• Mondeo wheel trims move on wheel 14 Sep 2004 (Forum)
  - Continental Premium Contact. They replaced the front tyres with Continental Sport Contact 2's under warranty but that didn't solve the problem. I've seen other Mondeos with wheel trims out of alignment with the valve, so I know I'm not alone in having this problem. Has anyone else had this problem and have

• Good designs spoiled! 26 Jul 2004 (Forum)
  - offset number plate looks like a trade plate. Citroen C2 - design spoiled by silly side window styling. Early 90's BMW 3 series - (when BMW still made good looking cars!)- oddly sculpted sill panel looked like it has been dented by driving over a high kerb! Cheers, Sofa Spud

  bolder-crawling beauty! Well that\'s what the website says - although to me the pictures on the website look more like a Land Rover than a Range Rover. http://www.i2itelevision.com/4x4 All 4x4 haters are banned from posting in this thread, as well as also being banned from watching the show.

• Fabia petrol - Groaning! 24 Jul 2004 (Forum)
  today. Needless to say, animal well behaved and refused to perform. Feel a really wally. Any ideas what it can be? Sounds like some pump is pressurising upon turning on the ignition circuit before starting engine. Noise seems to be coming from n/s engine bay. Should I worry? Advice most welcome

• Still got your 'ears on' ? 26 May 2004 (Forum)
  Does anyone still have and use CB in their car? I remember in the early 80's almost every other car sprouting a DV27/Firestick/K40 etc., but haven't seen any for ages, although I dare say some truckers still use them. Even Ford, IIRC, used to fit them to some new cars. Wouldn't be surprised
• Vectra rear suspension. Differing info. 22 May 2004 (Forum)
  I\'ve read on here that the rear suspension on the Vectra (mine\'s a year 2000 - X reg) is adjustable. My nearside tyre on the rear wore on the outer edge, suggesting either the tracking is toeing out or the camber angle is incorrect. Anyway, I\'ve had new tyres fitted to the front
• 106 rear brakes 21 May 2004 (Forum)
  Had anyone come across the rear wheel locking up on a 1994 106 XT petrol. ( not both wheels, just the passenger side rear wheel). Some issue with the brake cable or shoes...I am wondering if the shoe(s) is worn out and is out of place or something or that the insides could just need lubricating

  I have been offered a pug 1.9 205 gti thay is a non cat version, that the current owner uses with high octane petrol. From various pug websites it seems that only the later 1.9's fitted with catalytic converters will run on 95 ron unleaded petrol (and have a lower BHP), where the one'a prior
• pug 306 suspension probs? 17 Mar 2004 (Forum)
  Hi all A couple of weeks ago i noticed a loud grinding/grating/quick knocking noise coming from my front n/s on my 2L 306 xsi 1994. The noise is only noticable when accelerating from standstill or in 2nd gear and pulling away sharpish. There's no other noises when on full lock, turning corners

• More auction prices 4 Feb 2004 (Forum)
  Went to BCA Tewksbury today. Many bargains going through. Thought that a P reg Alfa GTV in black, for £4650 looked good (if you're not of nervous disposition) to £15 for a renault 15 with MOT till Nov 04. As always, small cars were strong. Up to 3 grand for S and T reg 3dr Clios. Considering I paid
