we have a vauxhall zafira v reg and ive noticed a steady oil leak under the front passanger side of the engine, i dont know what the part is called and was hoping for some help... if you look under the engine,,,, whilst laying in mud, it seems to be on the right side at the very front and looks like a bolted on square shape, maybe to the gear box or sump not sure,, sorry this is so vague. the oil seems to be around the edge of that you can also put your hand down from the top right and touch it.... help Read more

I consider myself, with senior years, to have a good basic knowledge of dealing with replacing general parts on the various cars that I've owned. But I confess I'm 'stumped'. Can someone explain how you replace the rear brake bulb on a 2002 Mercedes E270 CDI. Read more
On some of these,the brake light is an led cluster and can only be replaced as a complete assembly.

Yes many times. Connect your test lamp earth clip to a good earth. Switch on the HRW and touch the probe onto the terminal at one end and then the other to establish which end is the 12v supply. Having determined which end is the supply follow very gently each element in turn with your probe. The lamp should get dimmer as you go, but when it goes out you have located the break.
Hi,

We are thinking of replacing our Nissan X-Trail 2003 model with 105k miles as it is getting a bit long in the tooth and we need to go to a 7 seater. We fancy a Kia Sorento 2.2 2011/12 model KX2 standard. Can you see any problems with this plan, in particular does it have DPF issues and does it have a belt or chain? many thanks. Dave.. Read more
Have a test drive, compared to the Xtrail driving a Santa fe,( which i would think is similar?) i found the car awful to drive, couldn't get out of the car quick enough, bought a Mazda CX-5 instead, but not a 7 seater.
Santa Fe has had some quite different suspension settings over the years - and can be sensitive to tyre pressure settings - Sorento will be different again....
I have been very happy with my 5 year old i30 iwned from new, but recently the trim on the front passenger internal door handle has become razor sharp, resulting in 3 badly cut fingers for adult members of my family. Goodness knows what would happen with children's fingers.
Having Googled the problem it seems to be well known. After the last cut finger I contacted Hyundai UK who refused any type of goodwill payment, as the car is 3 months beyond its warranty period. Their suggestion was to pay the local dealer £87.42 each tio replace the handles.... Read more
The cheap and lasting answer to sharp edges on an interior handle is a file and gaffer tape. Last the lifteime of the car.

That is an error message. Either the temp is above 70C, below -30C, or the thermo sensor is faulty. (this is going from the handbook, we've got a Shogun Sport, which is essentially the same vehicle).
Alternatively, try disconnecting the battery again for 10 minutes, and see if the sensor starts working again.
