    Car has trouble staying at a steady speed

    This is what I originally thought. You thinking maybe the switch on the pedal itself? That shudnt be too hard to replace I wouldn't have thought. Didn't want to just go replacing things invade somebody had experienced it and knew exactly what it was. Does seem to be many people having this fault...

    Car has trouble staying at a steady speed

    Yeah hopefully somebody does have a clue what it is. It's not all the time aswell it's just a random occurrence n all other times the car is fine. It's literally like I've took my foot off the pedal but I havnt. Then when the cruise control did it aswell I thought I best ask on here.

    Car has trouble staying at a steady speed

    Weird one this but I'll try to explain it the best i can. When I'm cruising along at say 70mph with my foot steady on the accelerator pedal the car will slow down all of a sudden as I've took my foot off the pedal. When I do take my foot of the pedal and put it back on it'll speed back up...

    182 Replacement Exhaust Question

    Right. Clio's just failed the MOT for a hole in the backbox. They've told me and I've read on here that even though its two seperate backboxes its one whole unit. They've quoted me £500 for a new Renault one which funnily enough I'm not too keen on. Question is.. I've looked at cat back...

    Wheel Scuff. Repairable?

    So a good wheel refurb place could sort that out without doing the whole wheel you reckon then?

    Wheel Scuff. Repairable?

    Did this awhile ago and because of the grey wheels its noticeable so is doing my nut in. Is this repairable or would you think its a full refurb? Nothing else is wrong with the wheel at all. Thanks

    Electrics Problem ..

    I read somewhere that people have been cleaning the connector blocks on the back light clusters with wd40. They had the same sorta symptoms just not as many dash lights lighting up as you. Could try that maybe?

    Cambelt and Auxilliary belt

    Quick question. Alternator failed about two months ago and it was replaces under warranty. What wasn't covered tho was the belt that drives it. Am I right in thinking this is the auxilliary belt? The full kit was changed u was told (to maintain alternator warranty). I've booked in at...

    LED Tail/Stop Lamp Messing with Cruise Control

    I see what you mean. Guess the car can't actually check the brakes are working so I guess they made a compromise lol

    Standard brakes

    Just yours? Found my brakes were pretty good standard. Also, you shouldn't be doing 80mph so there's your problem :P

    LED Tail/Stop Lamp Messing with Cruise Control

    Indeed. Its not that strange really. Cruise control when turned on checks certain aspects of the car (safety). Checking the brake lights actually work is not so far fetched, i know it checks the brake switch but this doesn't prove the lights are actually working. One to check for all these...

    Ignition/key issue

    The only thing i can think of is the steering wheel does need to be moved a little so the steering lock doesn't affect the turning of the key. For example if my steering lock is on i cant just put my key in a turn it most times i have to move the steering wheel ever so slightly. Maybe you do...
