• Citroen Xsara Picasso - citroen xsara picasso juddering in gears 29 Feb 2012 (Forum)
  hi, i've just bought a citroen xsara picasso, 06 plate, 1.6 petrol. it's done 34,000 miles and is an ex mobility car. the problem i have is as i'm coming down the gears the car seems to judder or kagaroo. it is as if the car wants to stall and the only way to stop it is dip the clutch. for instance if you drive in 3rd gear then let your foot off the throttle it only takes a second before the car starts to judder??? never had a citroen before so i'm wondering if they are high geared and i have to adjust my driving style (a driving style thats been fine for the last 13 cars i've owned) or is it a clutch or drive shaft problem?

• Will I be allowed to retake my driving test? 27 Sep 2011 (Forum)
  I'm not very confident driving (even though I have a full licence) and would like to retake my driving test to see if I could pass and hopefully get better. Would I be allowed to do this, as it's surely a sensible thing to do if I'm feeling low on confidence, and I definitely want to do more than just having some refresher lessons and a mock test.

• Driving test. 11 Feb 2010 (Forum)
  Well, yesterday I had driving test again. Last test was 37 years ago. I went for a hackney carriage / licensed hire test at the local DSA test centre. Basically its the standard driving test with added taxi type manouvres (lots of turning round in the road, and pulling up at the side of the road, with taxi type questions at the end) I did no swotting up, and just booked and went blind.

• Volkswagen Golf III (1992 - 1997) - Wheel bearing possibly worn. Safe to drive? 26 Oct 2009 (Forum)
  I have a 98 VW Golf estate and I think the wheel baring has gone because I get a humming noise from the back wheels when i'm driving and last time this happened it was the wheel baring. Unfortunatly I can't afford to have it replaced for another 3 weeks and in that time i'll need to drive 1500 miles (roughly 100 miles a day) to and from work.
