  • B Max - Gearbox 26 Aug 2019 (Forum)
     I asked a question on here about having this work done and there was a suggestion that  Ford  wouldn’t honour the warranty on a car which had been serviced  outside the Ford dealer network. Not necessarily the case, fortunately. Ford will authorise  gearbox warranty  work on cars which have not been serviced by themselves outside the three years,  but  this seems to be on a case by case basis.

  • Subaru Forester XT 2008 - emissions seem good 19 Apr 2019 (Forum)
    Took the good lady's Forester XT in for MOT today, clean pass, apparently they still use a decelerometer on full time 4x4's (i did wonder if they had some sort of free wheel device for the other axle by now), bet he enjoyed a blast in the little pocket rocket. Interesting the emission test results. LPG ppm vol, max limit 1200, actual value 90 CO %vol max limit 3.500, actual value 0.000 Be very glad to pay up the £550 VED required for all that pollution :-))
