Iso-propyl alcohol might work. Try a bit first though....It is kind enough on vinyl records.

Everything I've tried so far has attacked the paint. Wd40 seems to do it but takes ages. The plastics are scruffy anyway so might wrap them.

Replaced one the front parking sensors on Ms Rebel’s CRV. The car still thinks there is something close the the starboard bow so I assume there is a wiring fault or the brand new sensor is crap.
I think it will have to go to Honda.

Try acetone on the plastics. I think nail varnish remover's the same stuff.

Question for sic. Do you still have your Renault diagnostic software available for upload? Might as well get it if I can as I'm sure I'll need it at some point!

Somewhere! I ought to open source it of something. I took it off the app store as I got fed up of the support requests. Bit dated now too to go back up as the 2000-era cars are thinning down now.
