  • Car parallel of dog rejection Quiz 30 Jun 2009 (Forum)
    Yes. This canine friend, no doubt loyal and faithful and believing itself to be safe in it`s `pack` was now about to be sold on as it was no longer aesthetically pleasing. It`s difficult to `get your head` away from the dog - and some would say `shallowness` of it`s owners, but personality is driving that.
  • It`s dark - car engine - propshaft loose 25 Feb 2009 (Forum)
    It`s getting dark and you are in unfamiliar surroundings, the propshaft keeps jumping out. It wasn`t a problem when you set off this morning but now things are drifting a little - the sun goes down vertically and it`s dark within a few minutes.
  • Toyota MR2 (1990 to 2000) - Falken tyres for MR2 Turbo 23 Jul 2008 (Forum)
    I need to replace the tyres soon, so I started checking out tyre reviews. I'd decided that I fancied trying FK452's on my 17's. I went to get a quote for tyres today and was quoted for ZE-912's. I asked about FK452's but was told that the ZE-912's had replaced them and that they were the better tyre. As far as I can tell from online resources both tires are currently sold and both for slightly different applications.
  • Jaguar S-Type (1999 - 2007) - Anyone driven an S-Type 2.7D? 5 Jan 2008 (Forum)
    As you'll see elsewhere I'm considering a new XF diesel, and one of the problems with ordering a car based on reviews is that you (obviously) haven't driven it. Now I understand the engine's the same as the one in the S-Type, so I wondered if anyone had driven one of these (and ideally a Merc E270CDi or 280CDi - cos I've got the 280CDi and a comparison would be great). If you have, what were your impressions of the engine in terms of flexibility and poke - specifically responsiveness when overtaking in "A road" situations?
  • BMW etc model designation policy 10 Jan 2005 (Forum)
    Hi, I am getting a bit fed up with 318's having a 2.0l engine, C180's and C200's both being 1.8s, Saab 93 1.8t and 2.0t both being 2.0l. BMW 316's have been 1.6, 1.9 and 1.8 in that order!, 320's have been 2.0 then 2.2 if petrol though still 2.0 if diesel!
  • Oooh! Oooh! I found it! I found it! 2 Aug 2004 (Forum)

  • \"Free\" tracking check 16 Oct 2003 (Forum)
    My wife drives the car most of the time, and it\'s quite possible she\'s kerbed it at some point. It\'s equally possible I have done the same, and forgotten about it. But is the suspension set up that sensitive that every single time i get a tracking check, something needs adjusting?

  • Ford S-Max choices 22 Nov 2011 (Ask HJ)

  • Astra Elite CDTi S/S 5 Door Diesel - Replacement Third Party DPF for Vauxhall Astra 10 Apr 2024 (Forum)
    I currently own a 2013 Astra Elite CDTi S/S 5 Door Diesel  which is having issues with the Diesel Particle Filter (DPF). I've had it cleaned a couple of times and this seems to help for about 4-5 months but then it has issues again (even though I'm driving it on the motorway a fair bit).
  • Ford S-MAX - S-Max 2.0 Diesel or Petrol? 4 Sep 2016 (Forum)
    Having 3 teenagers (almost - youngest is 12) in the family, I've pretty much settled on a 2006-2015 (the previous model) S-MAX Titanium X.  Would like to get as new as possible, buget allowing.   Question is, should I go for the 2.0 Diesel or the 2.0 petrol?   Have done the math with my average 9.5-10k anual mileage + road tax and the petrol is coming in at around £600 more per year to run over the diesel.
  • Where's the best place to buy a used S-Max? 29 Aug 2014 (Ask HJ)

  • FAO HJ&Mods - Illustrating threads with photos? 19 Nov 2008 (Forum)
    What are Mod`s and HJ`s rules or views on this? It turns out that I have 50 megs of space of my own with our ISP. Enough to put photo`s illustrating a thread online via Tinyurl. Typical photo`s would be 3.25mb and I wouldn`t want to mess about reducing the size and quality - as they would be going onto my own site.

  • Who\'s fault? (Motor Accident) 7 Jun 2002 (Forum)
    He chose to overtake the car but whilst overtaking, the car decided to pull back into the next entrance of the garage and clearly without checking blindspots or mirors, he crossed my father\'s path and despite his braking, they collided fairly heavily. Who\'s fault is it and why? Thanks.
  • S Class Mercedes - is this madness? 12 Aug 2016 (Forum)
    Liability was admitted by the driver and agreed with the insurance companies. They for some reason gave me an S class at £300 and more A DAY! I reckon that has come to over £10k and £5K to fix ours and its worth at most £7,500. (Volvo V70 2008)
