Went to click wipers onto 2nd speed today and they just continued wiping at the normal speed, is there a relay which controls the 2 speeds?

Have been replacing the jubilee clips on my CV gaiters with the crimp type but am now unsureif I have them ( the gaiter) fitted correctly. It feels like the rubber gaiter has a lip on the inside which is locating in the outside diameter of the CV joint. Am I correct in thinking this?

Does anyone else have this, new steering arm gaiter on my Clio has started to crack at the small end after less than a year on the car, also put new gaiters on my mini less that 2 years ago and these have cracked too. They were not cheap ones either

Notice that my rear brake lines are looking crusty where they clip onto the rear beam. I have seen some posts where the steel pipe has been replaced by braided hose? Is this preferable to copper pipe and what do I need to do it?

Have been under the car this morning tackling some corrosion on the underfloor. It has appeared in the same spot on both sides of the car in the small triangular section just in front of the springs. Scraped, jurist and waxoyled now so hopefully should be good for a time. Has anyone else...

A question that has been bugging me.Does anyone know why the 172/182 have hydraulic power steering when electric is used on the 1.2? I would have thought a performance car would want to do away with any the extra engine load that comes with the pump or does the electric motor demand more energy...

Been under the car this morning trying to sort my blowing exhaust (cat to centre silencer join) looking at the front face of the silencer there seems to be what looks like small stress cracks forming in the stainless steel, has anyone else had similar with stainless systems?

Had a constant blow from the centre joint at the rear of the cat. Have got a 192 Stainless fitted and have heard these are difficult to seal properly. Could anyone advise how these can be properly sealed and clamped?
As title says, i have a click click when taking up drive, I recently replaced the dog bone and the sound went but the new dog bone allowed the manifold to hit the anti roll bar and cause a horrendous noise when booting it (This was the steel plate version) . I have now changed this dog bone back...
Im getting an annoying whistling sound from the ventilation system, Seems to be coming from the windscreen vents, no adjustment of the heater controls seems to make any difference however these are working as the airflow changed to the desired vent the sound persists. Could this be due to a...

Anyone know where I can get the manifold to cat gasket from. I only need the gasket. Also what size exhaust clamp do I need for the join from the other end of the cat to the exhaust system
