I've ot a bit of a problem, the clutch on my father's 1994 Tipo 1.4ie
seems to have disconnected itself somewhere.

Ihave an 02 registered 51 plate 2.0 L HE petrol Mondeo with 53,000
miles on it. I am pretty sure that I have a DMF failure - in fact the

My 106 has only just had its MOT but I have just noticed that there is a
knocking noise (sounds like it is at wheel rotation speed) when I go around
a left hand turn.
What is this likely to be and does it need urgent attention?

I'm a little stuck trying to get the reverse lights to work in my 97 A4
Avant. I've changed both bulbs and checked all the fuses in the fusebox
and they still don't work. I wondered if anyone has any ideas where I
