Help Just popped out to the shops and lunchtime and as I pulled back into my drive there was a serious clunking sound coming from underneath my Leon. Just been back out in and it its seems to have settled down, bar the seat belt adjuster rattling like nothing. All I can think is I live...

Hi All, I Have an Ibiza 1.2 on a 55 plate so it is due for its second service next month. Apparently I will be charged well over £200 for this, nearly twice the price of the first service when the car was one year old. Despite this, it seems a lot of the things that I "gained" from the...

I have an '06 (June) 2.0 TDi Sport. I cannot remember if this happens for both rear doors, but when I open the offside rear door after it has rained or I have washed it I get what seems like a lot of water coming from the bottom of the door. I have read up on the "wetwindows" thing, but I...

...but I don't know what to do about it! Basically I took out my pollen filter last night and found a puddle underneath it. It looks like water has practically been gushing through both sides of the filter - it's properly soaked! So dryed it out, and the carpet with the missus' hair dryer...

Recently, my LCR has started to overheat when staying still (first noticed it on the M6 in a gridlock), and it appears that the car is shuddering when trying to start the fans, but not actually managing to start them at all. Is there anything simple to check, or is this going to cost me an...

Sorry if this has been posted before but I can't find it.... :confused: I have the standard spec FR with the small MFD, when we leave the headlights on and lock the car they go off after 30 seconds or so. (The wife likes this feature especially in the M&S car park) But when we return to...

When washing the car on Saturday I noticed what I thought was a scratch on my door. It's the front left door, right down in the corner by the front wheel. Basically, if you run your finger from the right of the door, to the left towards the bottom corner, when you almost reach the corner...
