  • Mazda CX-5 - Car breakdown very soon after service 7 Aug 2025 (Forum)
    As a result, the injector needs to be replaced, an exhaust regeneration performed to clean it and a new battery, leading to a bill of almost £1000 including £400 just for the replacement injector. The car is 9 years old and has 110k miles on the clock, so it's not unreasonable that an injector would fail, but the timing makes me feel uncomfortable given the issues began almost immediately after the service.
  • Ford Focus ST - Used Car dealer purchase - Refund requested 20 Jul 2021 (Forum)
    He had to pay a week before the car was delivered, but they won't refund until they have the car back, which seems somewhat unfair given all the hassle that he has had to lead on to try and resolve. Where does he stand in all of this ? Regards

  • Honda Jazz - Find My Daughter a Car - final Entry 15 Mar 2020 (Forum)
    Its got a new MOT and the garage have done the advisories and a minor service (oil / filters) Everything works even though it is 12 years old, and its been looked after as far as we can tell by previous owners. On researching the Jazz in detail however there is a huge design flaw with them that leads to water in the boot. The seam weld at the top of the rear hatch on both sides is not always joined / sealed correctly and eventually leaks water down the inner panels which lands in the boot wheel well.
  • Vauxhall Zafira Tourer - Advice after MOT Fail 27 Jan 2020 (Forum)
    I was horrified to see that the MOT fail for dangerously worn brake pads is on there from 2018. This leads me to two conclusions. Either the brake pads had not been replaced in the February, which I paid for and still have the receipt for, or the garage thought that they would try and charge me for new brake pads which I clearly didn't need.

  • VW Golf MK4 PD TDI 115 YR 2000 - Loss of power and limp mode. 22 Jul 2015 (Forum)
    Once restarted the car returns to 'normal mode'. Since reading many forums of members with similar problems i have been lead to believe something could be causing the turbo to 'overboost'. I have even listened to the turbo when reving the engine and i can hear a 'whirring' noise from very early in the revs and once stopped reving the whirring noise takes a slight while longer to stop.

  • Ford Ka - cooling system and overheating 29 Dec 2013 (Forum)
    I've just had a bit of a saga with my 05 50k 1.3 duratec Ka cooling system and thought a few of my experiences might be useful to someone with this car. First problem was a split header tank which is a regular problem leading to lost coolant and overheating. Fixed it and thena few months later overheating again in a major way. system ran out of coolant and light came on. Found the plastic thermostat manifold on the right side was cooked and had broken letting rapid loss of coolant.
