The channel I was listening cut out immediately after this was mentioned. Is this basically fuel-cell only cars, or do other cars with high mileage qualify?

I have had my 2.2 Zafira for a week and have started having the odd problem with eratic idling and being a pain to start (it starts then dies). It always seems to happen when it is warm and has been stopped for a few minutes. I presume from what I have seen that this is a classic ...

I see that Scewfix, among others, is seling 20 litre jerry cans. I thought it was illegal to use these for petrol storage, e.g in one's garage. IIRC the limit was two 5-litre cans. Am I wrong on this? What is the current position?

I've just replaced my CV joint on a mk1 mondeo and noticed the wheel bearing rough. What I would like to know is what tools I require and how to replace it. The local garage wants £80 so I'd rather buy the tools and do it myself so that I can do the other side too.

My dad thinks the turbo on his A2 1.4 diesel is gone. It's only got 40k on it so seems a little unlikely unless someone's been doing bad things to it? Anyway, he takes it to some guy (this is all very 2nd hand) who does some sort of diagnostic and pronounces 'it's either the
