Good People
I have just fitted new rear shoes and cylinders to Micra Number 2.
Instead of decent. god-fearing brake adjusters it has the spawn of
satan automatic sort, and they are now, of course, fully unadjusted.

hello to the group
do any of you guys know where the a 51 plate 2.0l petrol ford maverick has a
timing belt or a chain
many thanks

I bought a 206 last weekend. 1.4 on a T plate with 82K on the clock. Drove
it 20 odd miles home with no problems. I've had it parked up in the drive
since, as I've not taxed it yet. Started it up this evening and the revs
shot straight up to 2.7K and stayed there. Turned it off then ...

On Saturday evening, the 900's boost went on holiday. The ghost got a bit
louder, and the boost gauge only just went above atmospheric pressure.
Quick look on Sunday in the rain showed that the boost pipework was all
firmly in place, nothing obvious, and the various vac hoses ...

Had a bit of trouble starting this thing recently. Have to turn engine about
10 times to get it to fire. Usually fires as soon as the glowplug light goes
out. I've checked obvious like air in fuel line to injection pump (it has a
clear section so you can look for air bubbles). ...

Bit if a dumb question I know but can't find it in the book. What is the
warning light that looks like a car with a spanner sticking out of the
roof? Its by the "7" on the rev counter.
It comes on sometimes after a mile or so driving. Not engine management,

I've recently borrowed a 2000 model Peugeot 306 90bhp HDI whilst my other
main car is off the road.
I've found that on day in day out short journeys etc, it manages 43mpg.
Doesn't seem too bad really.

Hi, i just bought a new 08 Astra with 1300 miles on the clock. The service
book has no service history in it yet but i wondered when it needs its first
minor service. Its the first car i've owned this young and i know at one
time the first oil change was  at a low mileage. Is ...

The heater plugs on my 10 year old Peugeot 106 are, I think, failing.  The
car is harder to start in the cold weather and runs a bit rough for a few
seconds.
But the question is - can I just put up with it, without it causing any

Knocking noise coming from nearside front. Gets progressively worse as speed
increases.
Something wrong with driveshaft or joint ?

Are there any that don't? My Focus is pretty good in this respect being the
newest car I've owned for a while and not afflicted by bleeding great holes
in the undercarriage like the XR2i that preceded it but it still steams up
inside, mainly on the front windscreen, on ...

Is it possible to adjust front lamps beam by myself? If so, how?
Tks for your time.

Will I destroy O2 (lambda) sensor if I run my car on 10-15 liters
of leaded fuel that's left in the tank?

I usually fill up at a local Total station, and normally use their standard
ultra-low sulphur unleaded for my 2000 Astra 1.6 16v.   They also sell an
"Excellium" fuel which they claim gives better MPG and more power.  Just
wondered if anyone who has tried it thinks it made any ...

Does anyone know of a product which is as good as, or close, to a chrome
finish? Most silver paints I've come across are OK for Christmas holly but
not for the chrome parts of a car. Plastic wheel trims seem to manage it.
