Picked up new r56 cooper s jcw this week and 2 things that arent quite right!
Firstly parrot kit was fine when I collected the car however when you go over a bump it tents to switch itself on/off. Obviously it will be a loose connection with the power supply. The kit is mounted next to the starter button...any ideas how to fix?

Secondly power steering makes a nasty noise at low speed on lock...thought it was electric steering on this one so I don't have a clue what that can be!

Cheers
James

Hi

If you bought from a dealer, then take it back to have the kit checked out, you might spend hours trying to find the loose connection.

As for the power steering, it usually is noisy on lock, but you feel uneasy about it then take it to your local dealer.
