Sounds too good to be true. However if it works as described, it has massive potential.
“ Synthetic fuels are made by extracting hydrogen via renewable energy, and capturing it liquid form with carbon dioxide. Compared to pump fuel, eFuels emit fewer particulates and nitrogen oxide as well.”

Any ideas...?
Car drives fine however when clutch is disengaged (pedal down) there is a loud rotational knocking/rattling which seems to come from the entire powertrain. Does this in neutral or with any gear engaged. Car stationary or moving. On releasing the pedal it goes quiet. Clutch function is normal.... Read more
its more likely the release bearing is breaking up and knocking on the pressure plate fingers, problem will be the amount of damage occurring to the pressure plate will destroy the fingers and will not allow you to change gear at all ...
Hi.
I recently got a section 59 letter from the police stating I have been riding in a careless or inconsiderate manner. I've never been stopped by the police before but this letter threatens to seize my vehicle. I'm not aware of any occasions where I have been careless or inconsiderate. Is there any way I can get this removed as I feel its unfair to issue me with this without anyone stopping me? Also I'm worried my bike may have been cloned. Please help Read more
Nowadays a benefit might be to direct the headlights in the direction you will be turning.
I have noticed that some Land Rover/ Range Rover vehicles now have a permanently illuminated amber light above the head light. Presumably there is a reason for this that is way beyond my level of comprehension. Could anyone explain the reason for this "innovation"?
Sitting at a round about during day light there was a land Rover visible on my right hand side, I could not see the front or drivers side of this car so it would be very easy to mistake this for an indication of the drivers intent to turn left , as it was they drove straight over. I could see the light was not flashing so did not assume it was indicating but I wonder if these lights are also the indicators? Read more
I have noticed this twice now in locations about 20 miles apart.. I did wonder if it was a North America thing. If i owned one I wouldn't want it incorporated into the head lamp
I have a 2007 1.4 16v zetec, everytime I fill her up until she cuts off at the pump and drive her home she says completely full. The next day she is half a gallon gone already. What is it doing that? I can't tell how many mpg if I can't tell how much I'm putting in Read more
Car fuel tanks are mostly plastic nowadays. They are also now fitted under the rear or centre floor since being moved from the rear of the car for safety in a collision.
So by necessity they are pretty much flat in profile....
Considering an electric vehicle and having a wall box installed. It is permissible or acceptable to have the wallbox mounted inside a double garage. Does charging an EV emit any flammable or noxious gasses.
For security inside the garage is better, also as I am one of those strange people who regularly garage both cars so this would be more convenient. However do not want to risk a fire or have any health issues. Read more
<< The cable monitors temps etc and suspends charging if it gets too hot, starts again once cooled down. No idea if this has happened, I don't live in the garage. >>
You clearly need a smart meter, Skidpan .......
Whoops! Bit of an error there with 'fighting off the British Built Land Rover Defender!!!
I think if you check, the Defender is built in Slovakia in a new factory also building the Discovery 5.
The decision to site manufacturing outside the UK brought massive and strident complaints from the 'old guard' supporters of the previous Defender and its direct forebears which were all Solihull. These supporters vowed never to by one as they are not British built - probably an academic claim, as they also stated they would never buy one because of the over-inflated price............
