    Hi, I’m trying to install a set of power vent window motors in my 2006, but the holes doesn’t line up? They are 1/4-1/4” too far apart and maybe 1/2” too far in? I thought they would bolt right up? any help would be great!

    Leather seat differences and color

    Hi all! I know there’s a color difference on the grey leather between early and later models. I also know later models have Isofix mounts on the second row seats. But does the presence of Isofix mounts alway denote later model seats? Are there other differences?

    High as a kite, hard as a rock! (Yes AHC again...)

    Hi guys! I have a 2001 VX100 1HD-FT diesel with 300,000 miles on it. I've owned it for two years and love the comforts over the HJ61 it replaced. But the AHC is acting up! I don't want to go conventional, I want to keep the AHC. AFAIK everything except height sensors are original, and I know...

    Headlight options? Depo or other brand?

    Hi All. I've searched high and low, including the original manuals I have, but it's impossible to find a diagram on the coolant system. I have a Webasto Thermo 50, that I just took out for a service since the coolant pump died, and I'm uncertain that it was plumbed correctly... The issue is...
