  • MAZDA 3 TS2 AUTO '57 plate - Starter does NOT ALWAYS turn engine 23 Apr 2013 (Forum)
    When ignition key is turned the starter does NOT ALWAYS turn. First I thought it a solenoid fault, so the starter motor with solenoid were replaced. But this intermittent fault is still there. Could it be the ignition key/lock or the gating for the automatic selector lever

    I have a Volvo V70 D5 diesel automatic, 2004.  A few months ago a slight vibration used to occur between about 60 and 65 mph.  Now the vibration occurs between about 60 and 75mph. Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this? I'm not sure if it is speed or engine related.
  • Mercedes E Class saloon - which one to buy? 5 Nov 2012 (Forum)
    Looking to treat myself to a 2/3 year old E Class saloon. Needs to be automatic and I quite fancy the flippy paddles to gearshift.  I like my cars to be fairly quick  but not to AMG standard. Therefore fuel economy is not an issue here. Can anybody recommend a model and also what
  • Volvo V50 2.0l diesel - volvo v50 brake caliper tool. 20 Oct 2011 (Forum)
    Hi. The rear brake caliper piston requires winding back into the cylinder to change the pads. Questions are precisely what tool is required, who sells it, and does the handbrake automatically self adjust? Finally is it safe to put a spot of engine oil to seep down the handbrake pivot

  • Impact of sunroof and alloy wheels on CO2 2 Jul 2009 (Forum)
    I was just reading the HJ road test of the i10, and the following caught my eye: "It?s a shame the sunroof and alloys pull the Style model over the CO2 limit, but hardly surprising that the proper 4-speed torque converter automatic does." http://www.honestjohn.co.uk/road_tests/index.htm?id=313
  • Looking for a Car for SWMBO 4 Feb 2009 (Forum)
    The criteria I have been set that it must be an automatic with a reasonable amount of power, i.e not a 1.2litre auto clio like she drives at the moment. It also needs to be reasonably high for ease of access, but preferably not a 4x4. I'm thinking about a Mercedes Benz B Class which seems to tick

  • Ford Fiesta - good deal or not? 11 Aug 2008 (Forum)

    I need to change the car over the summer and a 2 litre automatic petrol Mondeo is in pole position. How critical was the facelift in Sept 2003? I know that these facelifts are often a chance to correct many early faults (rear suspension bushes?) but was this facelift of that type or just a bit more

    I have a year 2000 Vectra automatic which I have started having a problem with. When I slow down and stop the car used to go straight into neutral but it has recently stopped doing this and remains in gear so I now have to keep my foot firmly on the brake to stop it from creeping forward.
