? Tesla are currently not breaking any UK law and he admits this himself, just watch ALL of the video and his pinned comment which confirms this. He’s just a stirring @!£% to get views.

    MG4 Rear Brake Discs corroded, 3700 miles in, + bonus other issues

    I know that your issue is severe corrosion, I'm flabbergasted that they'd even entertain doing anything for free with my experience of car dealerships, let alone actually replace them for free. At best I would have thought that they might clean them up & grease where applicable to get them...

    MG4 Rear Brake Discs corroded, 3700 miles in, + bonus other issues

    Thanks for the update. I'm stunned, I never ever come across a dealer that would even consider doing that for free. I've had issues with my Honda e and appalling service, if you can call it that from them from the moment I contacted them to buy it, maybe I should have taken notice of the alarm...

    MG4 Rear Brake Discs corroded, 3700 miles in, + bonus other issues

    Hello, please could you tell us if the dealer charged you for the new rear discs and pads?

    Charging Woes

    🤔 Please explain how you comment relates to my post. It would be nice if you had the decency to actually read my comment and not try and discredit me with some text taken out of context from a report written by a company with skin in the game. I specifically stated 'rapid chargers' & your...

    Charging Woes

    I only use BP Pulse as a last resort because from my own experience very few actually work or as per my last experience take half an hour of repeatedly attempting to connect; Yes, I know why keep trying if it fails the first time but when there isn’t a working alternative within range then I’ve...

    Charging Woes

    Thanks, it’s even worse down here in the SE than I realised 😢, I live in East Hampshire and dread driving East (West is bad but not quite as bad as East) due the lack of working rapid chargers. The impression that I’m getting is that there’s a significant North/South imbalance in not only the...

    Charging Woes

    @DK1083, I can relate to your experience because in Hampshire & Sussex (East & West) their are 2 issues: 1) The majority of rapids are out of action. 2) There are very few in these counties, especially in the central horizontal corridor (e.g. N & S of the A272). Only yesterday I did a round...

    Mg 5 issues

    In regards to the tyre wear, this is typical of worn out shock absorbers (use Google search for ‘tyre cupping’ to confirm). I used to get this issue on cars which had done over 200,000 miles, not 30,000 but did notice that this occurred quicker on certain tyre makes i.e. Avon, with it less...
