Why has dealer offered me £250 not to apply for a replacement V5C? Read more

Without the new V5, then the OP isn't the legal new owner of the vehicle.

The V5 denotes the keeper of the vehicle, absolutely nothing to do with the owner....

Wonderful concepts! As usual, the questions start with costs. Read more

not many places you could use it its an offense to sleep on the roadside even in a layby(which is crazy) the only place you could use this is on a motorway service station to sleep in and they will charge you upwards of 30 pounds a night to sleep in the car park

Try Partsouq. You can get the part numbers from there or order the part.

It's also worth trying eBay, but do check the source/seller is reputable. e.g. good feedback and some history/UK Address. ...

Fobbing off is standard practice at VAG dealers I'm afraid,

Reject asap. Despite 100+ years since being invented the VAG group are still unable to produce a reliable internal combustion engine,

Hello

Advice sought my vehicle has the tell tale sign of fluid loss, due wet patches on floor. These are predominantly around about the front near side wheel. I think it is attributable to the Power Assisted Steering.... Read more

Have you checked what the fluid on the floor near the wheel is? Are you sure it is ATF not brake fluid? Is the appropriate reservoir showing any loss? IF you are using the car be very careful.

I watched a video of the prototype being test driven last year along with company founders being interviewed and was hugely impressed. Now the Sono Sion is set to go on sale late 2023 from around £21k, way cheaper than anything else comparable in size, and cheaper than any other EV's apart from a couple of small ones. And none of them charge themselves through solar energy!.... Read more

Something that light and slippery could probably easily be made compatible with the Gogoro electric scooter battery swapping infrastructure already in place here in Taiwan, if Gogoro thought it was in their interest.

This would remove range anxiety and concerns about battery life....

If you measure the distances between the bolt holes correctly and use the markings on the inside of the wheel you should see something like ET58 or something and say 4 x 115 (didtance between centres of bolt holesO will give you as an example 4 x115 et58 which you can then use to find what it fits, if you are lucky there will be a part number inside the wheel, etched into the aluminium.

Supermarkets have learned from government that motorist are an easy target for money.

So if supermarkets are having us over on the forecourt, how much are they having us over actually in the store with the likes of bread and milk just for starters.

Well, here we go again!
It’s no surprise that WE the MOTORISTS continue to be ripped off by all and sundry in the Rotten to the Core Oil/Fuel/Energy/ Companies along with SUPERMARKETS and the ever consistent inconsistent Government.
These BURGLARS continue to make OBSCENE profits at our expense but NOTHING is ever done about it.
It’s an absolute disgrace that the people of the UK are being fleeced of their hard earned money, falling into poverty and starvation whilst these despicable lot continue to line their own pockets.

WHY are these companies not brought to task in a court of law?
They need to be genuinely investigated, then put behind bars where they belong.

LEGALISED BURGLARS, the lot of them.

The last time I serviced my own car (a Passat back in 2007), OE filters were cheaper from the VW dealer than the own-brand/pattern ones from Halfords!
