• Recommend Me a Car 4 Sep 2006 (Forum)
  Capable of reasonable fuel economy-35 easily achievable-the better the better though Decent gearbox Refined engine that will rev smoothly and cleanly, and not be strained at Mway speeds (ties in with performance this point I suppose) Smooth, light clutch that will stay smooth and light! Heated door mirrors. Excellent brakes, discs all round also, ABS too (I love the brakes in the mk 2 Megane, I like brakes that you only have to sneeze on to put you through the windscreen)Reasonable handling-I used to own a 205 1.6 gti-I would love a real drivers car, but out right handling is not absolutely required.

• 1997 Hoanda Accord 4-Cyl - ERG Valve Bench Testing? 17 Aug 2020 (Forum)
  Eventually the whole length shown below disappered into the port in the direction of the exhaust and the brake fluid drained away so I'd guess it cleared the blockage. https://www.driveaccord.net/cdn-cgi/image/format=auto,onerror=redirect,width=1920,height=1920,fit=scale-down/https://www.driveaccord.net/attachments/img_3506-jpg.522999/ Now have the valve off and would like to "bench test" it.

• Nissan Qashqai - Qashqai, loss of power, alarm going off etc 29 Mar 2020 (Forum)
  Have said they need it in for a prolonged time to replicate fault, what so they can feel that it feels like the intelligent braking is cutting in when not meant to. I can’t see what use that is if still not registering any fault codes and did not offer me a loan car for that time (under warranty) until I asked for one - they told me in 2 weeks.
