Near miss!

Driving into the spiral car park ramp of the Manchester arndale yesterday and say the height warning at 6'3". Went to lower and lock into access mode and it shot up into super extended mode!

No idea why but luckily it gives you an audible bong or I may not have noticed in time. It only just clears the car park locked on low so would have been about a foot too tall!

It did it again when I tried at home. Seems to be a problem with the lock button Question My Previous RR's!

Hi hoppy_70, I had the same issue and it turned out to be a faulty exhaust valve for the compressor, it's in the boot space where the spare wheel goes.

See my thread at http://www.fullfatrr.com/forum/topic2423.html?highlight=

I'm sure yours will be the same, apparently a common fault.

Cheers
Matt

I hate my it-story car parks even when I KNOW I'm going to fit in them.

This may explain why my car has a slight dent above the windscreen that I didn't notice when I bought it - it adds character and I always pass it off as a bird strike if anyone notices Shocked Geoff

Yeh, my own gps arial is crushed after somebody went through something too low. Still works though, wonder if it's possible to buy a new plastic cover for it? My Previous RR's!

Cheers Mick! Nice arse.

It says that this is a dummy (he's sold 105 of them!). I wonder if it will replace a genuine one? My Previous RR's!

It would seem real ones cost more - in an unsurprising twist Geoff
