Floor mat tethers - sorted (hopefully)
Further to my earlier post, I had a little time to try some things to repair the floor mat tethers that have pulled out of the carpet and no longer secure.

Floor mat tethers
Hi,
The floor mat securing clips on the driver side have pulled out of the main carpet.
Originally, they screwed in but the hole in the carpet has become worn and they just pull out.
Has anybody come up with a clever repair for this?

Re: WANTED. lateral load sensor
its a permanent fault, cant clear it.
brakes work fine otherwise, I don't think its pad/disc related and there is no pedal thumping/banging that you experienced.
