thats all well and good Peter but i like things to work properly so when it comes on again i know it needs a service
I think you should try this fix if not just to see if it works for you

Hi all i have just had a service on my 2009 xtype 2.2 the garage guys are usually great but even they are stumped how do you reset the service required message that comes up on start up
-
Hi There FS I have just had the same problem with my 2009 one week after buying her now heres what you need to do
1, go to a garage and ask them to do a diagnostics check " this will give you some error codes to work with"
2, Take said codes to your garage and they should know what to do
this is exactly the problem i had and now its fixed although my problem was the Turbo and as it kicked in it took the engine into limp mode, pull over, restart and its fine again. what happens is it tells the computer there is a problem with the car but doesn't know what the problem is hence ( gearbox fault ) and by going into limp mode it is protecting the engine and its parts.
turbo fix could cost anything from £95 to £250 to £750 for a full rebuild
Mine cost £700 including a full service " but i do have a very good mechanic"
I hope this helps as it took me a while to work this one out
Cheers

Its in the title really, the rear bumper on my new/latest x type seems to have come away the bottom part from the top part! but only in the middle, it wasn't noticeable until my local garage mechanic said "that needs popping back In" does anyone know or have diagrams as to how the rear bumper assembly comes apart
thanks for any info in advance

fuses ok F14 F15 on the x type how can i check the relay (but there only seems to be one) R6 so thinking this is ok
possibly wiring fault or left hand element fault !!! One relay two fuses

-
Thanks all
will check the fuses but surely if its one circuit/one connector its only one fuse interesting "will check"

"If your around the 50-57mph range in 5th gear, the 2,0d is a bit jumpy, I`ve had two of the 2.0d and both have this awkward vague loss of power feeling at these speeds, you soon get used to it"
still working with the dealer on this when i have time in the diary

thanks for the replies and Peter your right just got the car with service on it etc filters Oil etc and it does seem like a minor issue within lights or warnings atall i was more interested really as to what it might be ! Jim thank you for your feedback it doesn't seem to happen very often not around local roads anyway only found this happening on motorway around 50mph or coming up to motorway speed and only lets say four times on the whole trip
so i will try the dealer before the warrantee runs out for sure and have a look at doing the ERG and keep an eye on it, when the weather is a bit better ill have a look! and thanks David i will have a look at this when it stops raining

Ok so i wasn't sure what to title this
Had a great trip down to maidstone at the weekend for our friends wedding and smartened the car up with the usual bows and ribbons so i could help and take the Bridesmaids it was all lovely, all in all a round trip of 559miles on a tank of fuel ( is this good by the way ! )
On the way home i noticed on the motorway there was a slight lagg at times or intermittent loss of power, I'm only talking split seconds here but concerning non the less.
As i have just bought the car and have 6 months warrantee i thought id get some feedback if i can! Is it or could it be ERG needing a good clean out its got 124K on the clock so could be I'm thinking or does anyone have any other ideas what this could be
I'll include a picture just because i was very proud of my car this weekend

hi peter
it could be peter " how to clean the drive though" cleaned the disc a few times works ok sometimes and not others so I'm thinking "the laser" also i think what happens is that it doesn't work to well in the cold i.e. condensation !
will keep trying
traveling to London again this weekend for a wedding and offered the car to take the bridesmaids, I'm sure she'll look good with the wedding ribbons for our friends
back soon
thanks again
