My 2005 Streetka has been off road officially for 2 years and now back in legal working order Even the soft top is gliding open and shut - well at least as easy as it ever was. But no radio without the code long forgotten. Can you help please? Serial number M007678. Read more
Correct! It worked! Followed the link on another thread to Pumapeople so sorry to duplicate other posts. Wasn't finding my way round too well. Ace instructions on radio removal tho thank you and can recommend metal ground hooks designed to hold down garden netting to do the deed.
Hi all, my gs450h has duff AC. As none of the pipework was remotely cold, i suspected a leak. I was right. The ATS guy pressurised the system but it didnt hold. He says it could 'be anything' (obviously) but i didnt have time to start taking the system apart. I asked if the UV dye would be visible later when i took the car home, he said no, the dye is only visible when the system is pressurised.
Any ideas where i go from here? The condensor maybe? Or more likely, a seal somewhere.... Read more

How do I not end up with a bill of 1400 at the end of this when it goes pear shaped because this dealer is dodgy. Read more

Hi -
I run summer / winter tyres throughout the year. ... Read more
Winter tyres are more likely than not directional and so can only be swapped front to back if they are on their own rims.

Two triangles in Spain, no flip flops in Spain, spare bulbs, a fluorescent jacket for every occupant in the car, not the boot, ditto first aid kit, if you are first on the scene of an accident you must stop and check nobody needs first aid, remembering to put on you yellow tabard before you exit your car.
Very few tolls in Spain and diesel still cheaper than Petronius and cheaper than UK.
Driving to the south of Spain for two months twice a year a no brainier compared with fly drive and all the hassle and rip offs. Only 600 miles from Santander.
I have recently experienced a heavy clutch pedal and difficulty in obtaining 1st gear. This does pass and when driving the clutch can get heavy again. The slave and master cylinder was replaced approximately 4000 miles ago. Any advice would be very much appreciated. Read more
