• Honda Civic Type S - Honda Civic Type S VSA Modulator 10 Dec 2013 (Forum)
  I have a Honda civic type S 54 plate, The VSA light plus the exclamation light is on. the Honda garage said following a diagnostic the VSA modulator needs renewing at a cost of £1600 +.  If I bought one from a breakers yard can it be fitted and work or does it have a code from the donating car?
• Volvo S 60 27 May 2003 (Forum)
  Are modern volvo\'s as durable as those made in the 1980\'s such as the 740 and 240 model range. I seem to remember that these cars regularly sailed passed 100k and could go on for 2 if not 300k with ease (provided of course they are serviced regularly).
• Suzuki SX4 S-Cross - Suzuki -SX4 -S Cross -1.6 - motorway fuel economy? 22 Feb 2019 (Forum)
  I understand that this is a common problem on cars that don't have 6th gears, as the engine is operating at much higher revs (almost 4000 rpm). I am consider buying an SX-4 S-Cross. Just wanted feedback on whether the 1.6 petrol S-Cross has the same problem. HJ's review and other review sites do mention that this engine needs to be worked hard, in order to make progress.

  Jaguar S-Type leaking water - how can I fix it? 23 May 2014 (Ask HJ)
  My 2006 Jaguar S-Type has started leaking water in the front footwell. Any idea what the cause could be?
• Jaguar S-Type (1999 - 2007) - S-type - good deal? 16 Jun 2008 (Forum)
  I'm toying with a very late S-type diesel. The car I've seen is in sport guise, no chrome, very smart dark colour an cream leather inside - lovely! It's only 9 months old, about 13,000 miles, cost new about 30k. Now going for under 20k, it seems the XF has hit residuals of the S-type.
• Cuban Cars ... 27 Feb 2005 (Forum)
  Watching that James Bond tosh last night, with JB driving a 50's American monster in Cuba; do they still drive those old cars from the 30's and 50's out there, or are they allowed imports now ?!

• Mercedes 350 S Class saloon. - Mercedes s class experience 20 Jun 2016 (Forum)
  However basic driving is a doddle and you don't feel to be taking up the whole road. Sadly for me the courtesy car company will soon collect their S class and give me the more usual hatchback. Still having the car for for Father's day was was excellent.

• Ford S-MAX (2006 - ) - Problem with new 2.2 tdci S-Max 2 Oct 2008 (Forum)
  I suspect bodged mapping by Ford, when they tried to implement the single turbo conversion. Anyone else driven a 2.2tdci in an S-Max or Mondeo yet ? Experienced the same problem ?
• S-Max to go same way as Signum 23 Jul 2006 (Forum)
  Saw a new S-Max while passing my local Ford dealer today and it looks quite attractive, albeit they had a new Galaxy along side and I had to wonder why the front-end looks to be the same on both models? I would have thought this would dilute the image of the S-max somewhat.

• Fuel comp self calibration? - Ford S-max 13 May 2007 (Forum)
  Can you self-calibrate the fuel computer on a ford S-Max. Mine is about 15% optomistic and I know that you could self-calibrate the FC in the Mondeo's by using the two dials/steering wheel controls. If it can be done on an S-MAx, how? I know I can always deduct 15% off the claimed number but if it is easily fixable, I rather would.
• 4x4's to be banned in.....Paris 15 Jun 2004 (Forum)
  Yep, apparently it's true according to a radio news programme I heard this afternoon with a Labour MP - Paul Flynn ? - 4x4's will soon be banned from Paris! Given Red Ken's recent comments about 4x4's, I think if he gets re-elected there's a good chance he'll try the same tactic in London. Although I don't like them, slippery slope is a phrase which comes to mind.
