I am buying a used Nissan micra 09 plate 1.5 diesel. It currently does not have bluetooth installed. However, i was wondering if nissan would be able to install it for me as an extra? My friend has bluetooth installed into the radio system, would this be possible to have installed into my car? Ideally i would like this. Or will i have to buy a gadget such as a satnav with bluetooth facility separately from somewhere like halfords? Help! Read more

Dads 57 plated K12 1.2 Acenta has Bluetooth as standard. Maybe a better radio is all you need, should be plenty at scrappers or on e-bay. You would probably need the steering wheel since the controls are on there.

My car insurer requires proof of all convictions, etc. over the last five years to renew my cover. I have only ever committed one offence, this being an SP50 on a motorway in early December 2006., with the SP50 therefore expiring in January 2010. The problerm is that I renewed my licence in May 2011 and so the offence does not appear on the paper section, while DVLA records of such offences are apparently deleted after four years (in my case, in January 2011). I am therefore unable to prove that the date of the SP50 lies ouside the insurer's five year window. Does anyone have any advice? Many thanks!

Another dangerous link - perhaps Moderators could get this "contributor" checked out ?

Don't open the link whatever you do !

This is an interesting issue. I guess this issue has its positive and negative side. And it
needs further study to come up with a good idea on how to resolve it.

I suppose it would be a common fault if you fit a new unit and it fixes the problem,because you are doing the same as a battery disconnect reset.hth

Hello after reading the previous posts, I have a similar problem with my 2001 galaxy 2.3...

I have a problem with the tailgate on my ford focus 1.6 Zetec opening, apparently on its own, when i'm driving! It has also started opening when I start the ignition and opens almost as soon as I close it again!

The offside passenger door also seems to have a mind of its own working intermittantly and usually stops working when it's deadlocked stopping me opening it altogether when it does and makes me wonder if the two problems are linked.... Read more

Just checked, there are no 2.0 TSis with 160bhp on the Austrian official VW used car website either, I would expect all the same cars to be available her as in Germany. Either it's a 1.4TSi with 160hp, or it's a 2.0 with a different power output.

I was getting excited about a new Volvo V40 then my mates said the parts and servicing costs caused them to get rid of their Volvos. Does any one know of a comparison of prices between manufacturers of top end hatch like the V 40?

I have a Volvo and a Merc...both quite high mileage and I have found the costs not too bad at all. I don't go near main dealers and the indies I use are pretty good at saying what the costs will be before they start. I found Volvo main dealers very expensive and the Merc ones even more so. To give Merc their due they do offer a good percentage off labour for older cars and the owners club membership gets 10% off parts and labour for anyage. I have friends with Fords and Audis who who getbigger bills than me.
