    The 2001 Audi A4 is a clever car it tells on the display(spanner icon) the time/miles to its next service. But how does it know when oil, filters, brake fluid etc., have been changed? And what does it mean when the display shows 'dashes' for time and miles not any figures? Brian

  • Black boxes 8 Oct 2004 (Forum)
    All new cars sold in the USA will be required to have a black box fitted. It seems they will be able to check out the way the car is driven, speed, hard braking etc and store it for later viewing. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,132056,00.html How long before it happens here ? Perhaps
  • Pug 306 Bent Hub? 29 Jul 2004 (Forum)
    I had a wheel bearing replaced by a Unipart garage. They said they had difficulties removing the old bearing. Ever since there has been a brake shudder from this side. I tried new disks, but there the rotation was still eccentric. What else can it be? A bent hub or misaligned bearing?
