Adios People

It's time to say goodbye as the QQ goes tomorrow. It was a great car to start with, but with constant niggles, then the A/C condenser fiasco and NCS just point plank refusing to talk to me and finally the steering wheel that I can't get straight I think it's time to part company. I'm not even mentio...

Re: New Tyre steering problem!!!!!

So a trip to the garage for Alignment and CodeLink only to find my car doesn't support CodeLink. Seems that only later models support this. I know that despite mine being a 64 plate it was an early build and perhaps kicking around the factory for a while until it was released. Garage said they have ...

Fun...

Re: New Tyre steering problem!!!!!

So it seems there is a final phase to the having the alignment done on a Hunter machine and that is known as CodeLink http://www.honestjohn.co.uk/faq/esp-problems/ I'm pretty certain this wasn't done when mine were re-aligned.

Re: Hunter 4 wheel alignment

Following the fitment of new Nexun tyres on the from of my Tekna I thought everything was ok, but then again not really got chance to use the car much. Now I have used the car a few times on some distance journeys I can confirm the steering wheel isn't as straight as it was prior to the new tyres. I...

Not sure what make/brand/model the new one is as the only marking I can see along the side is heavily obscured apart from &quo...
