It was done last summer, so somewhat warm. The cracking only appeared weeks down the line, not immediately. Do you have any experience with paint work? Can this cracking be fixed or is this ideally a paint off job?

I know this is not a specialist car forum. But can anyone tell me what went wrong? My daughter's Skoda has this horrible lacquer peel. So we / she decided to respray some parts of the car. The paint was sanded down often to bare metal. We used spray cans and started with primer / filler, then...

There is no plant growth for 5 meters either way from it. Everything is concreted over with houses both sides.

I have a bottle of soapy water in a spray bottle in the garage. If I suspect a puncture from the rim or valve I test that first and look for bubbles. Easy test. Rim corrosion - easy fix as mentioned above. Just ask a tyre shop to clean up the corrosion and reseat the tyre.

Less than a year old - call the supplier.

Thanks for the replies. Just as an update. I the end it was a toilet off and 2.5m of snake wire with 2 people twisting screwing it through the "sediment" and pull some back and push the rest through.

Hello, I think I know part of the answer, just need confirmation. Our downstairs toilet is blocked. We have a concrete floor and a concrete drive next to the toilet. There are no manwhole covers immediately next by but the outside drains are clear - I looked in there. I have tried a plunger -...

We had a similar problem. We kept loosing hot water from the pressure release valve from our hot water cylinder. We have several thermostatic mixer valves. One had allowed pressure from the cold limb, which was not pressure reduced, backwards into the hot water cylinder through the outlet of the...

And back to the original question after all this rant. We have a heat pump outside our bedroom window - about 2m into the garden. We hear a faint humming noise even when it is working hard, e.g. when it was -9°C in January. The neighbours do not even know that we have a heat pump. What we do...

But still but ugly.

Yes, BMW has gone really grey, bland and ugly. Sadly on both ICE and EV. Particularly bad on the 7s.

There is no way to get through to Samsung customer service or CEO...

That was my idea too. I tried to get the bracket for the bearing out by warming the plastic, drilling, breaking bits off..... But it is molded fairly hefty into the drum casing and I would have to destroy the casing quite considerably. Also the metal drum had really ground through and weakened...

Follow up to noise and vibrations on our Samsung. After I changed the bearings the stituation has not really changed and I looked at the drum again. I noticed that the back part of the outer drum which holds the bearings was the problem. The metal bracket in the centre holding the bearings was...

Hi, Just a feedback. I changed the dampers below the drum, which were leaking slightly and the drum bearings which had water ingress and the inner one was already pretty destroyed.

Thank you for the replies. Turning the drum by hand is easy without any metallic or crunching noise. It certainly does not sound or feel like a bearing problem. When the machine spins it is more like a roaring noise. I took a short video when we first noticed it becoming noisy. This is a link to...

What is this discussion on OEM parts being a problem for the insurance? OEM - Original Equipment Manufacturer. The car maker specifies and several companies make the parts accordingly. Many car makers do not make their own parts anymore but only assmble parts to make a car. These companies then...

Hello, We have a Samsung WW90J5456FC/EU W/M which is now about 4.5 years old. We used to have it running over night in a utility room a few metres away and only separated by a door from our bedroom. Recently the final spin seems to have got so noisy that it regularly wakes us up and we cannot...

You can also look at the comparisons on youtube. As long as you do not go for chinese tyres and stick with mid to premium most tyres will be fine. The differences in the "performance" are coming from the tyre's background. Some AS tyres have been developed from a summer tyre - CrossClimate -...

The sequence to omit when we set the alarm works, but I wanted to open up the technicians code side with 0 - enter -7890. Then use 10 - enter the zone to delete - enter..... but I cannot enter that for some reason.
