welcome and just love my 4200cc. get the same with mine when starting up.

So after turning her key I wait a few minutes now, let the fluids get into all her places, enjoy the sound then she's about ready for the ride.

Welcome.

Light covers are dead simple. Get your lad to spray the windows with the lights and ignition on whilst you kneel by the appropriate light. When the spray head pops up grab it tightly. The cover just clips on.

Any problem come down the M5 to minedand I will show you (thirty secon job...but you may get a little wet)

:) Sounds like a cracking game Peter!

Porsche Cayenne headlamp washers are brilliantly simple - but very quick blighters. Had to attempt a similar task, so had Susie do the spraying, she not being stupid enough to fall for the 'grab the spraying nozzle' trick. However, my normally ninja like reactions failed to anticipate the entire unit shooting over my shoulder and landing on the gravel some 10 feet away, nor did I expect the full water jet in the face. Not Porsche's finest engineering design...

Hahahaha, nice one Drew..!!
Welcome to the forum Stoneman, when it comes to the lamp spray nozzle, just get someone to hold the washer on, or the darn thing will pop down again quick smart..!!

Welcome, Stoneman, post some pics.
Sorry I missed you at the event on Sunday, a few of us got together at Gordano and parked up together, cracking day.
Keep you eye on the forum as there are always events on and they are a great bunch of guys.
