Driving home with family in the car - drivers side electric window “decides” to go all the way down; passenger side electric wing mirror goes all the way up and then drivers side control unit becomes unresponsive. Have stripped the unit and cleaned the contacts; checked all relevant fuses and still no joy - would MASSIVELY appreciated any other ideas as currently can’t get window up and thinking how will keep secure tonight. Thanks in advance Read more
No water ingress but had a mate round this morning with diagnostic...he managed to get the window back up using his tablet...but whenever we opened the drivers door window automatically came back down (or indeed when we put key in ignition having entered through passenger door)...there is a parking light out so replacing this morning (in case drawing wrong voltage); other than that best guess is the drivers door lock playing up...unless there are other ideas...
I have just started looking for my first car and a bit confused due to the wide variety of options available. I have to admit that I am fairly new to vehicles and any help would be appreciated.

GM amended the engine and removed the problem at some point in the past few years,“

Not sure how many manufacturers have decided that they need an MPV which looks like a cross between a a transformer and a Manga comic escapee, but Toyota obviously did, and actually went ahead and made it!

At least you would not "lose " your car in the carpark.
Hi
Is there anybody out there tried hooking up an Android box (or something similar) to those displays using the RCA input in the panel located in between the front seats? I want to stream video from mobile phone to those displays, or play locally using generally speaking the SD card slot on those devices. Any help is appreciated. Read more
I thought it was due to the brand of tyre as sometime brands/makes can do this supposedly.
But it doesn't matter what tyre I have on the car it happens!... Read more
My first thoughts would be to inspect for worn shock absorbers or springs
Hi there, i’ve just won an car at an auction and it hasnt got MOT or Tax.
The option of getting it delivered by a transportor is quite long and expensive and i was wondering if i was able to drive it myself to a test centre near my house.
Now i’ve been reading that its legal to drive a car withot mot/tax to a pre booked test but i was wondering if there are any restrictions behind. I was planning on pre-booking a test and drive it there from the auction house but the only problem is, i live roughly 3 hours away from the auction place so would that be a problem? Even though i’d be driving the car straight to the MOT test center?
Thanks Read more
There is no restriction on the distance between where the vehicle begins and ends its journey to the MoT station. The only requirement is that the test must be pre-booked and you must drive directly there.
There were two cases I came across which challenged this. The first involved a driver who set out to drive from Birmingham to London for a test. He had recently moved to Birmingham. A garage in London took care of his car and he wanted that to continue, including them carrying out his MoT. He was stopped in Birmingham, explained the situation but was issued with a fixed penalty for no MoT. The officer insisted the testing station had to be within a "reasonable" distance and did not even bother to check with the London garage that they had the car booked in (nor, it seems, with the relevant legislation). He declined the FP, took the matter to court and was acquitted. ...

Hi could you please help me? My serial number is M107192 thanks.
Just had the Haldex fluid and filter changed on my Octavia 4x4 (Haldex Gen 4) and was surprised how blinded the filter was, especially as VAG do not admit there is a filter.
The correct filter is HALDEX.111358
Lots of useful info here www.haldexrepairs.co.uk/
The Gen 5 Haldex has a non removable filter on the Haldex pump that apparently can be cleaned.
