      Basically you wait until the overflow stops, then add oil through the top until it starts overflowing again. Screw in the bungs and it's done.

    I am doing a replacement of my front bumper but have failed at the first hurdle - removing top grill. I have removed the 6 screws, bonnet release and air intake, but have 4 clips at the bottom of the grill where it attaches to the top of the bumper. I have eased the outer clips on both sides but can't release the inner clips on each side. I have inserted flat screwdriver above and below but can't work out which way they move? Just started raining so have popped in to ask here as I watched your video yesterday and hope you might remember as the top grill appears to be off at the start of this video. I don't want to force anything as top grill is undamaged. TIA

    I have send my car to the Service Centre for replace the rear tyre sensor, and after that the mechanic suggest to update my car software for better condition After finished software installation, there are two symptoms coming out • Car temperature indicator go to maximum level • Very Hard Knocking when I shift N to D gear Senior Mechanic take over this to find the problem occur and make some software alteration to normalise the condition. The senior mechanic can only normalise the high temperature problem but can’t solve the hard knocking problem and they said that they could not replicate the problem Any idea what it can be. It only happens in first gear. All the rest of the gears shifts smoothly with no problem. This happens even when the car has warmed up and even after an hour of driving.

    • @JamesThorpe
