Can't wait to see what the 4 ways are like, gonna be difficult to know what has made the different though!
No, Nigel stripped both front shocks, one had seized due to being parked up too long after rain I guess.

You'll hate the 4 way until you manage to get it set up. Luckily you'll have help. Then it will be lovely

Had a look at both sensors and NSF has a couplke of dodgy looking bits but seems ok really. Ill have to get both sensors monday and see if it cures it.

Fluid is to the top still.

I think the bottom light is the hubba bubba warning light mate.

Impacts forward visibility....hence warning.

Fix is to lower drivers window and launch chewy out of car.

Shimmy don't forget to leave ignition in second position and just wait 10-15 secs for the light to go out its self that resets the pad sensor wear indecators you might try that first if they have boon unplugged and not plugged back in properly
That light usually indecates from pads are worn!!!

Cheers, saw that on YT.

I've taken off front wear sensor as even if not faulty, it looked a bit dodgy. I'll replace Tuesday and reset and see what's what. I'll buy the rear as el just incase.

Not pad wear as they are not connected to the RS29

Yes but if you have a faulty sensor and it causes the light to come on, if you fit a new sensor the light will usually not go out until either a, you erase the fault codes or b, drive the car.

I agree the light should go out after driving because it sees no fault!!
