Just been to the beach and on the way back i was driving along and signalled to turn right. Nothing was coming so i turned only to hear a bang and the car jolt sideways. Some c*nt in an old Hyundai saloon thingy pulled out the junction and hit the back of my car, and i had right of way!!! to...

been back to reno today cos the new engine mount they fitted didnt cure my knocking noise. Their verdict was to blame it on my "wider rubber". Ive got 195/45/R16 TOYO PROXES fitted and they blamed them for putting too much strain on the engine and there was nothin they could do about it...

Can someone help... been looking at buyin one of these but ive seen that it says it comes with the laser detector as standard but the radar detector is an optional extra. I thought most portable cameras and guns used radar so surely this is no good as it wont pick em up? see here...

Anyone used these K-Tec springs? was thinking bout the -35mm ones for my 1.4 16v. Are they much stiffer than the standard ones and how do they perform? link: http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=247http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=247 Ta, Dan.

when i press/release the clutch theres a knocking noise coming from somewhere. Got the engine mount done today so it aint that... any ideas? It only seems to happen in the lower gears (1, 2, and 3).

Howdy, I had an engine mount replaced under warranty 3 months ago... since then my warranty has expired and the same engine mount has broken. Ive spoken to Reno and they said that the 12 month parts warranty on the engine mount didnt take effect because of my cars warranty. In short they...

Right, i wanna slam my car but all i want to do is make the gap between the tyre and the arch the same distance all round (if that makes sense). Basically, i dont want it to look like a 4x4 which it does at the moment with a big gap above the tyre. How much do u recommend i get it dropped? i...

Been to Birmingham today so filled up with petrol before i went. Did a round trip of 320 miles and it used a whole tank of petrol!!! the whole journey was on the motorway doing 70-100 mph so u would think fuel consumption would be good...... i only have a 1.4 16v Alize. What do u guys get...

my nearside window struggles to go up when i push the button. Its much slower than the offside window and seems to really struggle, going up very slowly. Any suggestions?!

dunno if thiss the right section but... i dropped my keys just now and the push button wont work now. I know i can use it as a normal key but the thing is i have no door knobs to lock the car with so have to go round to each individual door and lock it. Shouldnt the drivers door lock all of...

just been into my local ICE shop and hes recommended some Kicker components for the front of my car. Theyre 16cm so will need to trip the panel a bit. Anyone ever used Kicker stuff, and if so your feedback would be appreciated. Also if anyone else wants to comment....!

Ive got my sony remote adapter for the wheel stalk control, is this the same adapter to use for the dash display... it dont seem to be working at the moment. Do i need a different adapter for the display, if so what one and where can i get my mits on one!?

may be a stupid question but here goes anyway... if my sony HU says 4x52 watts output, does this mean it can only output to 4 speakers? Sorry in advance for asking what could be an obvious question!

Just wonderin if the front speakers in my 2001 Alize run with crossovers? if so where are the crossovers located and is it easy to replace the whole front system with components?
