Some Noob Questions

Fiery Phoenix · Post by **Fiery Phoenix** » Fri Apr 25, 2008 5:23 pm

1. I have the squeeky clutch - looked it up on here - but no one has said whether a spray of WD40 would work - just a message NOT to do that as it may be the cables. What do you recommend? Do I give it a spray? Live with it? Or take it back to the dealer?

2. The outstanding miles to the ptrol station indicator on the trip computer - how accurate is it? Should I be going off this or looking at the fuel gauge? For example the warning light and noise has just come and and the trip computer says 56 miles remaining

3. My roof hasnt leaked yet - but have noticed when it has been raining and I wind my window down, a shed load of water drips in, all on the seats and down the interior of the door. Common problem?

4. Another trip computer question - just to query - why does it have TWO mpg screens?

Clutch is hydraulic. Oil pivot point of pedal - I suggest 3 in 1 oil. Just a drop or two!

Mine is very accurate, but don't risk sucking up debris in the tank. When the light comes on refuel as soon as convenient. Don't use supermarket fuel.

3. My roof hasnt leaked yet - but have noticed when it has been raining and I wind my window down, a shed load of water drips in, all on the seats and down the interior of the door. Common problem?

Mine is an 05 model and has the roof strips. I take it your 04 model doesn't. Yours is a common problem on the older cars.

4. Another trip computer question - just to query - why does it have TWO mpg screens?

One will be the average consumption, the other will be the current consumption. Page 79 of the owner's manual explains it all.
