  • All models - Are Volkswagens as good as they used to be. 10 Mar 2017 (Forum)
    I have tried to find other makes but apart from 4 years with an early MX5 have always ended up with another VW. The attraction has been the build quality compared to others, I liked the Ford S Max but the chunks of foam sticking out at the seat hinges when the seat was folded put me off. Honda FR-V fitted the bill at the time but the ugly spot welds in the door shuts and tailgate, and paint so thin the primer showed through on all the surfaces not visible from outside with the doors closed.
  • brakes that don't brake, but break 29 Apr 2003 (Forum)
    I have 14" wheels on the car, and need to somehow establish whether either of the above proposals are feasible. I am loathed to go ask at a ford parts counter, as I don't trust their skill that much (sorry to anyone who works at food, but I'm just stating the situation with my local dealer), and don't want to rely upon advice from the "max power" style of website that are commonplace for the fiesta.

  • Ford Galaxy (1995 - 2006) - 02 1.9 booster heating exhaust 14 Mar 2009 (Forum)
    Thought it might be because of cold weather but now milder weather seems to have little effect. also when the internal blower is set at 1 or 2 the air con sign comes on. when blower moved to 3 it disappears. Noticed max white smoke tonight at traffic lights after about 10 miles - looked down and saw ac light on - is this linked ?. Otherwise car great. Not sure if this is a big problem or a small one. not mechanically minded and concerned over safety.
