Bumper removal

I've tried to remove my bumper following this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UcBssOrfSHo , but I'm finding that there are some clips that hold the bumper near the wheel arch to the upper body work that I can't unclip. It's frustrating as it's only these that are stopping me from getting the ...

Key fob - cold weather

Is anyone else having problems with their keys (starting/stopping) in this cold weather?

My keyfob really doesn't want to go in when it's icy, and when it does go in it stays fully pushed in. So I end up having to push & pull on the thing just to stop the car!

DLR bulbs (Not LED)

Can anyone clarify what are the correct bulbs for the DLR bulbs (grouped with front fog lights) on a UK 2013 B7 please? I've read that they may be: BA15S P21W 12v, but unsure as there is also mention of a 382 type as well. I don't really want to go LED, so would these be ok? http://www.opieoils.co.u...

Fitting a new AGM battery

My car is struggling to fire in the mornings (fine when warm), so suspect battery needs replacing. As it's a bluemotion diesel model, I'm concerned about replacing the battery - forums have mentioned fitting matching BEM batteries and having them re-coded afterwards. Is this true? Car currently has ...
