• Any - Polarised lenses 27 Aug 2012 (Forum)
   Often I’ve seen drivers peering into the sun in the afternoon and not seeming to know what the visors are for.  That seems to me to be quite hazardous. Because my old sunglasses are nearing the end of life I have at last bought a new pair to replace them.  The new pair are the real thing, polarised, something that I thought the old pair were, but the effects show that the old pair, although good, were not polarised.

• Audi A3 Fsi Sport 2.0 petrol - Audi; repair or scrap? 24 May 2013 (Forum)
  Would start when they attached their computer. It needed to go to another garage with a more sophisticated computer to diagnose fault. I drove car to new garage. It limped the 8 miles driving very badly. New garage diagnosed cam shaft sensor in audible. New garage told old garage it was a timing issue. Took car back to old garage. Got voicemail message saying old garage will pay new garage to time it up as they don't have the correct tools to do it.
• Ask HJ no longer worth it? 24 Aug 2020 (Forum)
  I guess when it is time for it's November service, I'll see how much the dealer will charge for just an oil change compared to a year 5 service. Ive noticed the same old questions keep cropping up: what's the best \ cheapest dashcam, what's the best car for a 20 \ 70 year old, what's the best automatic small car etc, etc.

• Mercedes dealer problems 2 Jan 2004 (Forum)
  One new C32 was in a dealership somewhere but it was the wrong colour and specification. The garage offered to get this car for her but would be happiest to give her her old C43 back again three months later! No price or delivery date for the new C55 yet. Where does she stand? She doesn\'t want her old car back, doesn\'t want a black C32 with funny spec.

• Recommend a battery charger? 26 Jul 2021 (Forum)
  Hello, I'm wiondering if anyone could recommend a good but reasonably-priced battery charger? I have an old charger which is fine for my old car with a lead acid battery, but I believe they aren't suitable for AGM and EFB batteries.  I need one that will do for both as my wife's car has the AGM battery and mine has an EFB and start/stop usage.
