5000 mls so far, Turbo Hose has been refitted by LR after 3000 mls, seems ok at present.

Have LR cost reduced the Carpets so much that they buckle, move forward and crease.

Looks to me as at the first sevice a new pair of Front Carpets will be on the warranty list, anybody else suffering the same problem. NormanD WE191

Not a problem on my 2009 XS. Are the two black studs in place by the door that hold them in position ?

Yes, the studs are elongating the holes in the flimsy Carpet material. NormanD WE191

Certainly sounds like a cheap quality carpet in the new ones then.

Get them changed under warranty.

Hi All

No Problems with my carpets so far at 6K miles although the load liner and the front mats may be helping everything stay in one place!

Similar problem with mine, carpet wasn't properly taped down and very thin/ flimsy. Easy enough fix but I doubt it'll last too long.

They are certainly different thickness from my old 2.4 - much thinner.

I find this really strange, just checked my 2.2 carpets, with the 2.4, and they are exactly the same. Thick, well backed, and studs in place. Both XS DCPU models, however I have the heavy duty mats in both to protect the carpet.

The carpet in the rear, behind the 2nd row of seats in both models, is terrible. Very thin, but well stuck down.
