Thanks Wojtek. I'm sorry I never saw that earlier - I have bought a Chromecast, and also had to buy a USB unit.
If the Chromecast fails, I will give this item a shot. |

After a recent service my dealer recommended that I get the wheel alignment checked. It was a serious process involving the dealership locking the vehicle in some special mode (done using t ... |

Hi Muff D
Thanks for the reply. I see you got lucky. There does not seem to be such a big community here in South Africa and that is why I was thinking of a BMW rim.

Hi Aidan
If you have a tracker system fitted it may need a new battery. When the tracker battery gives up it starts draining the car batrtery - and it can drain quite quickly.
Good luck
