Re: Coronavirus Thread
Guys: stay at home if you can, and only go out if you have to. I am telling you: in Spain we thought we had a quite good health system. Now it is collapsed, with people needing to be in hospital telling to go home, just because there are no beds for everyone. In hospital there are only so many respi...

Re: random electronic problems
Unfortunately, it can help in 10% cases only I think. Water damage usually goes deeper inside that you see on the contacts. Well, in my case I don't think I've ever had any water damage. So I guess my random errors are due to some faulty contact. But I am just guessing, and the problems are non rep...

random electronic problems
I've had had some random warnings that go away just switching off and on again (limp mode, traction control...), so I am not worried yet (maybe three warnings in the past 6 months), but I have been investigating a little bit just in case it worsens . And I found this video, which I think it's worth ...

Re: Frost inside windows and sunroof
-Leave AC always on (even on winter), so heating air will be dryer.
-Check that your coolant level hasn't dropped. If it has, you might have a leak on the heater core (which causes wet air in the cabin, which will frost during the night).

Re: Determining sound system in used cars
If it has an aux input, it has a "mode" button. If it doesn't have an aux input, it has a "CD" button.

spark plugs gap
I am about to buy a set of spark plugs for my C30 2.0i. However, searching online, I get different specs, with gaos ranging from 0.8mm to 1.5mm.
Does someone have a reliable source of which spark plug spec should I buy?
Thanks

Re: V50 2006 1.6D CEM errorcodes.
With so many errors, I'd check first if the electronics are getting enough battery power.
