so down the narrow street where everyone drops their kids off for school some bizzy ditch who is parked opens her car door infront of my mrs who is doing school drop off speeds and the door gets folded right around haha .

obviously we'll let the insurance companies fight over it but what are peoples thoughts ?

Door openers fault. No question at all about it.

If she didn't hit the rest of the car, she wouldn't have hit it at all if the dumbass hadn't opened their door.

Actually, hang on. Edit edit edit.

EDIT: If she had the door open and your Mrs hit it then she's at fault. If the door was being opened, it's the openers fault.

yeah its a bit like that . the door literally flung open at just the right moment to get infront of the car and ripped off .

its a narrow road where there isnt room for opening doors and traffic during school hours . carelessness on parked cars fault .

insurance said other persons fault . and if they dont think so then grey area then disputes tribunal which we will win anyway

you couldnt open a door infront of a cyclist then yelling at the cyclist for hitting the door

Just be careful, Your missus could be at fault, the old "cant stop within 1/2 visible clear distance " rule.

Sounds to me like she isn't but sometimes things dont make sense when insurance companies are involved

You dont swerve onto the opposite side to avoid them nor travel at 5km past parked cars just in case. Common sense look before you open the door. Was the door opened past the white parking line into the path of traffic or inside the white line?

My Mum had a similar issue a few years ago. As the door opener she was found to be at fault according to Insurance company but the driver happened to be falling over drunk also so she got paid out in the end.

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
