I mistakenly purchased a drink from the Wimpy at the services on the M6 toll last Sunday and after my 500 mile drive left it in the cup holder.........and came out the next morning to find the cup somewhat disintegrating and a stream of sticky Fanta down the A/C console......all wiped off and thought nothing more of it until yesterday when I needed to use the A/C only to find buttons sticky and hard to press in/out (I can only assume the Fanta is inside the buttons

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.

Oh, and please remember this is me without absolutely no technical knowledge or DIY skills
I have had a paper cup disintegrate on me before - why do they do that!
Scott, always chuck it in the bin, just cos your cab looks like a skip with the hood down :lol: no need to chuck rubbish in it
Oh dear Scottie....
