I’ve had a similar issue ever since I got the car over three years ago. The dealer in NI sent me a replacement Ferrari front sensor but it’s far too sensitive and picks up things over 5 metres away. I was wondering if there’s some kind of calibration that needs doing or whether it’s just not the...

The idea of storing off peak electricity in batteries and using it at peak falls down completely when you factor in the high cost of the batteries and how long they’ll last before needing to be replaced. What’s more, tariffs aren’t stable so any calculation for long term savings need to be taken...

For **** insert the opposite to softly on

Yes if the flap doesn’t flip up then I suppose that’s just as bad. I suspect though that the release mechanism will be the same on all models and it’s a geared motor driven device rather than a standard solenoid and in my case, it was these gears for had gone tight. If you push ******* the...

Before you spend any time doing what I suggested, make sure the battery has a full charge. I've since noticed that several of the electronic devices need the full voltage to operate correctly.

I'll be looking to replace my 2011 4.7s in the new year if you're still looking. I've owned this car for just over three years and currently it has just under 25k miles and just one previous celeb owner. It's always been kept garaged and everything is in good order.

Job done and now it looks perfect, but the best part is it only cost me £20. Bargain!

Well I gave up trying to get the air vents out to reach the screws so it's booked into a trimmer who should have the tools to do it. His nearest match vinyl is close enough as to not be noticeable.

Thanks for that, I'll give it a try.

I have exactly the same problem with the cover over the rear air vents but can't work out how to remove it. Is it screwed from the underside or just clipped on? I've tried giving it a good pull but it seems pretty solid and I don't want to damage it any further.

Ewan I have a 2011 4.7 auto in blue + black leather with about 24k on the clock. I've had the car for just over 2 years and there was only one previous owner. Service history and MOT are perfect if your still looking for one.

Just a bit of a follow up on this. Having sorted out the emergency release problem, I took a look at why the electrical side wasn't working. Pressing the button on the dash did nothing at the business end other than an almost inaudible tick sound. A check with a meter showed there was an...

Wow Thanks for all that even though I've managed it. If you undo those three allen screws you can pull the whole assembly out and see exactly what I mean. Pushing the white plastic plunger in and out from the filler side feels fine but pull the cord and it will stick and bind. Thanks again...

The problem's sorted now or kind of. It eventually opened after a whole load of pulling and prising with knife wrapped with masking tape. The plastic catch was binding and grating quite badly so I gave it a good clean squirted some Mr Sheen polish on it then pushed it in and out until it felt...

May be but not before I've tried everything. I think the covers only plastic and would be a lot cheaper to replace than getting someone out. Maybe the can opener isn't that much of a bad idea!

No it's not jammed like that. The cover is quite free and loose and can be depressed from the edges and it bounces back. I can hear a good click when pulling the cord but that's about it. It just won't spring open. Tried prising it slightly while pulling the cord, still nothing. I've only just...

Thanks for that but I'd already read that somewhere but no joy on that either. I can't hear any solenoid type sound when I press the button so there could be an electrical issue but in any case, isn't that why they have the emergency pull cord opener?? I've only filled up two or three times...

Tried to fill up the other day but the filler cover refused to open. I just about managed to get home running on fumes and now after trying all suggestions, I'm completely stuck and can't even get it to a dealership. Tried the pull cord, WD40, credit cards down the gap, nothing seems to work...
