Hi, I've been told a few times by other dirvers that my headlights are way too bright, like on full beams bright. Whenever I look they seem fine, which has got me thinking that it might be the auto levelling thing is broken and they roll up and down randomly. A bloke in a 911 suggested this...

Hi, There is a strange high pitch noise coming from somewhere outisde the car when driving (i can only hear with the window down), and seems to be mainy at around 40mph, almost sounds like brake squeel from my pads (i've got Ferodo 2500's). Any idea what this can be? I've had a look at the...

Hi, I am pretty sure (90%!) that I will buy the white MacBook (120GB), but have never used a mac before! They seem very functional, meet my needs and for the price (£700) im not getting a much better PC anyway. Is it that hard to learn to use them? Has anyone here got one? Thanks in...

Hi, I have been wondering recently about putting on the handbrake after a drive when the discs are hot, how bad it is for the brakes? I usualy try to let them cool down but living pretty central in London I don't reallt want to leave it off even though the road is flat (i live 20mins from...

So, took the 182 for 4 new exaltos saturday to kwik fit (they priced matched £344 all in). When inspecting them before paying i noticed they had scratched 3 alloys (rubber on machine wearing and them not paying attention in stopping it above the wheel while changing). I approached them about...

Hi, I have a 182 and while washing it today (yes I know it was raining!) I couldn't open the bonnet, the catch simply didn't work. I didn't bump it or anything unusual, is this a common problem? Thanks, Alex
