    Diagnosis required Please...Includes Video.

    Dephaser pulley by the sound of it! Don't drive the car! The part is around £100 from Renault and you will need to replace the Cam-Belt as well. If it's been done recently, just replace the belt, as the tensioner etc should be fine. Just read you're due a belt change, so just do the whole lot...

    Stop Light and Oil Light Up

    To check if it is the sensor, dip the oil using the dipstick. Then, after switching engine on, the car should show up 'oil ok'. If you hit the reset odometer button when oil ok shows, it will show you the oil level. If this is ok, I'd be looking at replacing the oil pressure sensor!

    Help & Advice Also possible client

    I got this on my car from the bodyshop. If the car is wet and you put the car sheet over it, it leaves marks behind. 3m Fast Cut on a 3m Green pad and rotary will remove it. Just go easy and remember to refine with a lighter polish after!

    How much to charge?

    I did a full correction and interior detail on my girlfriends sisters Mini last week. Took me 14hrs. Told her I'd do it for nothing, as I didn't use much products and wanted before and after pictures for my website. She was so pleased with the results she paid me £50 anyway! Wouldn't think of...

    Awesome orange peel removing guide

    I wouldn't attempt it unless you know what you're doing! You def need a ptg for machine polishing! Also use a da for the wet sanding. I used 1200, 1500, 2000 and then finally 3000 all by da, then machine polished with Menz and finished with Onyx

    Are black cars really that much of a mare to keep looking nice?

    They probably chose the colours for that reason alone!

    oil filter wont come off

    You can get removal tools that fit onto a ratchet and go over the end of the filter like a socket. I think halfrauds do them! Like this 1 http://www.pvrdirect.co.uk/products.aspx?tier1=Sealey+Tools&tier2=Vehicle+Service&tier3=Oil+Service+Tools&cmd=list&gclid=CL6JoP-_5J0CFYIA4wodSwpfKA
