My Philips dvdram sdvd8821h will not write dvd's! It will write and play cd's and play dvd's but won't write dvd's. Is there an obvious problem I'm overlooking? I am just trying to backup my business accounts using Microsoft software that came already on my laptop. Thanks in advance Andy

Further to an earlier post, I have bought new rear shockers for my 1999 Ford Courier van (traling arm suspension). Simple enough, no springs, I thought! Got top and bottom bolts out of shockers easy enough, but can't get shocker off bottom mount. The metal bush part of the shocker in the...

cheers

Loud clunking noise from back of van - inspected and the tops of the shock absorbers are rattling around on the bolts that hold them to the body. The rubber mounts have virtually gone aswell (hence the clunking). When I buy new shocks, will I get the rubber mounts with them in a kit, or do I...

Sorry, that should have read; "Any constructive help appreciated"

I have just had a sectional garage built and I want to put an office in it. What is the best way to go about this? The floor of the garage has been tanked out and concreted, so it's just the walls and ( pent, concrete fibre) roof that I don't know what to do with. Any help appreciated...

I currently already have a garage base, it is concrete with a layer of screed on the top to provide a smooth floor and is 16ft long. I have got rid of my old asbestos garage and have ordered a new sectional garage. However! my new garage is 14 ft longer than my old garage. Can I lay another...

My insurer has decided that they want proof that my rear seat conversion has been professionally fitted. How do I go about this when it was fitted whenI bought it? Can a garage give it a "clean bill of health" that I can pass on to my insurer?

I have a ford courier van , 1998 1.8 diesel. It has just been serviced, but I have noticed for about a month now that it has lost power. Would this be a timing fault? I've heard that timing is quite critical on diesels. Would I have to take the van to a garage to fix it?

I will look in the mornin'. Cheers for the replies

I have an R reg fiesta 1.2zetec and a t reg fiesta courier van. I seem to have the same fault on them both, where there is water getting into the passenger footwell. The water is coming from behind the dash board somewhere, I don't think it is from the windscreen seal. The van is quite bad as...
