• VW Polo windscreen wiper problems! 23 Feb 2013 (Forum)
  I've got a 2001 VW Polo 1.4TDI and over the last couple of weeks the rear windscreen wiper comes on all of it's own accord. The front windscreen did the same as well today as well. Does anyone have any idea what might cause this and what can i do to fix it? Cheers Stewart
• Windscreen wipers. 2002 Corsa 29 Dec 2006 (Forum)
  I have a 52 plate Corsa 1.2 The front windscreen wipers stop in different positions, not as they should at the bottom of the screen when the wipers are used and turned off. Do I need to fit a new windscreen wiper relay? If so, is it a main dealer purchase or can one be obtained from an accessory shop?

• Suz Swift 68plate - Windscreen replacement and Lane Change Camera's 26 Nov 2018 (Forum)
    Near the turnoff for the A120 I'm in a line of traffic indicating left.  I've left a sensible gap between me and the car in front.  Some "large male chicken" driving a Black CRV decides to pull out hurtle past then cut in right in front of me.  Obviously being three seconds closer to his destination was life critical.

• Rover 25 - Heated Rear Screen problem 2 Dec 2011 (Forum)
    Heated rear windscreen has just stopped working on a 2004 Rover 25. When it stopped, the light on the switch also stopped working and the fusible link in the fuse box under the bonnet had blown. First time I replaced the fusible link it blew again, however, after removing the relay and inserting it again, a new fusible link has not blown and the light in the switch has come on again.

  Are there any must have add ons? I couldn’t see a heated front windscreen option. The only downsides I can see are the stereo upgrade is Beats, which I loathe (overhyped, excessive bass, poor quality sound) and the paint, mainly white, black and silver, with some so so colours.
