    Alarm/Fob issues...

    OK, Two common issues keyless unit failing or a faulty hood catch switch, I would check the hood switch first as its a lot cheaper and would cause the fobs not staying synchronized. Try closing the bonnet a few times sharpish and use a bit if wd40 on the catch.

    Falken ZE912

    Update. These tyres have improved the turning in of the car steering seems quicker but they give a slightly more bumpy ride than the p-zero. But i put that down to them being a extra-load tyre also impressed with the good grip in the wet. All in all a good tyre
  52. Andrew

    Falken ZE912

    They do give a smooth ride and so far not much tramling. I am impressed considering they cost a lot less than the p-zeros and £76 less each than the contact sport 3 that i originally wanted.
  53. Andrew

    Falken ZE912

    just had the falkens fitted and done 15 miles and so far they seem the same as the p-zeros and with it being damp not going to push to hard till they have bedded in more. traction in the wet seems good so far post back when i have done a few for miles.

    Falken ZE912

    I will give the falkens a go and post back what there like.
