If you ever travel up the M1, up to Woolley Edge Services and beyond - to the M62 interchange - you are in our local area.
I would put Woolley Edge northbound as just about the best sliproad in the country to get up to Motorway speed before entering - with it`s downhill sweep onto the M1.... Read more

I am looking to buy a 2007 Zetec Climate that is not badged as a Zetec Climate on the back, it has nothing displaying the model. I have looked at many (in excess of 30) other Focus's and not found another unbadged. Is this car straight or might it have had some kind of repair & respray? I have confirmed it is a Zetec Climate in the log book. Read more
If it's got aircon and a Quickclear screen it's a Zetec Climate.
I am looking to download a copy of a workshop manual/ haynes manual for a Citroen C2 as I am looking to do some work on one. I have a Haynes manual for a toyota carina e, but I am looking for a dealership one. Are these available? Also, is there a good website to obtain these (obviously I have the hard copy but I would like to have one on my screen as it keeps it clean!)
Thanks Read more
I bought a disc off Ebay for the Zsara because Haynes do not cover the later model. The one I got was a copy of the proper dealer system disc and in order to load it, I had to follow the badly translated instruction sheet in order to alter the network hardware address of my PC (not all PC hardware will allow this, but luckily mine did). This, presumably, was in order to mimic the cloned PC from which the disc had been copied. You had to do this every time you wanted to access the program. In addition, the whole program took ages to load (It’s for the whole Citroen catalogue) and another program was required to view the images. It took ages to get running.

I have a Sonic Line LM820WC cordless mouse, but I am unable to obtain the drivers for this item.... Read more
Are you sure it needs drivers? I have used two random cordless mice recently on an XP machine and they have worked immediately without problems.
Is there a button on the bottom to press with a biro, sometimes required to get them going? And/or on the receiver?
Hi all
I have recently had my brakes fixed. In the last week or so I have been having problems with the accelerator peddle. I have on a few occasions now caught the accelerator when I have pushed the brake, and it has just felt 'wrong'. I noticed today it seems to be lower to the floor than the other peddles, but still works ok, although it over revs but always has!... Read more
That bar under the pedal isn't this a bump stop to stop the pedal travel any further?
Karen if you put water in a pint glass and tilt it the water tilts too, so does the coolant in the expansion tank, stop worring and drive it.
I recently spotted a battery powered moped type machine from a Chinese manufacturer. Yes, I know they they are a load of rubbish but in spite of that, please would someone remind me of the name of the manufacturer...all I can remember is that the name began with letters RY and, I think was just five letters long.

Hi Kev.
My advice, having accidently disconnected the fuel line on this car is to leave it to a garage, to do the work, this engine is very difficult to bleed the air out the system, as there is no lift pump in the fuel line to prime the fuel up to the filter. It should I believe be changed every 3 years or 33 k mls....
