• Citroen C1 - Cat C - any way to ascertain the damage? 10 Nov 2014 (Forum)

• Luton or Dagenham? Ford or Vauxhall?? 1 Mar 2014 (Forum)
  Cool in your Cavalier or ecstatic in your Escort, we could go on and on unlike most of the cars of the 60's & 70's. It would seem the loyalty shown to both brands was indeed very strong and where car making no longer occurs at Dagenham loyalty to the blue oval carries on and if course as a centre of excellence in diesel engine technology Dagenham lives on in the current diesel range of cars.

• VW Golf MK5 DSG Estate - VW Golf MK5 DSG High Rev's on Some Gear Changes 6 Aug 2013 (Forum)
    I also have paddle shift, if I force a change in 3rd at 2000 rpm into 4th it changes no problem and holds there until it goes back into auto mode and then it reverts back to 3rd gear again and will hold until 2300ish rpm.  In sport 'S' mode the change happens from 3rd to 4th at about 2500 rpm so much higher so no issue about either me or the car being in 'S' by mistake. This is really annoying as it only happens occasionally.
