I think all the force is when doing a tight turn, so at low speed. One fatality was on a motorway where it is thought the vehicl ... |

I’m thinking of changing my 21” wheels for these 20”, does anyone have a picture of similar 20” wheels on their L405? Thanks

| If you decide to do this I’d suggest a tennis ball on a piece of string suspended above the door to remind you. It would be a disaster to forget! |

My car is due a service and timing belt change.
Any recommendations in West Yorkshire or reasonable distance for a reliable indie who can do this and update topix?
Thanks |

I’ve had the code P9234-77 and the throttle body butterfly is sticking, so I’ve ordered a replacement.
Do I need to code it in?
Will an Autel AP200 do the coding?
Thanks |

It’s part of the lower control arm. You’d normally replace both sides. I did mine after watching a couple of YouTube videos and buying some tools. You’ll need:

Dull result!
Removed the lower tailgate trim panel, lubricated both ends of the strut, as much of the pivot as I could, the ball end at the body attachment, both hinges. It’s now working. |
