  than swoop. 4) The tape won't play tapes and swaps sides until it turns itself back onto the tuner. 5) The electronic climate control seems to have a off time as well. The Temp only goes down to 14 and also the fan speed can be a bit dodgy. Air con doesn't seem to work very well but I'm not fussed
• Lights, Complex????? 11 Mar 2002 (Forum)
  to illiminate that, still no joy, I swapped the relay with the air con relay which are identicle, still no joy. I decided to ask my "friendly" local main dealer as to whether i could have faulty wiring in my vehicle and should I be booking it in under warranty. The only help they seemed to want to give me

  in this weather that the air con freezes his hands to the steering wheel! I could pass this on to him but Insurance still a bit crazy for a 22 year old (The Octavia is cheap because it's just the 75ps 1.416v) This forum suggested a Honda Jazz a few years ago as an idea for my sister who is not quite
• Citroen C1 - Misdescribed car sale 13 Mar 2015 (Forum)
  Hi All, After some advice about misdescribing of a vehicle I've purchased. The car (Citroen C1 VTR, £2900) was listed on ebay as having Air Con, but when I went to inspect the car I didn't check it was working (it was cold and it didn't even cross my mind to), but upon
• Ford Modeo 2003 - Intermittent dashboard fault 28 Sep 2013 (Forum)
  it comes back again.  Sometimes it lasts the whole drive. I have to use my sat nav to work out what speed I'm doing instead. The only dial that works all the time is my petrol one.  My other current issue is my air con won't switch off at all. So I'm going through fuel like nobodies business

• Economical reliable commuting diesel, help please! 26 Oct 2009 (Forum)
  , the rear brake discs need changed (just done the fronts), the air-con fan is squealing, and the service history can best be described as "partial" (20k, 40k, 55k, 100k, 120k, 135k, not main dealer). It's had timing belt, radiator and EGR valve all replaced this year. I'm looking to spend around 7k or so
• Skoda Octavia II (2004 - ) - Five weeks with the Octavia 6 Jun 2008 (Forum)
  would have put in the Honda for the trip to France (and the Honda was an estate which we would load up to seat level). Performance and economy did not suffer that much with the load (still 55mpg loaded and with air con on most of the time). Stereo is good although the CD changer is largely redundant

• My new way to save some diesel 28 Jun 2006 (Forum)
  turned 52). I have dusted off my old mountain bike - a Dawes model I bought back in 1984 and made with 531 racing tubing. It is light as a feather with 18 gears and I have a gel saddle cover. It has none of the mod cons like suspension of current models, but it does what it says on the tin - it gets me
• Mazda MPV 7 Mar 2004 (Forum)
  and offered everything I want/need. The sunroof was very nice and a bonus in a car with air-con. I was, however, a little disappointed with the seating. At around 5'8" tall I found the head/ shoulder room available in the middle outside seats very limited. Also the various seating configurations were

• '54 Fiat Punto Dynamic 1.2 S-A (Dualogic) - Good money after bad? 29 Nov 2015 (Forum)
  battery it sometimes doesnt start. If the car stalls due to the gearbox now, she has to wait ten minutes for it to suddenyl decide it will turn over. All lights, air con etc have to be turned off for it to start. which led me to think it may be a voltage regulator issue. At this point the car
• Renault Scenic - Help me value my Scenic? 11 Apr 2015 (Forum)
  . -Air-con isn't cold, and hasn't been since it went from freezing to nothing overnight two years ago. -Had the DPF innards removed 3 years ago (when still perfectly legal). Sailed through every MOT since, including one since DPF removal was banned but have to assume new owner will want to reverse
