Finally found why my washer jets were just dribbling - non-return valve had turned into a no-flow valve...


Pulled the innards of the valve out and now have working jets, until my new valve arrives - now I can get her in for an MoT...

I'm using Waze (with stereo tethered to my phone for data - otherwise it seems to crash a lot), Google Maps is ok, but again needs a good data connection to work well - but usually hangs at a critical point in the journey causing me to miss a turning or junction...


The built in i-go sat nav is ok too - except for the annoying camera warnings that I can't seem to turn off...

The only ones I've found on eBay have Allen heads - 'race' versions, not cheap.

Another thing I might try is plastic cover caps to see if they stop bolt heads rusting - the toe-in adjuster bracket bolts for starters.

Talking of bolts, I replaced the ZTT rear bulb today on the tourer and guess what happened ? Yes, the bolt dropped into the depths of the bumper.

Anybody got a link for a new set of screws/bolts ? What size are they ?

I use Sygic and get on with it quite well but i have google maps installed by default. Dowloaded the largest size offline map i could of the area and it's been pretty stable. I use Sygic for longer distance runs purely as it has the whole country maps installed so no need to tether my phone.

Sally Sygic always seems to take me down tiny back roads in Norfolk and Suffolk covered with grass and tractors.🤔🤔
