Do you have any rolling shots or video of this? Bet it looks so cool hooning about! Some lowered vans just look s**t and half arsed but yours is ace and done perfectly.
Push the interior sensors down into the pillars and see if it makes a difference. Check the wiring on them too as they're often dodgy.
Have you tried leaving the battery disconnected for an hour or so?
As a temp fix, get in the car, lock it on the button inside then get out the passenger...
Took a few photos I'm quite happy with! Did a quick edit with them on Photoshop, trying to get better but these were just taken on my phone rather than a proper camera! Any Photoshop tips welcomed

Took a trip to the Lake District and used it as an opportunity to take some photos as the scenery was ace. Also had a play at editing them more on photoshop, still getting the hang of it and what order to do things in! Hope to eventually get a proper DSLR as these were just taken on my phone. (I...
I'm pretty sure some cars came with the switch pointing the other way so it may have been replaced at one point as the 3 dots are meant to be closest to the dash
I understand the gravity of the situation with the rear shock bolts, but i've read on csoc before with people having them come loose. Mine were super difficult to thread in last time and were near to the torque spec before they were all the way in. But then I removed them, ran a tap down the...
From reading Chris' thread you can see the Car is mint and has been looked after! If the only issues that you've found are that of a loose rear shock bolt, missing inlet bolts and pushed in boot grommet that's pretty good going for a 16 year old car!
Its clear the car has had a lot of...
Spotted coming out of Kendal about 12ish today. I was overtaking a bus and completely missed you so sorry I didn't wave/flash! Mrs was the one who told me you'd gone passed.
Easiest way to check is at night with your phone torch.
Your rear bumper does look to have some gold fleck in it tbf but the rest looks to be 100% pearl black.
You can tell the difference, BG is a little deeper
Some 1.2s are always a good bet, fairly cheap and very light!
I have some 2118s but they're heavy however will never bend! They have ad08rs already on them and will be FS when I pull my finger out Haha
Ahh, i fit shocks in the opposite direction, bottom in first, then aligned at the top, wont make a difference really. I doubt they're the problem, but i'd try to stick with genuine IMHO.
Those are high tyre pressures, get them down to 30 front 32 rear and adjust. That'll make it proper...
They charged you, but didn't provide a printout? That's shoddy. What system were they using?
When fitting the shocks, were you on even ground/ axle stands on the same point under the car? I'd be checking they've sent you the right ones!
Tyres might not have been helping! What pressures?
In reply to your questions,
What condition are your rear shocks in? This can give you the symptoms you've explained.
And do you have your printout from tracking? 3degrees is a lot, is it running rear spacers? You may have a bent rear stub axle.
Maybe worth replacing just before you take it...
