  • Renault Clio - Brake creep groan 26 Feb 2024 (Forum)
    I have been hearing some groaning noise from my new automatic Clio hybrid at low speed when braking and moving off in start-stop traffic and on slopes. I have a habit of feathering off the brake to get a smooth stop. I came across a technical article on brake creep groan which explained the stick-slip phenomenon between the brake pad and the disc at low speeds especially prone to automatic cars which results in low frequency vibrations.
  • BMW125D - A couple of discussion topics 12 Nov 2020 (Forum)
    You push the lever forward to go forward and backwards to go backwards which seems common sense. I have driven a couple of automatic cars many years ago and recently bought the vehicle above. I push the selector forward to go backwards and backwards to go forwards which is crazy to me. I guess it is a carry over from automatics that had mechanical linkages but are they not different now?

  • Windows Live Mail (WLM) 9 Nov 2014 (Forum)
    On selecting WLM on the desktop, the WLM screen appears and so does a log-in screen stating "Sign in to Windows Live Mail", also automatically included is my e-mail address and a password box. Without entering a password, I can close the log-in box and go straight into WLM and begin e-mailing. This must be wrong. Can anyone guide me as to how I can remove my automatically entered e-mail address and ensure that I must enter my password to provide the necessary security.
