new owner / couple of niggles | |
I collected my 2010 4.4 tdv8 yesterday and so far really loving it, it feels quicker than I thought and quicker than my old bm 730d which I traded in.
I do have a couple of niggles I would like to sort out.
The glass in the divers side wing mirror wobbles slightly at high speed (don't ask how fast ) So I think the glass needs taking out and clipping back on. I'm a bit worried about breaking the glass or making things worse though.
The door over the fuel cap opens as normal but has to be held open whilst refuelling. I presume a spring or part of the hinge has broken. I also noticed that once the car is locked the latch locks the fuel cap door as expected but it doesn't feel that secure. There's still quite a bit of play in it and certainly doesn't feel as secure as the bmw I had. Is this a design fault or does it sound broken.
finally, this is my fault, I picked the car up in nearly new dark blue jeans. My 4 hour drive home has resulted in dye transfer to my ivory leather. I am just off to Halfords to inspect the leather cleaning products. The upside to this is I get an excuse to go for another drive 2010 4.4 tdv8 - black / ivory
