• Honda CR-V - Best oil brand for my Honda crv 17 Jul 2020 (Forum)
  Now in the past I havent had the best track record of servicing our cars. Then wondering why they break down or run rough. I really want to service this Honda well and give it the beat oil you can get. (After watching YouTube videos of castrol and cars running million miles with them it seems case closed) I emailed Honda UK and the recommended castrol edge 0w30.
• Testing a Kuga PHEV 27 Jun 2020 (Forum)
    This is a real benefit, with performance on a par with my 2.0 petrol Q2. I think I'd gain a bit on the long runs up the A303, but a great deal on the many short 8-10-mile round trips wch could all be done on electric power.  I'd have to install a wall charger at home, but this would soon pay for itself. Ride and handling seemed fine, as you'd expect from a Ford.

• Peugeot 2008 - Car for part exchange with (no) problem? 7 Jun 2018 (Forum)
  At another hand are they would be able to reverse the deal if they find that out later on but still did not ask about it at the time of part exchanging it?    There is no sings of oil burn while the engine runs at all passed 3 MOT and 3 services in the past without any co2 emissions trouble . Apparently is due a nature of cambelt setup placed in the oil (yep), and because of that engine runs ecologic oil to not contaminate this cambelt and is very thin like a water so it goes through valves from time to time but also is burned.
