Hi I have got a 2011 vauxhall insignia cdti (a20dth) engine , when I bought it the sign on dash came up with diesel particulate filter full carry on driving and service vehicle soon , so I thought I could drive it home and like they say drive it like you stole it to clear dpf but it didn't work so I took it to garage for forced regen , he phoned me and said that it had diesel runaway and they checked oil and was about 10 litres of oil and diesel in sump , so he said he didn't want to do it , so I picked it up and it was only running on 3 cylinder and smoking like mad but drove it about 3 mile down road and smoke cleared , thought I would do compression test and number3 cylinder no compression Read more

Police Scotland has spent some £12m on electric vehicles BUT almost nothing on charging points.

Hello guys,
What kind of requests should I put forward for a vehicle that wouldn't be viewed in person. As it is across the country. I've sent requests for more close up photos of the interior and of the bodywork. As well as video footage for both also. What else should I go about doing as the vehicle won't be viewed until it's paid for and arrived. ... Read more

Hi All,
First time poster here; could use some kind advice:
Found a BMW M4, 2017 plate, but Cat S. £25,000.
The most comparable model I can find (same year, v low mileage, number of owners(1), carbon fibre add ons, full BMW service history) is £36,000.
The owner tells me the damage (front left quarter) was repaired with BMW parts and to a high standard.
Would a mechanic be able to assure me of the quality of the repair upon brief inspection? Anything else I can do to get peace of mind?
Many thanks,
DK Read more

I'm looking for a sturdy, secure bike trailer that we can use to go about on neighborhood MUPS and bike paths now that my baby boy is 9 months old and I watch him on weekends. The walkways are all rather smooth. I did check at these briefly, but they seem to cost link deleted $50 and $500, and all but a few of the more expensive types have suspension.
I have a road bike and a hybrid, but because I don't intend to travel too fast with him on the back, I'll probably use the hybrid.... Read more
Your're probably right but the link was to a review site where the kid trailers were priced in £.
I will lock it now.

Many manufacturers are dropping their smallest and cheapest cars just at a time when money is said to be tight. At least Citroen are bucking this trend with a basic version of the C3 and the new Ami quadricycle. Read more
As someone who is always on the lookout for new online casinos to try, I really appreciated the level of detail that went into this article www.newsdirect.com/guest-content/7bit-alternatives . The author clearly did their homework, and it shows in the quality of the recommendations. I've already signed up for a few of the casinos mentioned in this article, and I'm loving them so far.
Can anyone give me the rear brake adjustment and hand break adjustment methods for my 2018 Micra. I hope they are not the self adjusting type that never work.... Read more
They are self adjusting so don't start trying to adjust things you will end up in a mess and expense.
Hi all, I’m looking for some advice please.
