  I've been offered a 2001 C5 2.2HDi at a very good price... the downside is, it has some declared faults... The suspension apparently raises itself up for no apparent reason - can anyone shed any light on this? Googling indicates that the Hydractive system on this model automatically raises
• Audi A4 SE 2.0 TDI Saloon (143hp CVT) - 2011 Reg - Any Red Flags - Audi Extended Warranty - Go-NoGo 15 Apr 2014 (Forum)

• Volvo V70 - fire hazard/damage who is responsible/pays 22 Oct 2013 (Forum)
  we can collect it. They have offered to replace the seat for £900. I was expecting a more concerned reply from Volvo. Is this not a defect if the manual says there should be an automatic cut off once temperature is achieved? Who is resonsible
• Peugeot 508, 3008; Mazda 6; Jazz; Colt; Yaris - What car to choose with £12000 budget 13 Dec 2012 (Forum)
  :-) I am looking for an automatic car that will be used for at least a year and then sold. Thus, cars with low depreciation are with high priority. I prefer buying either new or approved car. For example I was looking in Approved Peugeot 3008 and 508 models that after just a year lost about 40% value
• Nissan Micra SE K12 2003 - EPS / Power steering assembly pro 29 Dec 2011 (Forum)
  , maybe more than half the current value of the car. A solution would be to get a recon unit fitted (cost around £200 plus fitting) but, obviously, the dealer would not touch such a solution.   My question is whether a recon unit would automatically communicate with the rest

• Peugeot 607 - 607 3.0 Auto 'Clonks' into Reverse Gear 31 May 2010 (Forum)
  when I put it into reverse? Is this jolt normal when a tiptronic automatic 607 3.0 is put into reverse or does it indicate something wrong with the gearbox. Given that the car is in an auction it's impossible to test drive it before buying it. I've never had a 607 before but a few years ago I

  as I can gather, there are 2 tensioners and as the car has A/C I *think* it has the automatic tensioner (there's a vertical spring going upto the tensioner pulley & the square hole in the tensioner assembly that I apparently should insert a 3/8" bar to do the levering) and that I should be able
