Default Oh Bugger Don't you hate that.

Small stone chip ( Bottom left of windscreen below wiper almost below bonnet line, I mean how the hell do you get 1 there) which I didn't know about + 1 hour in the sun = dirty friggin great crack half way across the windscreen.

Replaced now but have to drive round for most the weekend with stupid lookin green tape at the top of the window.

I know how you feel, on the way home from the V8 Supercars on the weekend got a stone chip right in the middle of the drivers side.... It hasn't grown any yet but i've gotta get it fixed soon or i'll be heading for a new screen myself...

Yep 4wd's at work regularly go through windscreens. Little chip might hang in for a month then bingo. 1 side to the other in a day. Surprising how quick they can spread.

Reckon I drove about 10 km from when I spotted it to the repair shop and I guess it had grown 2 inches in that time.

Within 10 mins of picking up my brand new MY07 got a huge crack across the windscreen...Turned around and took it straight back to the dealer and they replaced it the next day for me.

I replaced the windscreen on the porka a few months ago, a week later had a chip, got to it quicky tho and filled it, but still pissed me off to no end!
