Hi there, up until about a week ago I used my CD player (factory fitted CCR-600 with 4 CD changer) without any problems what so ever. Then I intermittently started getting the sound (only when playing CDs) cutting out from the front passenger door speaker. This didn't matter whether or...

Hi Spark - I'll get another bulb at the weekend and see what happens there. Hi Andy - Yep, all lights seem ok. Brake, fog, side, main and spots etc.

Hi Spark, I think so yes. I went to Halfords and the chap there asked me about my car and then handed me the bulb which I then put in. Am I best getting another one of the same to ensure that they are both identical? Cameron

Hi there, I've got an old (M reg) but very reliable Laguna. However, I do regular trips to Suffolk from Manchester and during my last 2 trips I have noticed the following: I feel almost every bump in the road, however small. The road noise seems louder. The tyres are new and are...

Hi guys, thanks for your help. Here is what I've done so far: Drained the radiator and blasted a jetwash the wrong way round and blasted a load of rubbish out. I then refilled the system up and and now the heating is working a treat. However, (there's always one isn't there!?!) the...

Hello everyone, My daughter has had a 'T' reg Punto now for a few years and hasn't had any trouble with it at all until late last week. Basically the heater doesn't appear to be working. Her commute to college is approx 7 miles and she said that normally by approx the 2 mile mark the car is...
