This was just a maintenance wash so meguairs nxt shampoo, obsession snow foam and meguairs quick detailed to top up the obsession wax 5 year anniversary wax.

To be fair it’s a good colour for getting a fee finish, which does help.

Think I need to start snow foaming, this is never ending! The Mrs will be leaving me at this rate.

Yessss!!

I've only ever done it once with a Karcher one, which was probably crap, but even that was ace in comparison to the other stuff I'd tried.

A mate of mine from North Wales has a detailing company and he has sworn by it for the past 10 or more years.

Pretty sure he's an Autoglym guy, but could be wrong.

nope...I can see the benefit though for those hard to reach areas.... that sounds so wrong.

Haha. Don't worry, once I knew no better. I know it does something because previously (using 2 buckets). The water I tipped out was filthy and that's what I was putting back on the car with the mit. But now, both buckets are crystal clear. Makes washing so much easier.

Just changed the VW icon on my DNX520VBT to the piccy below.

Still regret buying this over an Android unit tbh, but hey ho!

Does anyone know where to get the screws to mount it?

At present only the fascia is holding it in, but I've had it pop out and put me into 4th under hard acceleration once.

Finally put a perm fix in for my unplanned wiper delete.

Wasn't planning on doing this but some little sh1t snapped off my wiper at a point where the whole thing would need replacing.

Anyhoo, had a cheap plug thingy from eBay that ended up being jet washed out by the Turkish car wash guys at my gf's shop (I'm not holding it against them, I get free details ).

Bought a Kill All Wipers glass fill in and some sealant and did it last night, just in time for rain!

Looks crap atm, but a bit of Windolene should sort it out right?
