Ah, the joys of Detailing** - every day's a school dayI gave my van a jolly good clean yesterday afternoon after work so when I turned on the ignition this morning a very strange and annoying bleeping noise was coming from somewhere.
No warning signs on the dash or in the diagnostic computer so my only choice was to drive with it.
I turned the volume up and put the window down to drown it out on my drive to Sidcup to pick up some lead.
When I parked up and I thought about it, the noise was identical to the parking sensors so I gave them a clean.
It transpired that when I sprayed the bumpers with the black bumper spray it covers the sensors fooling them into thinking a vehicle or a wall is close by!!
