Terrible roads? I don't know, the Kia was worse though. But on this subject, the garage are saying that the rear camber is out, but cannot be adjusted?? Said the same last time...
Could be the tracking bolts have seized in the bushes. Common issue.
Cant remember the exact cost but spent about £15 for new bolts and washers etc and about £30 for the new bushes. Would need to be tracked again to do the rear tracking.
Haha, you were right! I jacked the car up and took the wheel off to get a good look at it, and there it was wedged between the disc and dust guard? Gave it a good push and it popped out, and voila problem solved.
Thanks guys!
Wonder if I can get one of these to fit when released.

What ever happened to the joy of driving....now we need to be connected to Google at all times? Nobody needs apps while they drive.
It made me chuckle when they said cars are disconnected as if that is a bad thing. Last thing we need are drivers being distracted with their apps.

Being a Google fan i'm quite excited about this..
Will fit in nicely with my Android phone, Chromebook, Chromecast, Google Nest Thermostat and Nest Protect haha.
Think about it thought... the maps will be constantly updated.
Oh I like Google, but I like it on my phone or PC. Not in the car... I just don't see the need to be doing things other than driving whilst driving. In fact I think too many people struggle with driving as it is. Chuck Facebook into the mix (let's face it, that is what this is really about) and I dread to think what the roads will be like!
I like it!
Got an AppRadio2 now which is built for iPhone so quite keen to see Google stepping up seeing as I'll be switching to Android within the next 2 months or so

No different than they are now.. on the way home from work this morning at 6:30am I passed about 7-8 cars where the driver was texting or facebooking at same time

Just finished a two week stint insured on my dad's m135i again. So much fun to drive. Also so much fuel used in comparison to my cr170!
I must say I'm very jealous! I drove the 1M for the day & fell in love, ... One day lol..

Good drive that! Did that 3 years ago in the old TFSI. Ended up having a seizure haha
Done it a few times now last time was in a mk4 1.8t. Cost a fortune! Still got about 100 miles left in my tank from a fill up. Just hope the engine fault is one of those that comes up every few thousand miles
Got my car fully serviced @ midland vw top notch guys but did notice a oil leak possibly from turbo, i would like to check myself but haven't got a clue how to everything seems all tight together, i did notice some dried up oil on a pipe below the air intake pipe but cleaned up to see if it comes back. if anyone has any insight to check further please let me know 
Today i finally sorted out the issue i've had pretty much since i bought the car about 3 months ago but it got worse. Damn misfire!
I changed:
Charcoal canister
Coilpacks
Sparks plugs
PCV valve
Rev D diverter valve
That's pretty much the major common issues changed so i should be good for a while and ready for an intake & map!
The car runs much smoother now and the power is on point! I've also fitted a Forge Spacer, no matter what the reviews are where some have experienced issues with it but some have been fine for a year. I thought i would give this a go and give feedback with my experience which may help others. I love the sound of it and it's not loud at all with the windows up! I might remove the bonnet sound proofing and see how much louder it gets! No bad performance issues with it for now but i will see how it goes.
