• Renault Clio - Rear windscreen heater damaged during car service 4 Nov 2014 (Forum)
  I complained to the manager that my car had not been given a thorough valet as was stated when I booked my car. He promised to have it cleaned and returned my car back the following day. That was in April. Six months on, I turned my rear windscreen demister when I noticed only one strip working.
• Windscreen replacement on a modern car 15 Jan 2019 (Forum)
  But some windscreen companies, including Autoglass, say this is not neccessary, simply aim the camera at a static target. Where it gets a bit murky though, is that for this method to work properly, apparently the tyre pressures and wheel alignment need to be spot on, and the car needs to be on a smooth flat and level surface.
• Storing waste heat from a car to use in the house? 27 May 2008 (Forum)
  My journey to Liverpool from Oxfordshire set me thinking. How much waste heat did my journey expel to the atmosphere, and could it be trapped and used? My cunning plan involves using the waste engine heat to warm a medium in a tank - perhaps a saline solution, which on return home is then plugged into the hot water circuit of the domestic plumbing and has the heat extracted from it.

• Galaxy - heated fron screen 23 Dec 2001 (Forum)
  At the service I requested that they investigate that the passenger side of the screen doesn't defrost - the only apparent fault. The only report back was 'suspect front screen'. As the service and cambelt change was time consuming I am not convinced that this was properly investigated. I'm a handy chap but can't get hold of a copy of a Haynes manual or similar to help me, I know that the LHS and RHS have 'contacts' in either corner under the dashboard area but can anyone advise either, 1) a source of a workshop manual ( as I don't want to take it to Ford every time I have a small problem ) or 2) can anyone advise wire codes / numbers or where to check on the vehicle.
• any - windscreen washer fluid low level waring 15 Dec 2013 (Forum)
  A few thoughts about windscreen washers: Not many people realise that it is illegal to be driving a car without washer fluid in the reservoir. However, apart from staying legal, you really don't want yourself suddenly needing to be able to clear your screen and finding that your windscreen washer is empty.

• Ford Focus 1.8 TCDI - Head Gasket - return the car to dealer? 13 Jan 2013 (Forum)
  Is the cold air heating issue linked to the overheating of the car? If it isnt linked i can make them take the car back as they reduced the price of the vehicle based on the interior heating issue and not this further problem which has been discovered within 3 hours of having the car.

• Autonomous cars 5 Mar 2017 (Forum)
    That is the placement of controls such they can being seen/operated without distracting the driver in any way.  Such considerations seem to have been cast aside and car controls are now too complicated for safe operation. And don't get me started on heated windscreens only being avaiable as extra-cost options. Come on folks... Who agrees/disagrees?
