One of my favourite lady friends is looking to change her car as she needs a comfortable mile muncher due to a change in jobs, family living a long way away, and the fact that her 02 Astra is getting through oil like the Queen mother used to get through Gin & tonics.
Anyway she is completely taken with a 56 plate Citroen C5 we saw at the local dealers, which is a 56, 1.8 petrol engine and seems immaculate, FSH one owner 48 K miles and is up for only 3.5 grand.... Read more
Got the car.
It was totally immaculate 48 K miles and drives beautifully, with a freah MOT even though there was almost 5 months left on the old one, it looks and feels like new car so we didn't mess about....
I took my car to the garage as it stopped working after not being used for the month od December. The AA suggested that I get my coil pack tested. Investigation by my garage showed that My No 4 Injector was faulty. I have had my No 4 Injector replaced and the spark plugs changed. The coil pack and battery were checked over.
I have been driving it now for two weeks and the Airbag light is now permanently on and it beeps when I apply the handbrake. The speedometer now no longer moves from zero.
Any ideas what is wrong and is it safe to drive? Read more
Hi i was wondering if you managed to figure out what the problem was? I have just bought the same car and the speedo stays at zero as well as airbag light being on and hanbrake beeping,thanks
I need to replace the passenger side dippled headlight bulb on my 2002 A3.
Although I can unclip one side of the casing protecting the bulbs, there is not enough room to move it away due to the placement of the battery.... Read more
Thanks for your advice, Peter. I took the battery out and replaced the bulb. Regards.
After a recent success through the Small Claims Court process I discovered that sending mail Recorded Delivery, does not necessarily mean that the addressee has to accept delivery. The dealer in question had refused to sign for delivery. This explains why I did not get a single reply to any of my letters. Royal Mail had to open all my correspondence to find my address and then return the letters which obviously caused some delay before I became aware the returned letters had not been read. It was only when the dealer received notification from the Court that there was any response. Fortunately my claim was successful and my money refunded in full. Read more
Thanks for that, just what I now do. Hope this alerts others who thought otherwise.
My Insignia covered only 3,800 miles before the clutch and DMF failed. Bill for £1680. Anyone else with this problem on low mileage Insignias?
Why the Insignia was awarded the 2009 "Car of the Year Award"? The more I read about VX faulty DMFs and clutches, the more I despair. Pity the senior management didn`t share the same attitude and stopped playing the "wear and tear" get out of jail free card.

I hope someone can help me. I have read the previous posts but would like help on the specific issue of driver details.
My car was parked outside my home (public road) and a driver damaged my car and fled the scene. My car now has a set of scrapes and dents.
Luckily the car number plate, colour and make as well as the gender of the driver was all noted down by a neighbour. Phoned police straight away and said that they would put a marker on the vehicle and also to make a formal report at the station.
It turns out that no such marker was done or even possible, and it is the job of one single police officer to handle the incident and that it could take up to 2 weeks to deal with. By which time, the driver could have fixed any damage and deny any wrongdoing.
Just annoyed that with so much detail to go on, and it being quite a serious offence (failing to stop and report?), that the police do not have much sense of urgency.
Phoned insurance co. but they need a name or an address of driver for legal dept to get going.
Has anyone experienced this type of incidence before, and does anyone recommend any steps to achieve a good and prompt result.
Thanks. Read more
Was reading some posts and thought she may have left us, but whatis the dark side lol?
Hi I have a 1.6 petrol renault megan scenic 02, It has suddenly developed a intimitent starting fault. When you turn the key all of the electrics turn on however nothing from under the bonnet as if the battery is dead or the starter motor is jammed. Battery is absolutely fine and jump starting does not make a blind bit of difference, had a new starter motor and fly cable and all the wire connections checked with no answer to what is wrong with it.. The car does bump start and this is what we have to resort to even when the AA came to help it resorted to this. Is anyone else having/had the smae problem? We have ran out of ideas please any suggestions or help would be greatly apprecaited.
