i recently bought my peugeot 206 cc quite happy with it and all its features but am scared something is wrong with my breaks as it does not respond when depressed until fully depressed. it is managable but i dont know what is wrong any suggestions people..i have not checked the fluid level though do you think it might be the problem?

This is a safety issue and you have not even checked the fluid level. I suggest you take this car back to a garage as just topping the fluid up will not help. If the system has run low and air has got in then the system needs to be bled and tested. Regards Peter

Hello,

Does anybody know whether the leather seats from a 2002 Skoda Superb would fit a 2000 Volkswagen Passat (B5 model)?... Read more

A few weeks ago the car started cutting out if I didn't keep my foot on the throttle. Put it in for a service and the guy ran some tests and found that there was no signaloutput from the ECU to cylinder 1, so in effect it is only firing on 3 cylinders.

I've been told that it is possible to jump the signal from cylinder 3.... Read more

Having read previous comments I intend to replace the run flats with conventional tyres when they are worn. The current ones have done 25000 miles. Is there any reason why this could not be done in pairs provided they are on the same axle? and where is the best place to purchase a space saver spare wheel? Read more

Just acquired a 2007 Tucson 2.00 CRDT Limited on a 56 plate. Question one. It has come with a nearly new set of Nexen CP641 tyres. I believe the originals were Khumos. Nexen aren't a budget tyre but they're not up there with the best and the main reason I've gone for a 4x4 is to make life easier if we have another winter like the last two, so it's important that the tyres perform reasonably in slippery conditions. Has anyone any experience of these tyres in winter conditions? Question two. Does anyone know if this model incorporates ESP as there is no control for it or is fitted and permanently active with no manual override as in my wife's Vectra. The handbook doesn't help. It does have TCS which can be manually controlled if that's of any relevance. Any advice gratefully received and thanks. Read more

I have just topped the tank of my 1.4HDI C3 and noticed that fuel is spilling from underneath the car. OK it was brimmed, but not overflowing. After a few miles the leak has appeared to stop. Anyone know if there is a relief valve, or some other device to vent fuel from the tank? I have looked under the back seat at the fuel pump and that is dry, so no leaks there.

I have just filled my citroen c3 1.4 diesel, and fuel has leaked from underneath the car. Does anyone know if there is a relief or overflow valve that could cause a leak ? I have checked the fuel pump area accessed from under the back seat and that is dry. Is this a case of a new tank ?? Read more

A friend of mine had a similar problem on his C3 turned out to be the neck of the fuel tank leaking.
