    I bought my 9-3 convertible last September. The previous owner gave me 3 keys, only 2 of which unlocked the doors. Soon after one of the working keys gave up so we were down to 1. Last week the remaining key gave up. New batteries were tried. It looked like an expensive garage bill. I used to...

    Hi All, Does anyone know if the jet for the fixed headlight washer just pulls off the blue pipe (see 1st picture)? I need to attach the jet to the housing (2nd pic) (it was missing when I bought the car) and to do that I have to disconnect it from the hose somehow. I have had a try at...

    As above has anyone got any suggestions, I can feel the click so I do not think it is the switch. The initial anti pinch fix was done by myself by reconnecting the cable link on the inside of the door. Thanks

    Hi all. I have a headlight fault - not the relay (the two that I bought will go back onto the market soon), not the headlight/indicator stalk (fortunately didn't buy one of these) but a broken red/white wire between the two. All I need to do is replace the wire. do I run another wire between...
