Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Chaps After getting my baby back from the garage where it had its dry starter motor swapped out for a new one, it needed a wash as she had a few greasy finger prints. I decided to pop out the side repeater and see what it was like behind them.... ... it was bad. I cleaned up then popped the repeaters back on and the look 100 times better.
