Ha! Unfortunately it was lost. I don’t even know how long it’s been lost for. A few weeks I’d guess but I’ve barely driven it over that period.

Thanks all! Good to know the small plate fits in the standard bracket. Perhaps that’s what I did and that’s why I can’t find a previous order in my email! Think I’ve had my GTS for 4 years now so struggling to think back! :)

Morning all, I’ve just noticed I’ve lost my front plate on a curb or going over a bump. I used to have a small plate on the front but can’t remember where I bought the bracket. I’m stuffing to find one on google and can’t find anything in my old emails. I will admit my googling has mostly been...

Oh, to answer one of the other questions....4 seats are required but not necessariy 4 doors.

Think I was secretly hoping you were gonna advise me to keep the GTS! :D The swap is indeed mostly due to miles - although in part I was thinking it might be about the right time to change. My GTS is a 2009. Maybe I'll give the commute a go for a few months and see if I can upgrade to a...

It looks like I'm gonna have to trade my GTS for a Ghibli or Levante. I'm switching jobs and will be doing 40 miles a day 3-5 times a week. I can't quite decide which at the moment - if costs were the same I think I'd probably go for the Levante. Prices considered, it seems like the Ghibli is...

Quick update: I've received the diagnostic tool. It's done the job I wanted it for. It successfully diagnosed the ABS, ASR errors as the front left speed sensor. I had hoped it was a false positive as my car was recently towed after a blow out (rear left wheel). The owners manual said I...

Love it! Will definitely need to get one of those fitted at some point!

Would love to know if these work and how easy they are to fit. My rear sensors are playing up. The fronts work until I move into reverse and then it gives the parking system unavailable error. As I have an auto I can't move into drive until I switch through reverse - so the fronts are...

Oh great! Sounds expensive! Will be intesteing to see what the diagnostic tool shows up then...if anything! The MOT is due end of next month anyway. I'll send the car into a dealer and return the device if it's not useful.

I've taken a punt on the cheaper tool from diagnostic world. I've got the ABS, MSR, Suspension lights coming on. From the posts I've read it is likely that this is from a particular ABS Sensor in one of the bearings. According to the website the diagnostic tool should identify which bearing...

Haha! I'd tried wiping them but didn't know about the 'whack' trick! :-) ...Worth a go!

Thanks for the info gents. Fingers crossed it's just the one then! Also need my front parking sensors fixed/replaced so I guess I'll just get the lot done all at once.

Hi Mark, Did you manage to get this sorted in the end? What was the damage? My GTS is now also showing the same symptoms...also seemlingly to a lack of use through the cold xmas/january weather! Cheers, Peter

I've got a 2009 GTS and just replaced my battery. It started draining every time I went on holiday for 2 weeks. Then gradually got worse and recently died twice within 2 weeks despite being fully charged (and driven) in between. No issues since replacing the battery. Mine cost about £150...
