Maybe I am asking to much. I have just bought a low mileage 06 Ford
Focus ST2. The radio is a Sony with a "phone" button on the buttons,
at the back left of the steering wheel there is a black stalk with
"volume, search" etc on it, on the top there is a button which says

After someone kindly smashed the rear window on my Peugeot 306 and I
fancied a trip round the local yards I realised I didn't know of any.
(Most of my scrap yard experience comes from the southwest).  Queries to
friends who've lived in the Blackpool/Fylde area for years didn't ...

I'm trying to get a replacement F25 gearbox for my Cavalier. Will pick up
anywhere around central Scotland, or further if necessary.
Thanks!

A mate of mine has a 55-plate Peugeot 407 that has a "central display
unit", which gives out trip info, radio station, climate control
display, etc.
For the first 25-30 minutes of driving, the display is nice and crisp,

we have a 1999 focus and for some reason when we press remote nothing
happens  have changed battery in it but still not working  what else
can be wrong with it key still locks all doors when turned
any help  appreciated

Do you grease the thread part of a caliper pin or the "flat" part of it ?

to get. Do any later Rover V-8 engined models use a similar system -
preferably where the sensor will fit the existing thread in the sump -
even although the electronics etc are different?

just want to check the costs here are ok my Mot failed for the
following
Anti Roll Bar Rubber bushes Both sides
Suspension Arm Rubber Bushes(wishbone) both sides

We just got a Saxo 1.1 - 2001 - 87k miles, drives really well apart from
one issue. When trying to hold a constant speed with just a touch of the
throttle applied, there is a hesitancy/judder - which is cleared if you
either ease right off or apply more throttle.

Any ideas about the best/cheapest way to repair a PAS hose
which is leaking under pressure from the crimped union between
the hose and the metal pipe which connects to the PAS pump?
I don't want to fork out for a new hose, if someone could point me

I have a 7 seater Volkswagen Touran and i am filling it up with oil
for the first time but am overwhelmed by the choice of brands and oils
with which to use.
Does anyone know which is the best and most correct one to use?

When you buy plugs for a modern car - do you still have to adjust the gap or
is all that stuff history ?
as you can tell - i'm a keen mechanic :)

It's been a while since I've posted a question as I'm now down to only
one Punto :D
A month back I had the rear brake drum off and noticed that the rear of
the two shoes on each side was worn nearly to the metal only at the top

I havent replaced the fuel filter on my Fiat Bravo since I bought it
some 3 years ago, and I'm not sure when it was done before that.
I am going to replace it this weekend. I just want to knwo if anyone
knows what effect it will have on perfrmance, I'm guessing if its old
