  Buying an Audi A3 - 125PS or 150PS? 21 May 2015 (Ask HJ)
  I am thinking of buying a new Audi A3, with the seven-speed s tronic auto box, but cannot decide between 125 or 150p engine. Which would you recommend?
• Renault Laguna II (2001 - 2007) - 06 2.2 remote Tyre pressure sensor 2 May 2013 (Forum)
  My mate is having problems with the remote tyre pressure warnings on the dash. The dash info panel has always warned of slightly low pressure on the Front O/S tyre since he had the car. - but now seems worse. News Tyres were put on last week and now gave warning of puncture on Front O/S tyre (1.6 bar inidcated pressure). Checked pressure with 2 gauges as 2.0 bar, pumped up to 2.2 bar.

  Which 4x4? 21 Aug 2012 (Ask HJ)
  For some years we have driven Honda CRV and Toyota Rav4s. We would now like a more luxurious vehicle and have considered BMW X3 and Audi Q5. Have you any...
• Audi A4 1.9 TDi S-line or Honda Accord 2.2 CDTI? 5 Dec 2011 (Forum)
  The Honda Accord would be the great 2.2 CDTi in EX trim on a 57 plate so it has leather, sat nav and climate etc, whilst the Audi would be in S-Line trim with the reliable 1.9 TDI, the Audi is also on a 57 plate. I prefer the Honda looks wise and the engine is more refined and faster, but I like the badge image and style of the interior in the Audi whilst both have similar running costs.
• Nissan Micra S 54 - Short brake pedal travel 12 Nov 2010 (Forum)
  Have recently bought a Micra S 1.2 manual, 46000 on clock.  The problem I have is that the brake pedal seems to have a very short travel which means I have to slow down well in advance of junctions etc to save being propelled forward if I touch pedal too firmly.
• Omega 3.0 V6 - mystery coolant leak 13 Jul 2010 (Forum)

• No stock - orders only 13 Sep 2009 (Forum)
  Shopping about to replace our 2006 Corolla at the end of October. Hyundai have no stock of i30's, i20's or i10's. Kia very limited stock of Souls and are quoting November delivery. The Soul Samba is out of production and the facelifted Ceed is supposedly on sale from 1st Oct - no stock of existing Ceed.
• well done lady texter! 22 Jun 2008 (Forum)
  Nothing in front of Jag' outside lane. Brake lights come on, I ease off and for some reason now down to 45mph in o/s lane. I pull to inside lane and draw along side Jag' to see blond lady, mid 30's driving, male as pax, young child in back seat. Of course, she was texting and completely oblivious to all around her.

• 2.2dCi MPG? 28 Apr 2005 (Forum)
  I ahve just booked my Primera (new in Dec 2004) in for its 12K service on 10 May and when I rang up I asked them to take a look at the MPG - guy says "if you're getting over mid 30's you're doing well"! I told him in no uncertain terms that I would expect mid to high 40's with ease and am getting low 40's on daily 114 mile round trip commute. I used to get over 50 mpg out of my Jazz so I'm hardly heavy footed.
• 75000 mile Type-S, what needs doing? 7 Nov 2003 (Forum)
  Hi everyone, I'm now the proud owner of a Jap import Prelude Type-S (the 220bhp monster jobby). For a six year old car that's done 75000 miles it's in absolutely gorgeous condition, and the engine is amazingly sweet. (Revs out to 8000rpm without missing a beat.) It's been well looked after and the guy who's had it for the last two years has changed the oil every six months himself (using top quality fully synth oil), he's put new plugs in (the platinum tipped ones), and generally kept a close eye on it.
• The gal done good ! 30 Sep 2003 (Forum)
  It was a long time ago that I learned to drive but I don\'t think I picked up this aspect as quickly as her so all in all I thinks she\'s done very, very well so far. It\'s funny isn\'t it, how some people have a knack for certain things and I have to say she\'s very comfortable judging distances, gaps etc. so I\'m quite confident she\'ll do well and be a good safe driver.
• Omega oil leak? 26 May 2003 (Forum)
  btw, there was no noticeable loss of oil (yes, I know some must have gone!), and no emusified stuff either. it\'s done 60k miles, and I\'d guess the oil deposit isn\'t very new...

• Do we really need or want this level of complicati 6 Dec 2001 (Forum)
  It is BMW?s intention to roll this technology down the range. How will all you technical guys service and deal with fault finding on this stuff when the ECU is slightly different for each individual gearbox? Seems very clever but somewhat barmy to me.
• The worlds most successful F1 Driver - Lewis Hamilton 1 Jan 2021 (Forum)
  Seeing Lewis s performance in the Turkish GP last Sunday confirmed his position as the best driver in the wet. But Ronnie o Sullivan’s comments about Lewis s advantage by consistently having the best car got me thinking.
