Doh! Time to upgrade cars, pip....
The GD would have the washer as well, I'm sure.
Yep that's it Keith. It looked like that is what I had to do with twister but it didn't go far enough. It took about 10 seconds for the water to start running and I could hear the pump going. Seeing as how it had never been used I guess the lines needed to fill up first.Happy days
I see that "dead steering" jibe bandied around a lot, mostly by car mag vehicle testers, TBH I don't agree. I've had many many cars of all makes and the only ones with any "feel" we're the ones without power assistance. I'll stick with what I got thanks, I don't expect feedback from the steering wheel, i love it as it is as I use my eyes and the seat of my pants for feedback, much like I do on a motorbike. What do we want for a cooking family car?

What do we want for a cooking family car? Our European cars including Golfs were able to offer something in the steering department the i30 lacks. I strongly suspect tyres are part of the issue but not completely the answer. It's an area of the car that could use some attention I think although its obviously not intended to be a sporty car or a car with a sporty feel. And yes indeed, as it is it works just fine as a daily driver.
