I've just acquired a 2004 Citroen C5 saloon that's done 100,000 miles. I've been driving it for a few weeks now and have an anti-pollution warning light on the dash. Is this serious? There is some service...
My 4-year-old Mazda 3 1.6 diesel has done 63,000 trouble-free miles. I live in the country so don't do many short trips (the nearest shop is 7 miles away). I am told by the Mazda dealer that my next service...
I am now facing the third replacement of the Eolys fluid bag on my Peugeot 207. This is a serious issue if I am to believe my Peugeot garage - this stuff is highly toxic and carcinogenic. Peugeot can...

I am interested in a Ford Kuga Diesel, but have read that it may have an Eolys additive system on it. Going on various friends' bad experiences with this sort of set-up, I absolutely will not buy a diesel...
A couple of months ago, I bought a secondhand 2007 Citroen C5 2.0 HDi auto. This is obviously a rep's car, given the 72,000 miles on the clock. Again, no problem, as this is good, honest mileage and the...
