About 18 months ago I had the passenger side CV joint replaced when it
started knocking as cornered.
I started to get the same noise again recently and quite reasonably
assumed that it was the other side failing. But a quick trip to the

My C5 2.2Hdi achieves a miserable 36 to 39 miles per gallon, is this
normal?. The car was first registered in January 2004, and has 30K
miles on the clock. Whilst I tend to drive a bit quickly, I'm no boy
racer, and do very little urban mileage (mostly A-roads). I've

Can't really think of anything to say about it really; just trying to
restore the balance against the spam, a little.
It's parked on the street, as usual.  (The car, that is).  I don't use it
often, but I expect it will start first time as usual when I do use it

How do I flush out the cooling system. ? I think there is an air block.!

How big a job is it to replace one? I've got a knocking noise whenever I go
over a pot hole and I've just changed the drop link but to no avail. As I
raise and lower the wishbone by hand I can hear a clunk which seems to come

For the mechanics out there - how long would you expect a set of disks to
last on a 2000 Saxo VTR?
I'm trying to identify if a car has been clocked, its currently showing 40k

I just got a 1991 XM 2.0i. It is in great condition (only 80k miles

problems.
The rev counter doesn't work and it looks like the dashboard lights

I have just bought a second-hand 2003 Berlingo and the owner's card with
the confidential key code is missing. There is no problem at present,

that I might want to have a look at these groups and share some
knowledge.

I'm thinking of adding an intercooler to a xsara 90 HDI. Can anyone give me

Many thanks
