Why lock an active topic (Fiat Fix does not work) Forums

johnc

Not sure I understand why an active topic has been locked as it still has very useful posts being submitted

Thanks for the update, Steve. The campaign recalls match those we've already marked on the other thread :: here ::, but we'd be glad to see the updates on that thread.

I'm going to lock this thread now, as I think it's going to dissipate the information we're getting.

Hi John

I've been doing this for weeks. The problem is that we have a number of threads, all discussing the same problem. The idea is that we have one thread where all the information is updated. I've PM'd 1happy (Catherine) to add the "doesn't work" thread to her first post in the main thread. We won't lose the information. We just don't want the information being dissipated across a number of threads, with members not knowing which one to check. Also it's so we don't flood the "recent posts" listings with the same subjects.

Edit: I've also moved this thread to "website help" since it's a more appropriate place for it.

Hello John,

Can understand your Fiat issue, though agree with gerald. Far better to keep the info in one place, despite how many depths of pages you may need to sift through.

Hi, Trev

In the Base Chassis (Fiat/Mercedes/Iveco) forum, the main water ingress thread is the very top ('stickied') thread. In addition, due to the frequent updates, it is always near the top of the "recent posts" lists. So the information should be easy to get to.
