• family car - £1600 to Spend on a Nippy family car? 12 Jul 2012 (Forum)
  Currently got a C5 hdi which is pretty good in transporting the children around, however would like some more power. I've come from a youngster driving performance motors to a 31 year old father of 2 driving gutless transport. But the TD's have transformed over the years and wondered what your suggestions were. A VW would seem the ideal solution but outpriced by demand, ideally a 130 or 150 TDI would be good, any ideas?

  When driving my 2007 Touran and you reach 75mph the throttle goes non responsive and the car slows to 50mph, which i understand as limp mode. Once you have stopped the car and turned the ignition off and on again you can then drive the car normally again untill you hit around 75mph ???

• Citroen Xsara Diesel 'Y' Reg - Citroen Xsara Diesel loosing coolant water 26 Aug 2011 (Forum)
  Hi, I have noticed that the car is loosing coolent water, because I have to fill it up every day or 2.   The car never overheats on long drives, but the coolant warning light come on when I drive in heavy traffic. The cars performance is OK and I cant see any water in the oil, or see water on the floor.  Not sure what to look for.

• Citroen Xsara Estate - New Clutch Judder 13 May 2011 (Forum)
  Hi all, I noticed recently that the clutch pedal had a vibration to it when used, after taking itto a garage I was advised that the clutch needed replacing.  after having it replaced today (was told the flywheel didnt need replacing), driving home I've noticed that there's a very noticable judder driving off, dropping into first and engaging reverse.  Is this normal for a new clutch and if not any ideas what could cause it.  It would be good to know before i go back to the garage tomorrow to avoid any flannel.....

• m6 spec speed camera's 21 Mar 2010 (Forum)
  hi went up and down the m6 the other weekend manchester to swindon, passing through quite a number of spec controlled roadworks. i kept to the signed limit but was surprised how many drivers were driving at well over the signed limit. do they know something others don't or do they not know what spec camera's are or do they not have the self control to drive at the stated limit. some must have been at well over 70 mph.
