Phill and Ted pram hood hard to put back in place
Hi,
I have the same problem with a Phil and Ted's Sport - but I believe I have the solution as below. This is taken straight from the Instruction Manual which you can view at: http://www.arango-design.com/Phil-Teds-Sport-Buggy-p/7890-0001.htm - towards bottom of page is a link to the instruction manual - which I was unable to get on the Phil and Teds website. Got this today but haven't tried it yet. Hope this helps.
Really becomes clear when you see the pictures in the instruction manual.
Regards, John
Hood
The sport hood is packed disconnected.
To reconnect:
1. Locate sun hood and hold it facing down, as shown ‘a’.
2. Insert crimped wire ends into frame, through eyelets, ‘b’.
3. Lay hood back (to top of buggy).
4. Locate red coloured pocket at top of fabric seat and insert rear hood wires into each side, ‘c’ and ‘d’.
5.Open hood and attach domes, at bottom of hood, to main seat, ‘e’.
6. Pull eyelet at top of hood over pegs on each side of frame, ‘f’
Note that the windows in the hood are lined with a sun mesh of
a lower shade factor than buggy fabric. Always use sun cream
and clothing for protection of children in direct sunlight.
E3 wheel grinding
Hi,
This sounds like your bearings have gone. You should be able to get new bearings on eBay or from your retailer. Bear in mind that you will probably need a new star lock washer too, but your axle will be reusable.
Hope this helps.
Where can I buy replacement covers for my e3?

Phil & Ted's Vibe very stiff front wheel
Hello,
We had the same problem when we bought our Dash, 2 weeks ago.
When we compared it to an other Dash from one of our friend it was unbelievable. We exchange our wheel and we undersatood that the problem wasn't the wheel but where you put the wheel.
We cleaned it and removed the excess of paint with a light sand paper.
The result was magical, now it works really well, we can turn just with one finger.
Hope that helps.
The back wheels of my
Hi,
This sounds like your axle washers are bent. I would suggest that you get replacement axles and starlocks. You can usually get these on eBay.
Hope this helps.
How can I stop my
I don't think that's possible. the front wheel usually doesn't have a lot of pressure on it, so its a little bit in the air some times, and that's what makes the wheel wobbling.

We have become so frustrated with the front wheel
hi there. i just had this same problem. and to be honest i am unsure of EXACTLY what the problem was, but i just took it into the store of where i bought it and told them that it wouldnt turn, or became really stiff. only way i could push the pram as well at most times was to lift the front wheel off the ground.
i took it in and they took it out the back and about 10 minutes later they bought it back to me all fixed. i also had one of my friends had the same problem and she took hers in.
Just take it back, and say you didnt spend this much money for it not to do its job and they should fix it for you. you do have a 12 months warrenty on it so should not cost you a dime. good luck.
How do I unfold a

Wheel bearings on E3 phil and Teds stroller
We had a similar problem. You can get replacement axles from the Phil
& Ted website http://store.philandteds.com/parts/index.cat for
US$8.99 plus postage and you can get new bearings (FR8-ZZ Flanged
Bearings 1/2" x 1 1/8") from www.usabearingsandbelts.com for US$7 per
pair including postage. (you'll need a pair for each wheel). If you buy
the whole wheel option (US$39)from Phil & Ted it doesn't come with
the axle and the axle definitely does not come with bearings. ;( Trust
this helps.
