| Peugeot 406 ABS Problem | 26 Sep 2006 19:31 GMT | 4 |
I have a 2000 model Peugeot 406 HDi that I purchased earlier in the summer. There is an intermittent fault with the braking system that causes the ABS to operate when braking gently at slow speeds, typically less than 20 mph, which results in pulsing felt through the brake pedal.

| Espace interesting instruments | 26 Sep 2006 17:53 GMT | 12 |
Having borrowed a mate's old Espace to help with house moving, I noticed a few interesting aspects of the instrument panel... - all the warning lights come on at first then go out as they should. - speedo wobbles but works. Milometer works. Rev counter works.

| Req: Please ignore "Fred". | 26 Sep 2006 16:33 GMT | 16 |
It seems that "Fred" didn't post much prior to the Richard Hammond crash. He posts via Altopia (news.alt.net) which is the trolls' #1 server of choice.

This is the second weekend on the trot i've had a go at replacing the track rod ends on my escort and still they won't budge. I've pretty much given up now and am considering taking it to a garage to get it done but just want a rought idea of what it's likely to cost.

| Getting a Seicento with engine problem | 25 Sep 2006 22:29 GMT | 7 |
I'm being given a Fiat Seicento this week but it has an engine problem - apparently it keeps losing a spark plug. Note I've not seen the car yet. Any ideas why this might be? Are there any other issues with these to consider. It's a 2000 model and I'm

| Door mirror heaters | 25 Sep 2006 20:16 GMT | 14 |
Anyone know a source of these - the actual cards only - or of cheapish replacement mirror glasses for any car that have them so I could transfer them to mine? The correct ones are NLA for my SD1.

Just found my reverse lights not working last night when I got home. Checked the bulb/fuse and all OK. It's either wiring or reverse switch says me... No idea where the switch is so had a dig about.

Noticed a couple of days ago that my clutch pedal had become a little more stiff to push, and when pushing to the floor creaked a little - I attributed this to maybe the pedal needing a lube and thought nothing more of it. Went on a fairly long drive today, drove into a ...

Had a look round Halfords, and they don't appear to do any heated replacements.

| Aldi Welder | 25 Sep 2006 10:18 GMT | 30 |
I see Aldi has a welder in at the moment for 34.99, which seems very cheap. I currently have no need to weld anything, but it's a skill I've been meaning to try and pick up and am sure in the future will be able to put the machine to use.

Went to the supermarket to drop of some recycling tonight, and on returning to the car it wouldn't start. All the dashboard lights lit up, but seemingly no current going to the starter motor. The car has an alarm which hasn't operated properly since I bought it, but
