    Civic 1.8 Suspension help

    Hi, I have a riddle for ya'll! I have something wrong with my front wheels. On straight, pothole-free roads the car drives fine but as soon as the road becomes British I hear clunking coming from the front.... like a loosely fitted ball join. Something like this, I never paid much attention...

    What's wrong with my Smart Keys?

    Don't scare me like that, man, I can't do much with this key: http://f00.inventorspot.com/images/BMW1.jpg You just stick the key in the slot and use the start/stop button for ignition. When the key is in the slot, I can only press the boot button.... which I did. There are manuals for...

    What's wrong with my Smart Keys?

    Hi, The smart keys for my bmw 520d (2006) stopped working, both of them at the same time. I can still unlock the car manualy with a pull out key, but the lock/unlock and boot button all stopped working. The fact that both keys stopped working leads me to think it's not the batteries in fobs...

    Is it legal to sell a car not in your name?

    This chap's not a dealer, selling it from his own home. How can I register the car in my name if the previous owner signed it to this chap?

    Is it legal to sell a car not in your name?

    So I went to have a look at a 520d today. The car seems to be in top condition, runs flawless, he bought a new road tax for it and is insured, all the paper work checks out.... apart from one thing. Now he pointed this out before I spotted it, the car he is selling is not in his name, but in...

    Nearly had a Ladder go through my Windscreen on M25

    Last weekend, I was on the M25... it was fairly busy, I was in the fast lane with 3 other cars in front of me. Out of nowhere, I see a ladder in mid air.... it either flew over the first car, or came off it..... the second car hit it and sent it spinning towards the 3rd car. It sort of landed on...

    Ever road killed anything?

    I've been driving on M45 the other day at night, for those who dont know, it is not lit and you will at most see 1-2 cars going in the same direction as you (we're talking around 10:30pm). Anyways, about half way through I get over taken by some car and watch it speed away down the road... 2...

    Fuel prices in your area

    the 2 places where i regularly fill up are Shell in Barking, east London, and Asda, Coventry.... up till now they used to sell unleaded for 128.7 unleaded.... but now its gone up to ~130.1 But i much prefer the Shell fuel, feels longer lasting.

    De-icing your car.

    De-Icer has been a life saver many times for me, use it with car heater and it shouldnt freeze (never heard of de icer freezing o.O). Give it a few seconds for enough ice to melt, and then wipe it off with wipers. easily the quickest and most effortless way to get rid of ice if ur pressed for time

    anyone did the IAM course?

    Ive been thinking for a long time whether I should do the IAM (Institute of Advanced Motoring) course. Any one here done it? What kind of stuff do they teach you on it?

    If you saw someone stealing a car

    All HELL would break loose if I ever caught anyone mugging my car..... it was broken into... TWICE!! second time was more merciful. But i should say that both times it was my fault. I wont mention what happened the first time, but the second time i was robbed.... it was because the battery in...

    Whiplash backlash

    this is hardly breaking news.... i could have told you that. But at least they are aware of these scams and do something about it. and why should a whiplash be on your car insurance anyway? car insurance should insure either the car you hit and your car (if you chose)..... whiplash is a a claim...
