    BAD Knock when I suddenly accelerate

    Noticed this last night, when removing my foot from the accelerator pedal and then suddenly putting it back on, right the way down. I get a very nasty clunk/bank noise coming from what sounds to be the drivers side, near the wheel. Obviously might be somewhere else but that's where it sounds...

    Wobbly Headlight Unit (Still adjusts up and down)

    I just had a massive look at the drivers side headlight, I turned the adjuster till the light started tilting up, then put them back down, so the tilter is still ok. It is easy to stop the insides from moving side to side or is it easier to just buy a new headlight? I'm honestly sick of it and...

    Well I've bought the shocks on the ebay link above and hopefully they will arrive tomorrow or thursday!! Is it worth getting coil spring clamps? Or are they not needed, would they make it easier?

    Think my rear shocks have gone like!!

    When I drive over bumpy roads where the winter ice has damaged them, once I go over a bump for about a second afterwards the car is still vibrating and is very light on the road. When going over the same type of road, but turning, the back end spins out pretty badly!! I'm thinking its the shocks...

    Air con keeps cutting in and out

    Found the problem, the resistor had rotten, which powers the cooling fan which should run slowly as soon as the a/v is switched on. Anyway I'm going to do a quick solder repair. Will let you know if it fixes it. Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using Tapatalk

    Air con keeps cutting in and out

    I have read that the cooling fan is two speed and obviously if that isn't running then its not cooling and hence the bottom pipe which is getting hot is because of the fan. The fan does come on but only in fast. Should the fan come on in slow speed when the a/v is turned on. Can someone try...

    Air con keeps cutting in and out

    An unusual one but I think its due to overheating. I had my car charged up at kwik fit two weeks ago, air con was ice cold after the charge but its been losing its coldness as the weeks have gone by. I had a look just now and in the picture below the top pipe goes cold and the smaller pipe...

    Air Con does not work

    Yeah checked the relays and fuses. Its been sat for 6 months doing nothing whilst i've been away on deployment, parents ran it around for a bit but probably didn't use the air con, so its probably all gone!

    Air Con does not work

    I've had problems with my air con before when it was losing gas but when I clicked the AC button you could here the aircon "click" on and the revs would change, Now i'm getting nothing. I'm guessing the fuse may have blown but i'd like some advise on what else it may be!
