Thanks again guys, for the record my 46 mile round trip to work went great, no "Battery Charge Fault" and interestingly the "Brake Fluid Level" warning doesn't come on now when I put on the handbrake??

Watch this space!

Glad to see my post at least engineered a potential new loving relationship on the forum, good luck Waldorf (Doggy) & Stadtler (Disco) :wink:

Great stuff fellas, Cheers.........

Were I in the habit of sharing holes, (fox or otherwise), seeking out the 'Resident Pervert', would not figure on my selection criteria.

However, I may look into animating the eyelids. :roll:
