Steering problem with Suzuki SX4 6 Nov 2016 (Ask HJ)
My Suzuki SX4's steering has a habit of wandering when motorway driving. Would fitting all weather tyres help to reduce this? -
5 series touring or A6 avant 25 Aug 2016 (Forum)
Hi all would like ppl a views on these cars I can't decide. Looking a decent spec (msport or s line) around 13 plate. I'm aware the 5 series was face lifted around this time. My thoughts are the bmw is a bit dated inside and the A6 wins hand down on the interior. Outside I don't think there is much in it. -
Premium Car, Which One? 10 Jul 2016 (Forum)
Have around £10,000 to spend on a premium comfortable used vehicle. Have been considering an S Class but concerned that maintenance and any repair bills will be astronomical. Fuel consumption is not a concern. Does anyone have any guidance as to what would be a good used buy? The main criteria is comfort, smooth ride and a reliable auto box and ideally a car that will not cost its purchase price in repair bills. -
Land Rover Defender - Leaky Defender! 10 Nov 2015 (Forum)
Now, I've been looking at sealants here (http://www.johncraddockltd.co.uk/search/results.html?s=sealants&sb=Search) but don't really have a clue which one to get, or if this is even the solution. It's over 15 years old now and getting harder and harder to maintain sadly. -
2009 Honda CR-V - Tyre noise 1 Oct 2015 (Forum)
The car is shod with three Haida 225/65R17 102H and one on the rear nearside which is a Continental 225/65R17 102T M+S. This is a bad mix anyway I suspect but can any one suggest a quieter tyre please or do I turn up the radio ? Cheers Kevin -
Speeding - HOW TO MAKE MONEY 26 Apr 2015 (Forum)
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3051316/Convictions-speeding-nearly-half-five-years-55-000-drivers-caught-nation-s-police-forces-2014.html At a £20- surcharge forces made £26 million and some charged £30.. nice little earner. But the bit that is interesting is that if you exceed the "tolerances" you get a speeding ticket. -
Skoda Roomster 1.6tdi - Roomster replacement 21 Feb 2015 (Forum)
After three Roomster Tdi's we have arrived at a hiatus, the 1.6TDi excellent except a lack of grunt. We love the space and comfort of the TDi but the latest iterration lacks the 1.9's power despite Skoda's claims of 105hp. Can we break the chain and buy something with the same space within a small car but with more urge? Would the Honda CRV Diesel be more satisfying or maybe a VAG htach with 140hp be a better idea? -

Audi A1- Non owners views wanted 19 Jun 2012 (Forum)
Not wishing to upset the apple cart over at the other thread so I started this one. One of these A1's passed me on the A12 this morning- white with Essex dirt on it.. Man are they ugly. All they say to me is look I'm a pretentious badge snob with no cash. Traveller chic if you like. -

Headlights 8 Feb 2012 (Forum)
My S-Type has 5 billion watt Xenon's fitted to it, the 406 was upgraded to similar bulbs years ago so its been a while since i've been in a car at night with normal lights. The other night i was a passenger in my girlfriends S40 with normal lights and i couldnt believe how rubbish normal headlights are on your typical unlit dual carraigeway.
