bang

Hello, before i start i would have to say apart from knowing what ICE i like and paying for it, i dont fit it or know anything technical! What happens is whenever the power goes to the headunit (everytime i start the car etc) the subs bang for a second! If that makes sense, then sometimes if i...

hi guys cars has decided to go bang! it went thump under the bonnet while driving about 20 then there was no power so put foot down and got lots of smoke. Now its struggles to get up to speed it starts to chug around the turbo rev range and sounds like its blowing like a dodgy exhaust...

Just had my ibiza recovered to the local dealership after a rather loud bang and a cloud of smoke flew out the exhaust there was oil all over the road and the back of the car. :cry: It's only an 06 but I've done 64k what do you think my chances of persuading seat UK to buy me a new turbo are?

Hi peeps I got my cambelt and waterpump changed today - no problems. But the mechanic did say that a clip holding the pipe on leaving the turbo was about knackered, and looked like it could pop off soon. Lo and behold, on the way home - it did. At least i think it was that, there was a big...

Have just popped to the local PO. Gone over a speed bump, about 15-20mph and heard this huge bang on the passenger side from the wheel arch. Sounded like ... erm ... a really large snowball had hit inside the wheel arch. Driven back to work ok. Brakes work. Can still turn the car. But there...

Im sure that over the last six months my idle has started to vary a little more...its not hunting by a lot but you can feel it bobble a bit now and again...just wondering if Ive made it up and its always done this or something isnt quite right.....and if so what it likely to be...Im thinking...

I have a full cat back stainless exhaust made by Janspeed, and i am very happy with it, its nice and quiet around town and then it screams if you boot it. However, my friend has a magnex 6x9 and his pops and bangs everynow and again, like a disobediant rally slag! I love this popping and i...

Got the car washed yesterday, took for it for a spin on the motorway, put my foot down, heard a horrible noise, looked in the mirror and saw black smoke everywhere............ouch AA towed me to a dealer and they advise diesel has leaked into the oil. Car has only done 786 miles and they are...

Well last night I had to get my car towed into the dealer after something went bang (well not literally bang but you get the idea). The AA chap who came out seems to thing the bottom end has gone, but I'm not so sure it's that bad. I was driving along, and floored it to pass a lorry before...

Our new Leon FR TDI, 3wks old 600miles, clutch hasn't felt right and we get the occasional whiff of something so we called Holders of Congresbury and was meant to be going there on Monday for a test drive. Except it didn't get to Monday, its gone bang. Pedal isnt doing anything. Other half...

as i am looking at getting an early Leon (2001 - 2002) is it alot of car for your money? I reckon so :D can't think of many other cars as solid as the 1.8T, 5 doors, lots of toys and also with a few nice mods (just wheels and suspension) it can look a really great car opinions...

Just after getting off the M1 at Jct 13 on Tuesday evening the turbo went bang and a smoke screen of 'Turbo Era F1' proportions ensued !!:censored: What has REALLY pi$$ed me off though is that allegedly that problem with the turbo had be 'rectified' by a service and warranty centre on the...

Just hit something in the road on the dual carraige way this afternoon. Was a bang under front drivers side wheel then engine cut out. When i had pulled over i noticed the passenger side seat airbag had gone off and girlfriend was pinned in seat by seat belt tensioners! Should the airbag go off...

The other morning i came off a roundabout onto a dual carriageway, floored the accelerator in 3rd gear, there was violent juddering for a moment, then a rather loud bang from the gearbox area. The esp light was also going nuts during this. The car still drives and seems fine transmission wise...

My beeza has gone bang comming back from town today, by the looks of it, its the chain drive to the front cams, so my valves could be in pieces :cry: :censored: anyone any ideas how much i would cost me to fix? im going to try and get some quotes tomorrow. Ali

Just got back to my car, I always fold the mirrors in. So I blindly spun the mirror control 180 and a "whhiiirrrrr BANG BANG BANG"..... Looks like I DIDNT fold them in, but someone did manualy from the outside, so when I thought i was putting them back out, I was actually pulling them...
