I would recommend Autovaux, they supply all sorts of Vauxhall spares, OE and OE quality.

Their postal service is very reliable and fast, and I have found them helpful and friendly....

I haven't incurred this but thought I would ask for opinion here. In Cheddar last week I saw a sign that said that the fine for parking there without permission or paying (sorry didn't notice whether it was private or local authority) would be £200 per HOUR.

I am wondering whether that is in fact legally enforceable? Can such a fine just be made up and applied?... Read more

Didn't you come across this in the legal section of this site?

My R reg fiesta keeps blowing fueses, the RAC have said it could be the fuel pump, however it also has a problem of cutting out when slowing down but they said its not related. i have taken to three different garages but beacause it doesn,t do it all the time they can;t find anything wrong. I don't want to buy a new pump if this is not the problem. Please help as it is driving me mad and no one can give me any answers! Read more

Thank you for your reply, i will get my garage to take a look. Would this be the reason for the cutting out when slowing down (although not all the time) as well, as the RAC guy seems to think its a different problem?

if a main dealer is changing a clutch is it policy to change the slave cylinder the vehicle had 60000 miles on the clock Read more

Standard clutch overhaul usually consists of replacing three items:-driven plate,clutch cover and thrust bearing.

Any other clutch-related items are only replaced if showing signs of excess wear or fluid leakage....

Just been watching a motoring program on N24 and it explained what the word Mito means,its actually short for Milan and Torino where they apparently make them.

Piece of useless information. Read more

I think it was going to be called 'Milano' but the workers in Turin objected.

Subjectively it looks to me as if Fiats and Alfas are the subject of fewer complaints on this forum than they used to - indeed there are plenty of other makes which feature more often....

Hi,

my garage phoned me up earlier and want to offer a brand new 107 for the same, or even slightly less monthly payments. My lease agreement doesn't end until next August??... Read more

Got a similar offer on a sale not lease-offered new car,lower payments(HP),paused long enough to ask "what colours available?".Three days ,later-new car.I can only think that they had a customer for the car I owned and were trying to move what I was offered.However going back to that dealer several years later,I was told that neither the salesman or the sales manager was employed by them any longer-commenting that they made more on their sales than we did!

Did you change all the electrics including the ecu. Your time scale is not clear has it run properly at one time or not.

My speedometer is fluctuating and the abs & asr warning lights come on. This is an intermittent fault. Some pne said it could be the gearbox speedo sensor but I have no idea how to take it off and fit a new one. Can any one help? Read more
