  hi, my daughter complained that her car was over-heating when i had a look at it i discovered the header tank was tainted with oil and the inside of the cap had the familiar white gunge normally found on the inside of the oil filler cap when water has enter the oil. on this occasion there isn't any sign of water on the inside of the oil filler cap on on the dipstick. would you say this is a head gasket blown and, if so, is it a fairly straightforward job?

• Electrical Problems - Mazda 6 18 Jan 2004 (Forum)
  I own a Mazda 6 which I\'m very impressed with. However I was driving the car when the CD player stopped working, heated rear window went off and then the left indicator came on all by itself. This happened several times in a journey lasting no more than 20 minutes. I asked my son to switch off his mobile phone and the problem cleared.
• Alhamra smoke 20 Dec 2003 (Forum)
  My 2001 Alhambra Td SE gives off huge clouds of paraffin-smelling smoke from under its nearside. I am told that this is a special heating device and "they all do it". But surely not after several minutes of running, and not so much it fills the car if a door is opened? I don't see other Alhambras billowing smoke like mine does! Any ideas on what I say to the SEAT agent?

• Insurance company trying to backcharge me £360 5 Oct 2013 (Forum)
  This person is considerably friendlier and explains that they have made a mistake, It isn't £360, it's £307. They had innitially quoted for a crash (The man going into the back of me), and the windscreen, but have now realised that they shouldn't have charged me for the windscreen. She proceeded to explain that I am being charged the £307 for not including the "crash" (Which I had informed them about), in my renuals since (Despite the fact that I had informed them at the time and that they told me it would be removed after 6 months!).
