  Cars with water-cooled internal combustion engines generate so much heat that it has to be dumped to the atmosphere via a radiator. Using this "spare"...
• BMW 1 Series - Windscreen repaired chip from dealer 28 Jan 2017 (Forum)
  The vehicles age is almost 1 year, May 2016 is the registration date. After 3 days since I bought the car a small chip and crack appeared on my windscreen. I did 2 investigations, one at BMW and one with Autoglass and it seems that the windscreen had the chip and it was previously repaired. Now it has 2 cracks around the chip, which appeared after I bought the car, like I said, after 3 days.

• Audi A3 + S3 (2003 - 2008) - A3 3.2 Quattro 11 Apr 2008 (Forum)
  No auto dimming rear view mirror - again my 1998 Scorpio had that, so did my VW Bora. 4. No heated windscreen (Scorpio and Galaxy again) 5. No Heated seats - Ford Galaxy and Scorpio both both those in 1998/1999 6. No electric memory seats (Ford Scorpio, Peugeot 406). Now, heres the thing, I haven;t looked in detail at any Audi, BMW, or Merc before, but the dealer says that these premium German brands are usually badly equipped, however this is not the lead in 1.6 I am looking at, but the flagship 3.2 Quattro.

• Honda Civic 2010 - I ran a red tempoary traffic light 3 Aug 2022 (Forum)
  It was a tempoary traffic light, it was placed in a stupid position that caused traffic to backup through a junction of actual permenant traffic lights. Once I cleared that junction myself and the other cars in front approached a set of tempoary traffic lights. They changed to green  - for like two seconds - before going to red. Four cars in front of me drove through the red light, so I followed them.
• Windscreen creaks and cracks. Audi A4. 18 Apr 2004 (Forum)
  I run a 1997 Audi A4 1.9 TDI.It starts first turn,runs brilliantly with plenty of poke and economy.However on starting from cold and driving a few miles as soon as the heater starts blowing warm air onto the windscreen a problem ensues.When going round a bend the windscreen gives sharp cracking noises.These noises sound almost like a stone hitting your screen at speed.Once the car is warm though all is quiet again.Has anyone any idea about the cause or a possible cure?

• Suzuki - New swift 2 Oct 2024 (Forum)
  There's no height adjustment on the passenger seat, wife's not bothered and loves the heated seat but it's seems a strange omission. The front end looks a little unfinished to my eyes and unless there built into the headlights and I've not found the button there doesn't seem to be front fog lights fitted?

• 9 mm crack in windscreen ~ any big deal? 2 Jun 2011 (Forum)
  The passenger's side of my car's windscreen recently acquired a curved 9 mm long crack from a flying stone. At the moment I can't work up the enthusiasm to do anything about it. What minimum length would a crack need to be to spur you into action?

• Peugeot 3008 2010 model - Windscreen trim clips 13 Aug 2021 (Forum)
  I recently had my scuttle drains cleaned and the windscreen trims would have been removed. I have also had my windscreen changed multiple times during the cars life and as a result the clips were likely to have had their day. One of the windscreen trims went missing on a long drive.
• Any - Cracked windscreen adverts on radio and tv. 15 Feb 2014 (Forum)
  I don't live in the UK any more but I still listen to various UK internet radio stations. Even before I escaped from the UK the windscreen crack repair scare advert  annoyed me -particularly the irritating twerp driving a windscreen repair van purporting to work for a certain company who guarentee that if you have a chip in the screen, when you turn the heater on to the windscreen it will crack.
• New windscreen problem? 13 May 2008 (Forum)
  She phoned the windscreen people who told her it may take time to settle in and to give it a week. Normally I wouldnt mind this but in 2 weeks were are travelling down to Italy in this car, so want it right. Does what they say sound plausible, has anyone else had this sort of thing happen?
