  Snow here tonight in North Devon and a colleague has a 55 plate 'S' type diesel Auto' Traction useless in these conditions. Now I have guessed (and a small wager) that the gearbox has some sort of tiptronic/manual function up the left hand side of the gate thereby allowing him to select a higher
• Find the evidence for a possibly botched job? pic 26 Aug 2009 (Forum)
  I`m presenting the pic of the 1.9D again for a new test of detective work by the technically interested. It seems (not 100% sure)a bodge to me and there`s evidence of it if you click and expand the photo up to full size. It`s not the EGR blanking plate - it`s visible not hidden. I was going

  Peugeot Diesel 1769 non Turbo. Looking at my split N/S Inner Driveshaft Boot it seems like a straight shaft removal and slip the boot over the Inner joint from the inboard end using the Draper expansion funnel. However the Haynes manual reckons to unpeen the joint cover etc. Mine doesn't look
• BMW 3-Series E92 Coupe (2006 - ) - Replacement "normal" tyre pressures. 7 Feb 2009 (Forum)
  Having just switched from RFT`s to conventional tyres, the tyre supplier was not 100% sure as to the correct tyre pressure, they have inflated to the same level as the run flats. Could someone please confirm if this is correct or not ? Incidentally, I know H.J. is an advocate of RFT`s
• Horn location on 98 S-Class 8 Oct 2006 (Forum)
  Hi I am trying to find the location of the horn on a 1998 S-Class. I suppose I should get in quick and say that I am trying to find it to fix it, before somebody suggests listening to where the noise comes from :o) !! I have taken the plastic engine bay surrounds off both wings and had a good

• BMW 330CI Sport or X-Type 3.0 Sport 8 Jan 2004 (Forum)

• Zetec-s hesitancy AND cambelt service 3 Jul 2003 (Forum)
  Hi Two questions for y'all... 1. I have recently purchased a Fiesta 1.25 Zetec-s and am very impressed, apart from a slight hesitancy that feels as if the engine is "missing" when under load around 4000rpm. Any suggestions to what this may be? 2. The car has a FSH and has currently 61k
• S-Max and C4 Picasso: who's tried both? 16 Jan 2007 (Forum)
  I have, although neither very extensively. I don't need seven seats but quite often want more than four, and would value something that will carry an adult bike and some rear-seat passengers at the same time. This makes the C4P and the S-Max front runners because the last five seats fold in any
