  • Cheap Brake Pads 15 Mar 2003 (Forum)
    I noticed the item in today\'s paper \"Warp Factor True\" (406 with warping brake discs). It reminds me of my same experience when my Rover 218 turbo diesel was a company car and the lease company garage kept replacing discs. It finally appeared that the cause was cheap brake pads that caused immense heat build up.

  • Xantia electrics 20 Oct 2002 (Forum)
    As s**s law would dictate in this cold weather, the heater fan for the passenger compartment has given up the ghost along with the rear screen demister. I've tested the fan which works fine, so it can't be that, so therefore resorted to stripping the dashboard out to see if there was a loose connection as the fan sometimes worked, sometimes didn't.
  • I feel good....... 23 Mar 2002 (Forum)
    Now I feel prepared for the Saturday routine, I've now got the boys out of bed and will shortly be taking them to football practice, a spot of DIY followed by feet up to watch the Scots defeat the French in the rugby. (OK the last thing might be a bit hopeful!) I do like having a bike. Rob S

  • excess on the road 16 Nov 2006 (Forum)
    What we need to do is to ignore the rubbish about 4*4's destroying the environment and passing laws specifically to get 4*4's off the road. The reason being this is that 4*4's have become the icon of excess, hence the new 4*4 taxes being muted. Instead we need to tax truly excessive cars, from 4*4 like the range rover to saloons like the Mercedes S-class.
  • \'Ere we go. Again. 18 Apr 2004 (Forum)
    How come I did that? That\'s a 2, shortly to be a 3 Harley household. All it needs now is Growlette to say she\'s infanticipating and penury looms. Not only that but there\'s another 14 months before I enjoy the UK Social Security\'s benificence after a lifetime of contributions which would have made several zillion times the same amount had it gone into a Standard & Poors tracker rather than serially incompetent seat warmers\' custody in successive UK governments.
