I use pigeon spikes where they used to perch - also very effective.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

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

  • PistonHeads: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

My 981 is drawing some unwanted attention from the birds. It seems to be a magnet for bird s t. I keep some baby wipes in the car, but wonder if anyone has a better alternative?

It may be worth looking at proper preparation and then application of a suitable Gtechniq nano coating. I had Gtechniq applied with a top coat of Gtechniq Crystal Serum professionally applied and it has certainly made removal very easy and it doesn't leave the acid etching in the paint lacquer.

That little Micra has been pelted with such force that the rear has moved two feet. It can be the only explanation...

Bizarrely, used tea-bags are good at getting bird-poo off, especially if still warm!

POST 9Original post

'Still warm' - is that the tea bags or the bird poo?!

Suggest you hand around with birds with a bit more class - Chelsea girls would never do anything like that!
