KIA Sorento - Kia Sorento 2015 automatic transmission problem 5 Dec 2019 (Forum)
I went to a Kia dealer to test drive a used automatic Kia Sorento KX-3, 2015. When I tried to shift the gear lever from Parking to Drive I couldn’t, it just wouldn't move. The sales person tried as well and couldn’t. Then a mechanic came and opened a little flap that covered a tiny hole next to the gear lever. -
peugeot 1.1 xl independence 1997 - Automatic clutch cable and very high biting point 11 Mar 2013 (Forum)
(The clutch feels normal, and there is no clunking or grating etc) I have added an inch of washers to the clutch cable, in the hope something would change...it didn't and removed one of the original washer...again , no change in clutch biting position. (I didn't realise it was an automatic adjust cable at that point :) ) http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m147/liammcl_2006/Clutch%20106%201100cc%2029%20Jan%202013/extended_zps2d4e8b25.jpg http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m147/liammcl_2006/Clutch%20106%201100cc%2029%20Jan%202013/shortened_zps69986c7e.jpg Does anyone know how an auto adjust cable works?... -

Hi, I hope someone can help. I have a problem with my 2002 Focus 1.6 automatic. The vehicle has run fine for years been regularly maintained/serviced etc. I find i can start the car fine, but after several minutes of driving, the car completely cuts out. I get no warning lights, it just switches off as if you have turned the key to switch it off, the power steering disappears, and the brakes go heavy. -

Volkswagen Sharan (1995 - 2009) - What to replace it with? 10 Sep 2008 (Forum)
Our 10 year old Sharan needs a new transmission, so we need to buy a newer MPV. I do a lot of motorway journeys, otherwise I'm driving in London. For that reason the automatic Sharan has been great. I'd like another automatic, and for 8 years the Sharan was relatively trouble free. I'm looking for a car that's about 3 years old. Does anyone have thoughts on what the newer Sharan's are like, or suggestions on other MPV's to consider would be very welcome.
