Can bus gateway confusion

<< < (2/9) > >>

MPS:
Just spent 1 hour trying to get this lil b@*tard out but no joy, I CAN see it though, in the most AWKWARD place ever, above the damn pedals, and absolutely everything is in the way, aircon ducting and everything else!! Especially when you've got big hands like me... It doesn't help either when your 6'4" trying to slot yourself into the footwell, your back ends up on the sill and it's torture after 5 minutes! :sad:  :grin: So all you lanky barstewards beware!  :grin:

Oh well, I'll try again tomorrow. I think performing heart surgery would be an easier task than this!

Could do with finding myself a dwarf mechanic with spindly arms and hands to reach the can gateway  :grin:

Cheers for now and thanks for the replies!

matt look on the steering column there is a black bar held in by 2 bolts, take this out and you will have better access. Personally i strip all the plastics from round the steering column when i've done them, easier than ripping your hand to bits.
By the way I have a S revision gateway and it works perfectly never had the battery drain.

Cheers

Thanks a million for the advice mate,  :happy2: I'll try your suggestion when I get in from work later. What a relief to know that the S revision works, I only payed £40 for it as well!  :smiley:

Darren, this black bar you're talking about, is it the ducting pipe for the footwell ventilation?

Thanks

Impossible. Anyone want an RCD510?  :laugh:
