    Starting Problems With Car

    I've been having some problems lately starting my car. Sometimes it starts straight away but I've noticed if I've left the heating on I try starting it, then there's a click and the battery symbol disappears. The red light (immobiliser?) stays on. Then if I move the car forward and back it...

    Beginner Looking For Advice...

    Merry Christmas firstly! I have bought a Nikon D60 with an 18-55mm lens, case rechargeable battery, charger, 8GB memory card and carry case for £150 off a friend. It is in fantastic condition, used once or twice. Can anyone recommend anything to buy for it? Thanks, Rick.

    Strange Clicking/Clunking Sound

    It has only appeared over the last few days but when I pull off in first gear and put my foot down there is a clunking/clicking weird rattling sound. Does anybody know what this sound is? Appears to be coming from the engine bay and possibly the passenger side. Any help greatly appreciated.

    Dull Humming Sound?

    Not sure if this is the correct section but when I accelerate I can hear a dull humming sound and if I leave it in 5th gear and just take my foot off the accelerator or brake it just hums loudly as it slows down. When I turn to the left it gets louder and when I turn to the right it seems to go...

    Help with my misfire?

    I took my car to a friend today to get the car put on a computer for a diagnostic as it has lost a lot of power in ever gear from low revs and judders a lot. He advised it was mis-firing on cylinder 4 and told me to get a new pencil coil? and by fitting this should solve the problem. I have...

    Flat tyre.

    Well was out last night and think I am a very lucky man to be honest. Was driving about 70 and the car felt fine but when I came a slip road I turned the wheel and the car slid a bit, I didn't think much of it and carried on a bit further then it done it again and I nearly lost control, so I...

    Seats All Fitted & Completed

    With the help of 'dajones' fitted my fronts and door cards a few weeks ago and only fitted the rear bench tonight as we couldn't get the bolt out that holds them in. So the angle grinder came out to play. Now all fitted and I am extremely happy.

    Finally got myself some..

    The car is nearly all finished off now, perhaps apart from some xenons. Didn't cost me too much, just need to get them fitted now. £340 for fronts, rears and doorcards. From an 05 plate in absolutely mint condition. Anyone got a guide to fitting these seats into my MK2 Phase 2. Cheers.
