  • Anyone used Mytyres? 8 Dec 2011 (Forum)
      Very very few manufacturers make this size/rating.  Uniroyal don't.  Anyway I currently have some Conti Premium Contact 2's on there (OEM) - OK but not great in the wet.  I've been reading good reviews about the Falken ZE912's and it's them I'm set on. Mytyres coming in at about £72 a corner..fitted.  Next nearest I can get from the usual suspects is £100 plus or minus.

  • Renault - Lack of Torque 27 Sep 2011 (Forum)
    If I wanted to save trees etc I'd walk everywhere. I don't so I drive. If I wanted a car that had no torque and s***ty fuel economy then I'd buy a s***ty little 1 litre petrol car with 50bhp and less than 100lb/ft of torque not a 110bhp diesel that can develop 200+ lb/ft torque. STOP trying to make regular cars Eco friendly and let those of us who want to drive drive and let the tree huggers walk everywhere and eat veggies.

  • Is Rover or battery maker Delphi responsible for battery failure after nine years? 23 Aug 2011 (Ask HJ)

  • Smart Roadster Coupe - Rear coil springs 7 May 2011 (Forum)
                               2)Can anyone direct me to online  details on procedure for fitting rear road springs to Smart Roadster Coupe `04/`05 plate please?Usually don`t bother with manuals but reckon it might save time on this one.She`s sitting down on the drivers side rear,can`t see anything underneath so suspect top of coil is broken.It`s done 40,000miles,hasn`t been thrashed,I`m only allowed in the passenger seat ;) but you feel every pothole&manhole cover........so does the suspension I would guess.First became suspicious when the driver appeared to do an odd correction mid-corner at times,usually her driving isn`t too alarming.Now I understand car was oversteering on right-handers and understeering on lefthanders.
