Squeaky, as John says, some of these mobile car repair guys are good at hiding all sorts of sins, beware, some dont last for ever, they are good if you are selling or moving a car on. When i worked for BMW i observed these guys working on some of our used forecourt vehicles with perticular...

I work for a bodyshop and we have just been put on a 4 day week, the outlook aint good fella. :shock:

John, open the rear engine cover and the pull handle for the front is on the right hand side looking rear to front .................. if i remember rightly. :? We had a couple of these in at our workshop for bodywork, cant say i like 'em though! :shock: First time i saw one i was worried...

I have bald patches along with some areas of white grass, now i've seen adverts on tv showing products that can be sprinkled onto the lawn rejuvinating them in days. Is it that simple or do i have to do something more drastic?

Will give it a go John, thanks. As for my security, again i will have to wait till my boy comes round one day, he set this pc up for me but his knowledge is limited.

Thanks for you're input John, my PC is about 3yrs old, as for memory, i will have to get my boy to look into that one. Some one at work suggested cleaning up registry, i thought this would be done when i use Advanced System Care 4 every so often. :?

Apologies for bringing an old post to life, but i need advice, computers and me being middle aged dont gel very well. I've had Norton installed for the last 2yrs and really would like to get rid and download maybe Avast for free, can some one give me an idiots guide how to do this please...

Or worse case scenario John the pads could be down to the metal wear indicator rubbing on the disc. My Saab pads have a small metal tab that comes into contact with the disc when they are wearing thin and makes a screeching noise, why that dont have a wire to illuminate a warning on the dash i...

Most i've seen in our body shop are bolted from underneath, only smaller lip spoilers are usually bonded/glued on. There are the exeption where some are bonded and bolted.

Thankyou, well i've had a quick look underneath and its all dry!! Daughter done another wash last night and no leak! Looks like we've just got to keep our eye open and have a look the minute it starts to leak again. :?

Frantic call from Daughter last night, her 3yr old Servis Washing Machine was leaking water, i cant get over there till later today so, is this a common fault on this machine and what do i look out for? She also said there is a small door front bottom right of machine with a plastic part...

MG/Rover head gaskets are a well known issue. :wink: Regarding the Saab, have a looksee here; http://www.uksaabs.co.uk/UKS/search.php?keywords=central+locking&terms=all&author=&fid%5B%5D=2&sc=1&sf=all&sk=t&sd=d&sr=posts&st=0&ch=300&t=0&submit=Search

Anyone remember the early V4 engines in Fords? :)

Please excuse my ignorance, but are you saying connect the Nautral and Live but dont conect the Earth, just bend it back and tape it up??

I've just bought a security light to install on the side of the house, it states to use two core neutral/live wire, why does it not state 3 core which will include an earth? I'm only guessing its because the unit is made entirely of plastic. I want to use 1mm 2core from lamp, down to ground...

The later engines were GM sorced yes, i'm unsure about alternator replacement but removing wheel and wheelarch liner springs to mind, also tensioner needs pushed to one side and locked in place with a steel pin of some discription to aid belt removal. Also seem to remember alternator needs...

I know its a late reply but, the reason for the sump drop John is the pcv/vac hoses perish/degrade on these Saab 9-5s and leave deposits in the sump clogging up the strainer, now we all know turbo's need a healthy supply of oil, but if the strainer is blocked it aint gonna happen. Ask me how...

Cheers guys, i'll pass the info on and its down to him then. :D

Thanks for your help, looks like he will need to make a trip to the scrap yard.

A very good link that ub7rm. :wink: Works in the same way my acid wash used to work.
