Wifes car would not start the other day. Took booster box, started
first time {her batt not flat though] Did a 30mile round trip and

Following morning, same prob again. No luck with booster box. Mech

Im thinking of spraying my car in good old fashioned cellulose, this would
be inside a barn to protect it from the elements, but humidity is high this
time of year (my humidity gauge is showing 70%-80% ) Does this matter?? as

I've got a couple of bits for my MK2 Golf that could do with fixing - an
arch spat with a crack in it near the bottom (£46 plus the dreaded!?!), and
a couple of sill covers with bits and bobs of broken fixings and the like
(they're one of these lovely setups with loads of clips).

Just started as I neared home today. I'd just driven 65 miles and it
was fine but now the lights flashing.

My 4 wheel ifor williams trailer drives perfectly OK forwards, and

some and fitted them when I got home. The nearside pads where only ...

Just wondering if anyone can help me with this?  I just bought a year
old Vauxhall Astra SRi (15k miles) and have a bit of an issue with the
steering.  Basically the steering wheel seems to 'wobble' around a lot
whenever I run over a small dip/pot hole or even with slight cambers

My son bought a Renault Clio 1.2 some weeks back, assuming he would pass
his test first time. He didn't, nor the second, and the Clio sits there
looking unloved. I try to give it a short run every week or so, but I'm a

I need some help to disassemble the distributor (I will fabricate a
