Re: Door wont unlock

So I think the problem was a sudden drop in temperature, because now when we got a few +degrees the door works fine.

Re: Removing front grilles?

Ahh, let us know how you get on? My nearside is also coming away slightly.. I'm guessing the DRL comes out with the grille The DRL is attached to the front bumper. it will not come off with the grill. but the grill goes all the way around the DRL so be careful when you remove it. that is the only p...

Re: 2 months in rusty brake discs!

Also iron is cheeper then other materials that could sustain the temperatures involved. Iron rusts quickly, but its only a thin coat which will...
