Hi, welcome. A good choice of car and engine. Hopefully the forum folk can point you in the right direction for your needs but there is plenty of information in the knowledge base section, and also by searching for problems, somewhere between the banter and idle chit-chat ...... 8)

had a quick look around and it seems I have a few common problems, spent this afternoon poking and prodding at the car, so far I have found and fixed some of the following

Low on power = fixed was a slack throttle cable
Air bag light on = fixed was a connection under the seat
Drivers door lock = fixed wd40 and a wiggle
grinding knocking noise = clumps of dirt in wheels and springs!
multi display dim and only showing date and time?
wipers park too high?
Stereo works but beeps loudly?
Strange noise from behind clocks when you first open the door?
Climate control resets every time and sometimes takes a while to turn off?

The wipers bit is unusual, do they overlap the screen when driving down the road :shock:
Can simply slacken the wiper arm nut and adjust the wiper arm down by moving it round the spline a bit.....
