    Upbadging Nonces

    I was behind this beast earlier. The lesser known Ford S-Max ST TSX (It's a diesel). The sticker just topped it off nicely!

    I've noticed a CRX parked around the corner from me a few times recently. Not seen one in years.

    Headlight Washer Blanks - MOT Fail on Xenons

    Headlight washers aren't a testable item on pre september 2009 cars, so you are fine.

    Advice after incident on motorway.

    You can apply that logic to many things in life, but if you worried about everything that 'could' happen you'd never leave the house!

    If your brake light fails, your cars scrapworthy

    Unless it's changed in recent MOT updates then I understand it as follows: if fitted and connected (but not working) - it's a fail. If fitted but not connected its an advisory. Although the tester isn't allowed to check if the light is connected so it should always be a pass and advise really.

    Improving WiFi in the house

    In our previous we suffered a similar issue. The VM router was in the garage (at my request) but it made the wifi signal poor in the living room and a couple of bedrooms. I sorted it on the cheap with 50m of eBay special cat 6 cable routed around the perimeter of the house externally, an old...

    No door cards - mot?

    As long as all the door handle to open the door is still there, I can't see it being a problem.

    Impact Gun...(again)

    To be fair, my Makita one doesn't cope well with wheel nuts. It's only rated to 160nm and wasn't really what I bought it for though. It's great at making jobs faster, which is what I wanted from it. I attempt whatever I'm undoing with the impact driver first - if it won't budge I have a...

    Impact Gun...(again)

    I use these with my Makita 1/4" Impact driver - no problems at all (I realise it says 80Nm max but seems to have coped fine so far) https://www.screwfix.com/p/erbauer-socket-driver-set-3-pieces/6297d

    Urgent help please!!

    I remember the lowering springs on my '98 Corsa B being loose enough to remove by hand if you jacked it up, it went through an MOT fine. This was 18 years ago though, so of very little use to you in this situation.
