Hey does anyone know wot this could be?? I was takin a friend home last nite when i pulled away & noticed vast plumbs of white smoke comming from my exhaust as i went up the road. Suspected head gasket so checked coolant levels but it doesn't seem to have dropped and i hav no discernable loss...

Ive just ordered a phone with lots of minutes, texts and unlimited internet but i'm really worried now cos saw lots of bad reviews online bout hidden charges for voicemail and stuff?? Has anyone else had any experience good or bad with them??

Ive got a basic 360 but sadly without an internet connection. Is it possible for me to download new 'car packs' using the pc at work onto a USB pen & plug that into my xbox to upgrade that way???

I need to clean the tea strainer on the fuel pump under the back seats, how do i go about that? do i hav to de-pressurize the system so fuel doesnt go everywhere? how do i do that? help appreciated

As title, i'm hunting for a little scorcher!

Hey had the mechanic over tonite about my recent starting problem and we identified MASSES of air in the fuel line visible between the high pressure pump & the fuel filter & line attached to other end of the primer (where does that go?) Does anyone hav any idea how the air could have got in...

As title really, my dci used to return me 8p per mile but now with rising fuel prices its more like 10-11p per mile :( As full tank from the red light in the DCI is £72!!!!! How much to fill up a 172 from the red light? using standard petrol...

I was driving my dci home late the other nite when the engine management light & red stop light (the ones in the centre of the console) started flashing. The flashing stopped so i carried on cautiously (no loss of power that i could detect) but anyways they came on again about 1 min later and i...

After ages of trying to figure of wot could be causing a click noise from my clutch pedal we've finally worked it out. The clutch is hydraulic and in simple terms: at the top of the clutch pedal is a ROD which pushes the master / slave cylinder of the clutch. The plastic rod on mine tho has...

A couple of months back my front tyres were lookin a little sorry for themselves so i took the car in to hav another set of A539's put on and they said they were no longer made.... They put on the new equivilent (the S-Drive) and now my car handles like rubbish, the front tyres don't grip...

Ok ok ive posted a lot of qu's about this lately i'l admit, but for good reason :) Ive decided that its finally time to wave bub bye DCi in favour of something a little more powerful. I used to own a 106 quiksilver which was slow but i liked the fact it was small and handled a bit like a...

A friend bought a new car which said it had a new 'Ancillary drive belt', does that mean cambelt? Also do they do the tracking in an MOT?

My neighbour has one of those big V8 MG's from 2004, can't remember what model they call it but its 260 bhp and must weigh a lot. It does 70 in second apparently. Would a cup match that? How quick are cups in 1st, 2nd, 3rd etc? :)

Hey guys, is the engine the same in both the 172 and the 182? And if so where did teh extra 10 bhp come from? :)

Still can't forget about this one, is it a cup beater? :) keep hearing variations on the official 0-60, anyone know wot it is?

Which has the better handling? I know the cups are meant to be good but hows the steering? my dci feels kinda vague thru the wheels whereas my old pug has excellent feedback from the wheel. Did the reno sport make fast improvements cos the pugs obviously less powerful and slower, but probs a...

Hey ive got a prob with my dci atm. Sometimes (but not every time) when i push the clutch in to change gear theres a loud 'Crack!' that seems to come from down there & it makes it near impossible to get it into gear with the clutch fully depressed! I find i hav to really stamp my foot down on...

Hey, was wonderin if its worth boring out my dci & how far i could take it...its a 1461 cc atm, could i reach 1.6 & would it make it any faster? lol

My clutch has been slipping pretty badly for months now & i need a competant person to change it for me without massive cost. I already have the clutch kit, just need someone in the south of england to do the work for me for less than £500 labour only lol Cash in hand :)

I know its off topic & hardly the point, but how economical would a mini with a yamaha bike engine in it be? :) could it be used as a mad but useable day to day car too?

Hey guys, sorry if this is a a repost... I got a problem with the revs soaring when i put my foot down...(its a remapped clio dci 100...) It used to do it only when when i accellerated hard in 4th or 5th, but it now does it in 3rd & its started to worry me... Does anyone have any idea wot...
