What have you done to your MK 7 today ?

The usual commute (it is actually 22 miles according to the car, even though AA route planner states 24.3 miles), and the mpg has crept up a little with the better weather/more miles on.

It's a few miles doing 40/50mph, through the Tyne tunnel, about 18 miles doing 70-80mph (depending on traffic), and a few miles 30/40mph the other end. On the way home (but not the way in) there's a bit of traffic midway through the motorway spell, and i'm getting 31.5mpg. I get a few acceleration spurts in when the car has warmed up. The car still seems to take longer to get to a decent mpg running Esso Supreme rather than Shell V-power, and seems a little less urgent on acceleration.

Will give Tesco Supreme a go next, as there's a huge Tesco right by the new place of work with a Tesco (non-Esso) filling station.

Got some Eibach springs fitted....ride quality is still very good and the drop is exactly what I wanted.

That looks loads better, would look nice with some spacers now to widen the track a little too.

Drop looks perfect how low did u go?

The rear track is 31mm narrower than the front. 15mm spares will be perfect. None required on the front.

I have been copying my music collection to an SD card and getting the album artwork correct.

Really need to wash it it's covered in dust due to all the building that is going on around me but just not had time.

How did you get on with this?
Does all your album artwork display correctly?

I spent a few days doing similar and still some of them don't display correctly.

I even have a few double albums that were processed the same, tagged the same and had the same embedded picture, One of the albums shows artwork correctly while the other doesn't.  I've tried putting the double album into the same folder and tagging them all as one and still it doesn't show correctly.  I'm totally bamboozled

Took the car to Benfield Silverlink to get seat belt fault fixed under warranty.
I also asked them to disable the Soundaktor as it was too obtrusive in Sport Mode, for which they charged me £42.
However the car now sounds and feels so much better.
I still have to go back apparently to get those two plastic attachments to the spoiler replaced although mine seem secure enough

Wow £42. Someone here would have done it free I'm sure via VCDS.

I'm in sunderland and i would have done it for you.

Same thing here but i think its because a few of them are greater than 400x400. The ones that i have downloaded and embedded have worked but the ones done through Media Monkey dont.

If you do an images search on Google the use the search tools to narrow the size you should get them easily. Going to spend some time tomorrow getting them all right.

That didn't work for me unfortunately. 
Loads of my artwork was over 400x400 some were even 1200x1200 and they displayed fine. That was before I started looking into it properly.
Since then I have made sure all the pictures are 400x400 and it makes no difference.

I still can't fathom out how on a double album, only one of the albums displays properly and the other doesn't!! Both embedded exactly the same 

I'm not the only one with problems either
