  • Ford Mondeo Automatic 2 litre hatch 2002 - Engine Warning Light on dashboard remaining on 15 Oct 2014 (Forum)
    I read somewhere that the warnings relating to the engine indicator light could relate to any number of faults, e.g. low brake pads / discs. Does anyone know if this is true ? I believe that the brakes may currently be  low and this would not be too difficult to manage I have no wish to ignore the warning but am also a bit short of cash at prensent and would prefer that I am not told of some really expensive fault which possibly is not required.

  • 04(53) civic ctdi - high pressure fuel pump bust scrap or repair 27 Jan 2014 (Forum)
     We do have an alternate car which ironically we were about to scrap. A 99 skoda octavia 146000 miles . It needs full set of brakes to pass its mot. We thought this is the better bet at mo. I just thought it would be nice to hear some other opinions.    I still cant believe the hpfp has gone. The civic looks lovely, but is dead as dodo right now.

  • Query about my service 9 Feb 2013 (Forum)
    Basically, my main question is can they just replace things such as wipers and lights and charge without asking? And also, is an hour to replace the headlights and brake fluid reasonable? I have looked online and the fluid is changed by machine!   Thanks

Is it possible the new type relay 109 is failing?
