Got mine coming up next month. Can't deicde on if I want to use Shell Helix Ultra again or try perhaps Millers EE performance variant. But looking at nearly £100 for 10l of Millers Oil.First oil change today. 10 qts of 5w-30 and a new FL-500S. Pretty easy to do. Good for another 5k.
They just gotta' tack "ECO" onto their marketing, don't they?Got mine coming up next month. Can't deicde on if I want to use Shell Helix Ultra again or try perhaps Millers EE performance variant. But looking at nearly £100 for 10l of Millers Oil.

Saying that 10l of Shell Helix Ultra is still £80. So not much difference!
Or anything that says "track" seems to bump the price up. Like Motual 300V. £240 for 10l.They just gotta' tack "ECO" onto their marketing, don't they?
Sad....very sad.
Wow, things are more expensive across the pond for sure!! I paid $62.44 USD for 10 quarts of fully synthetic 5W-30. $62.44 is roughly 75.22 GBP.Got mine coming up next month.

I am thinking of doing this to mine as well. Could you answer a few questions for me?Finally added the rear seat delete. Left the shoulder belts in.
1) not bad at all, except I'm a big guy with big hands. I did have a little trouble getting my hands into the package shelf holes to install the quick release hardware for the upper panel.I am thinking of doing this to mine as well. Could you answer a few questions for me?
Thanks in advance for anythign that you can provide.
- How was the install?
- Did you install any sound deadener?
- Did you notice any increase in interior noise?
- How sturdy is it? Can you put things on it without it bowing/sagging?
- Can you put a picture of what it looks like folded down?
- Looking on youtube for installs it looks like there isnt much securing it on the leading edge (towards the remaining seats). Does it sit securly up front?
- I'm still kinda new around here and I was wondering if you know of anyone that put out any plans/drawing/ideas/completed project pics for turning the removed seats into a chair/bench for an office/man cave?

Thank you kindly sir...1) not bad at all, except I'm a big guy with big hands. I did have a little trouble getting my hands into the package shelf holes to install the quick release hardware for the upper panel.
2) No.
3) Yes. There is more road noise.
4) Pretty sturdy actually. I'm 340#, and can sit in the middle no issue. I believe they rate both sides at 100# each for cargo capacity.
5) It doesn't fold down. to button presses and the top panel comes out easy.
6) it isn't attached at the front, but gravity does it's thing.
7) haven't seen that yet, but great idea. Should be fairly easy to do with basic construction/fabrication skills.
Why is the entire EPAS being replaced for just a sensor?? They can’t just replace the steering sensor? What am I missing here?I'm talking about the steering rack, for clarification's sake. The entire unit is being replaced.
While I typically try to DIY maintenance and repairs, I'm in a time crunch and haven't the time or energy to get it done myself...
