I changed my wishbone and track rod end today. After refitting I grabbed the wheel at 3 and 9 oclock and there was quite a bit of play with a slight banging noise but no play when i shook it at 6 and 12 oclock. I did not try this before i changed the wishbone and track rod end so dont know if it was like this before. Sometimes when I drive I get a bang from the same side and a droning noise coming from somewhere. anyone any ideas? the car is a 1997 fiat bravo 1.6. Thanks Read more

The Seat dealership is advising me that as my car is 4 years old it needs to have it's belts (cam, auxiliary(??), water pump etc) changed. The price is considerable but my main concern is the possible damage to the engine if I don't get it done. The car has done less than 28k miles so does it need to be done now or can it wait and for how long? Read more
With past experience of 3 cam belt's snapping on me i have finaly learned to have these fixed as soon as you can, if you have had the car 4yrs i would say change it to be on the save side or get another garage to look at it for you, a few hundred pound for the job to a couple of thounsand is a big difference, mine went at 26,438 on this car i have now,
hi guys
i have re-sync'd my remote keys on my year 2000 astra as they didnt work however all the doors lock except the drivers door (which is the only one i ever use lol) ive gone through the process a few times to make sure i'd done it right but each time is the same result. i'm starting to think something in the drivers door is faulty. any ideas on what it could be and how hard it would be to fix, any help would be appreciated...

Howdy folks, first time poster here. I recently purchased a 308 1.6HDi SR. I have been led to believe that I can purchase a cruise control stalk which just plugs in and the only necessary step to activate it is to get someone with access to peugeot planet software to tell the car it is present and activate it. Is this true? I have the part number and a price from Peugeot for the stalk, but it's kinda pointless to buy it if I can't activate it! Read more

Can any one help, my car makes a horrible loud squeek from the gears box when you change down a gear, as you let the clutch up!!! Also somtimes when you depress the clutch it does not come back up and i have to put my foot under it to lift the pedal back. It goes into gear fine, and does not seem to slip. any ideas?? Read more
Its at a point where it will cost more to change the clutch than the car is worth.
