Spotted a white 200 yesterday letting a police car through at the lights at Guide Bridge.
I was on the opposite side of the road waiting to turn right towards the train station.
My friend has a Polo 6N and this morning when he's come to start it he's had an issue.
When the key is turned to ignition all the electrics work etc, but when he starts the engine all the electrics die, dashboard, radio etc. Going to go an have a look at it tonight, any advice would be...
Spotted on the M60 between Ashton Under Lyne and Hollinwood this evening.
Looked nice, hello from the guy gawping at your car from my knackered fiesta if you're on here.
Decided the car needed some attention of late so decided give it a good clean 2 nights ago and each night since I've just given it a QD wipedown and added a few more layers of Werkstat Acrylic Jett. Such a boring product to use but I do really like the finish it gives.
Anyway just a couple...
Bored so copying what both South East and South West have done.

So, I decided a while ago that I wanted to start doing a bit of photography and last week the chance to buy a 400D cheap came up. Picked the camera up on Friday night off a friend and hadn't had chance to use it yet.
Today I took it with me when I went for a drive over the Pennines and had a...
Spotted on Oldham bypass last night (not sure what time but it was dark.)
You were behind me coming through sainsburys onto the bypass. Was in a silver Mk5 ZS with a Mk1 MX5 in front and a 6n2 GTi in front of that.
Right, new car, new stock of products.
Just so you know, I'm not looking at spending over £100 on wax etc, just mid range products really.
I currently use Collinite 845 wax which I love but unsure how it will look on a silver car and I'm sure there's a better product out there.
All work will...
Just wondering if anyone has found a solution to what appears to be a common problem.
Basically we've just upgraded to 40mb Broadband (was going to get her0 spec 100mb but we could only get 44ish through our line), and the main PC gets 37mb download, my laptop gets 37mb download, but my MBP...
Hi,
My engine has developed a slight knock on idle and a hissing noise constantly (more noticeable after the engine is switched off for a couple of seconds)
Any ideas? Will upload a video shortly
Hi,
I had my clutch replaced in march due to it slipping slightly at biting point when setting off or on hill starts.
Now the clutch was knackered and did definatley need replacing but this slight slipping was still there. It has now got even worse and when there are a few people in the car...
Replaced my bottom ball joint and now with the steering wheel slightly to the left and stopping the car the whole wheel jerks back and knocks.
What have I knocked out of place???
Need this fixed urgently.
Looked through some other threads on this and people have different suggestions for it,
I have creaky steering when on full lock turning right (when going over a bump or pulling onto my drive it's really noticable). Also at low speeds going over a bump surface or small pot holes it sounds...
Went under the car last night to check the dogbone mount and it looks like it has been replaced quite recenly. While I was there had a wiggle of the gear linkage and it's ridiculously slack. Now am I right in thinking that just above the cat behind the heatshield is a ball joint? And if so...
