• Nissan X-Trail (2001 - 2007) - 05 2.2 Replacing a Nissan branded radio/cd player 11 Jun 2010 (Forum)
  I suspect that the main heating trunk behind the dash runs to the rear of the radio and warms it up but without looking...! Does anybody know first of all how the front silver dash surround unclips as the radio mounts are hidden behind?
• Toyota Avensis D-4D 7 Jan 2004 (Forum)
  Drove straight to the Audi dealer and started a process that ended up with an ex-demo A4 Avant Sport on the drive. The whole car FEELS so much more solid than the Toyota - and I'll even just about forgive its lack of heated mirrors. Dynamically it's fine too. So do any of you backroomers drive a new Avensis, and how do you like it?
• MoT renewal sticker 28 Apr 2009 (Forum)
  Ive never peeled one off the mot sheet since it went modern and ive very rarely seen one stuck in a windscreen. Im talking the new type not the old ones you wrote on with a ballpoint pen for it to fade in a month. Do you remove the sticker from your mot certificate? 3 year old and less car owners need not apply
• Tree sap 14 Jun 2006 (Forum)
  Having parked under a tree in the sun my car has been drizzled liberally with tree sap. It looks like water droplets but won't shift, and is annoying when it's on the windscreen. Am stuck (sorry) for ideas on how to get rid of it. The ferocious screenwash additive won't move it, and Holt's Screenies make no difference either.
• Convertible back windows 27 Mar 2006 (Forum)
  My girlfriend has a Mini Cooper Convertible, and apart from it being the most impractical car ever, she loves it to bits. A problem she is having witht it is the back window getting filthy as soon as it rains, to the point where you actually struggle to see out, especially at night. Obviously there is no back windscreen wiper, so anyone any suggestions on how to keep it clean?
• Rover 820 Relay 1990 (Help) 28 Aug 2005 (Forum)

• Bought a new car 1 Dec 2019 (Forum)
  After having poor headlights on the last car I was definitely wanting LED Headlights. Heated and electrically adjustable door mirrors. Quite a few cars in this class/ size have electrically adjustable mirrors without heating. Cruise control.

  What's wrong with my Rover 75? 19 Jul 2013 (Ask HJ)
  The engine on my 2003 Rover 75 suffers misfires when I accelerate. The engine management light also flashes and the revs drop. What’s wrong with my car?...
• Vauxhall Meriva 1.7 CDTi - running temp 30 Dec 2006 (Forum)
  Hi All, I have a Vauxhall CDTi engined car. 1. It takes around 10-15 miles to warm up. It's my 3rd diesel and this is soooo long. I was away over Xmas and rented a VW 1.9 TDi. This heated up like I expect a diesel should. 2. If I switch off for 30 mins, there appears to be very little heat retained and the temp gauge goes to the bottom. 3.
• Mondeo TDCi engine temperature 25 Feb 2003 (Forum)
  The new version is 23e. The problem is that the engine temperature pointer grows very slow. When I turn the internal heating on, the pointer falls down. When I stop the car (engine is turned on) the pointer falls down even to the lowest level. Everything was OK before software replacing. My mechanics are helpless. They have repeated computer programing, replaced the thermostat, but the problem is unsolved.
• 306 Blower/Heated Rear Window Non-func 17 Mar 2004 (Forum)
  I have a 1995 306 Diesel Turbo. Yesterday the blower and heated rear window stopped working. When I eventually found the supply feed to both these relays (BB2) it reads only 3.5v. Obviously not enough to energise the relays. I checked the other side of the ignition switch and this is at the same voltage so I guess it's not that.

  I don't have much windscreen space, can you suggest a small dash cam? 17 Jul 2019 (Ask HJ)
  You've got some great information on dashcams, however, I'm after a specific sort. I have a Fiat 124 Spider and so there's not much room in there and I...
• Review: Nextbase 612GW Elite dashcam 26 Mar 2018 (Forum)
  As with all cameras what happens when it rains? You cannot place it in the windscreen wiped areas as this obstructs the view. Dickie
• Becham's Bentley -the windows legal? 3 Jul 2006 (Forum)
  Surely these balcked out windows are illegal - on the back OK but the sides and windscreen must fail as they are almost 100% balcked out
• renault scenic rear washer 3 Jan 2002 (Forum)
  every time i use the rear washer no water, however it activates the windscreen washer, any ideas. Many thanks.
• Ford Focus immobiliser 8 Aug 2005 (Forum)
  Twice after long journeys in hot weather the car has failed to start (electrics working but no turn over),last time I left it and the next day it started no problem. Is it something to do with the heat or is this coincidental?
