    Nipple trouble

    Stationary: replacing the socket would be the last resort for me - I don't fancy the rivetting bit. Dalong: way to tight for that to make a difference (as the actress said ...) Thanks for any other ideas.

    Nipple trouble

    When I bought my latest (second) car, I noticed that the small nipple-like lug underneath the "armrest" flap holding the driver's door closed had broken off. As a result, fastening the door was problematic. Having purchased another armrest (thanks Blatchat For Sale) I thought problem over. 'Fraid not. When the nipple is pushed into the socket set into the bodywork, the bu$$er won't let go again - at least not without a great deal of raunching. Clearly, that's what caused the original nipple to break off. Any ideas how I can fix it?

    Intermittent wipe

    Apologies for the delay in responding to the several helpful suggestions - the fine bank holiday weather took me away from the 'puter. Harry - thanks for the link. I'll start saving. IanB - electronics? ... Shmoktronics - I might give it a try. Rich N - I'll find that thread, Thanks all. I'll let you know ... (as they say). Do Not Disturb - disturbed already

    Intermittent wipe

    Hmm. Thanks for the response. Anyone know how to reinstate the feature? Do Not Disturb - disturbed already
  22. Old Roadsport had very handy intermittent wipers. Switch the wipers on, off and back on in quick time and light rain not a problem. According to the handbook, new Roadsport (05) new to me that is, is supposed to do the same. Except it doesn't work. Am I doing something wrong? Or is something broken. Any suggestions?
