| abs sensor | 01 Sep 2005 00:57 GMT | 1 |
Citroen Xantia, front offside abs sensor. It causes intermittent fault light on panel (which is an MoT fail apparently). Thought I would take it out and clean the connections-thereby saving £80 if successful.

Not for the first time I find myself with a car question I would prefer to ask here before approaching my Ford dealer. Having bought a F.D. Mondeo, 9 months old, with 10,000 miles on the clock, I checked the levels two weeks later after about 260 miles. The

Ok, car will be 1 year old on 1st September but the leather on the drivers seat is a bit shinier and 'looser' than the passenger seat (just a bit). I'm thinking about trying the Autoglym leather care cream just to try and preserve it a bit. Any thoughts? The seats are black ...

| Radio dead after battery failure | 30 Aug 2005 20:18 GMT | 2 |
The battery on my Nissan Exterra died a natural death. However, after the new one was put in, the radio (and related items like the clock and CD player) does not come on. It does not appear that any fuses have blown.

| S70 Tools | 29 Aug 2005 23:34 GMT | 22 |
Been studying a few repair procedures for the S70. One thing I've noticed is that there are a number of Torx fixings, so I'll be getting a decent set of bits. I also noticed that the hub carriers have bolts that require a torx socket (i.e. Exx). Does anyone know if there are ...
