• Vauxhall Cavalier (1988 - 1995) - stiff electric windows. 21 Aug 2007 (Forum)
  Do I need to lubricate anything to make the electric windows go up and down easier? They are sluggish at certain spots, and the n/s/f creaks when partly wound down. I'd rather not take the doors apart if at all possible! I notice that pulling up on the windows by hand when closing them helps them a bit! If they need something, what, & where to get it?
• Autoglym competition 7 Aug 2007 (Forum)
  You had to answer what the make and models of cars are that they show. There are 5 and I know them all apart from the second, it is a Jaguar but which model? I think S type but the pic doesn't tie up with pics on Jag website. Any definite answers? [Yes I am bored on Sunday night!] -- 2007 Seat Altea XL 2.0 TDI (140) Stylance 2005 Skoda Fabia vrS
• 87 Polo 1.3 - Headlights blow wiper fuse 15 Jul 2007 (Forum)
  Hi all, I have a 20 year old VW polo 1300 coupe S, it's a good runner but recently every time I turn the headlights on it blows the fuse for the windscreen wipers. Could it be any number of things or is it likely to be something fairly straight forward?
• Vectra V6 CDX (1998) - No Heaters. 29 Jun 2007 (Forum)
  ve got no heaters. They blow very well but it's just cold air, not hot. Can you tell me what the problem is? It?s got climate control, and the temperature runs at 90 degrees if this helps, thanks for any suggestions, messa. {Shouting, ie typing solely in upper case amended. DD}
• Audi A3 seat problems 5 Feb 2007 (Forum)
  I've got an S-reg Audi A3 1.8T 3dr, and having put the driver's seat forward one day, it won't go back into place again. The rear of the seat clicks upright, but the entire seat rises up (as when you try to put it forward), and won't stay down.
• Mondeo gearbox oil changing 28 Jan 2007 (Forum)
  I have an 'S' reg diesel manual estate that has done 120000 miles now so feel a change of oil is due. Am I right in thinking that the box is refilled through the level plug on the front face of the 'box? Can see no other way.
• Auction find 24 Jan 2007 (Forum)
  In the room with next weeks junk, sitting in all their glory, were two beautiful immaculate old Daimlers, I think from the 50's, plus one outside in the yard. All are according to the staff, in full working order .They are, sadly, being sold by an executor. Usually if they have a car or van it is from a bankruptcy and go for peanuts - wonder what will happen to these beauties.
• What to look for after a wheel loss 13 Dec 2006 (Forum)
  Does anyone have any experience of what the likely collateral damage is going to be (bar the new wheel/s) and how to play the situation (knowing that my wife doesn't want to go near it again)?

• Dull Punto Mk1 Headlights 22 Aug 2006 (Forum)
  Taking them apart the reflectors do not look overly dull and the glass is not dull or marked. A new seat would be hideously expensive but the danger of getting s/h ones from a breakers is no telling if they will be ok ,bearing in the mind the current ones appear to be fine. Any suggestions ?
• Anti-4x4 juggernaut 21 Aug 2006 (Forum)
  An article at http://tinyurl.com/ox7us has interesting views on the recent reports about 4x4 drivers and mobiles. It?s not a motoring or pro-4x4 site, by the way. It prides itself on its rational, critical approach. The article ends: ?This is another ropey attempt at demonstrating that 4x4s are bad; that they are symbols of greed and a reckless disregard for others.
• Model demise? 2 Aug 2006 (Forum)
  Its an 04 and it might be time to have another one. But, has anyone heard when it will cease production? I know the S Max looks good and I wouldn't have two seats in the house, but have you seen the luggage cover position? Thieves look here please! The Alhambra is still the best for me. But would the purchase of a dying model be a sound move?
