I've been having problems for ages with my car either not starting for a couple of tries, or just dieing when I put the clutch down at lights or something. But then once it's warmed up the problems generally fixes itself, although not always. But in the last couple of days it's now twice not...

So my mot ticks off in a couple of weeks, and obviously I don't particulary feel like failing it. But the problem is that I am going to fail it. So any tips tricks that might scrape me through (other than bribery, which might actually be a possibility :quiet: ) would be really...

My car's developed a lovely new problem to baffle me The first time I had it, it went something a little like this.... On my commute there's a big twisty downhill section (a36 into Bath) with backed up traffic for the lights at the bottom, so I just neutral roll it down there and it takes...

Having had my car for a few months I finally got bored of the factory tape player, and went and got a Cd player (sony something or other). Seeing as I now actually have a choice over the music I play (instead of just cycling through an REM tape, one compilation and a Rage Against The Machine...

I'm rubbish at telling the types of clio apart, but I think it looked like a 182. Vague eye contact (he was obviously envious of my limited edition biarritz ;) ) as he was pulling into the car park at about 1 ish. Anyone here? If so, your car was quite shiny, it's very nice. :approve:

I've had problems for a while now, where the immobiliser won't properly turn off when I click the central locking, but I've always found it could be started by just revving it a bit as it was turning over. But earlier today after I had it parked up in town, so it was starting from cold, it...

We're jamming, It's jamming, and I hope you jamming too.... sorry Anyway, my window's not all that awesome at the mo. It'll wind down a couple of inches, then gets stuck. It makes a kind of metally noise, so I'm don't want to try forcing it and scratch the glass. I'm guessing it comes off...

So I'm trying to install a driver for a new webcam, and installshield's throwing up this error. Now I've followed their consumer help instructions, but when I try to install the different version of the installer, it has the same problem. So basically, I can't install the driver because the...

Seeing as I can't afford to actually modify my car (Elvis), I thought I'd do some colouring in on the bump strips and mirror plastics (currently faded black) instead. At first I was like, 'Yeah I'll just colour code it to red', but then I thought, 'Wait, why not have white bumpers?' and then I...

I need help with this, because I'm magically unknowledgeable about cars. I've had my Mk1 for a couple of months, and it keeps freaking me out when I go round corners. Now this isn't everytime I corner, but every now and then, the steering will just go really light and quite unreponsive...

If I had the money, time and ability, I'd make one at the drop of a hat though. :D Apologies for slight randomness. But seriously, if money, effort and time were no object, what would you do to your car? It's woodwork all the way for me. :approve:

Ok so I got my first car yesterday, a lovely little 1.2 Clio, and I thought every seemed just grand, until earlier today. I'd just filled up at the garage, but when I restarted the engine started idling at (I'm guessing here, because I don't have a rev counter) about 3000 rpm, and seemed to...
