who has caused themselves a mischief?

after digging the golf off the driveway i took it to work. with the mound of snow you have down the middle of the road now frozen sold due to -5*C over night my car has had problems.

oil level sensor on the bottom of the sump no longer works. one flashing light.

a brake pad wear sensor or abs sensor has been ripped off too. one more flashing light

You have answered your own question.

I think he means who else's cars have been damaged as a result of the snow?

ABS light and engine "electrical fault" lamp now lit.

I've had wheel related warnings since the snow began, pads and ABS - sensors are just getting gummed up.

My dad's car doors were frozen shut (2002 Accord Sport) and no amount of hot water/heating helped last night, in the end entry was via the boot!

Lucky it was a hatch then or that wouldn't have got him anywhere would it......

mrk · 3 Dec 2010 at 14:25

The boot was frozen shut too heh, but water helped unfreeze it!

Part of the union jack sticker on the roof has come off

Locks sometimes need a bit of hot water. Otherwise the mini is running fiine

took the car out at lunchtime. its still moaning about a brake issue and oil level. i have checked the oil level and all is good.

the electronic locking diff still works... so my guess is a brake pad wear sensor

Pretzeled a new tyre

*Obligatory T-Cut statement*

Locks were frozen on my car, squirt of WD-40 later and all was good
