To find out what has caused the fault the car will need to be plugged into the appropriate computer (could well be an OBD2 port). Find a Ford indy and ask them to plug it in it will be cheaper. But personally first I would just keep driving the car and see if it comes back. Could be a...

I use an easi-bleed kit from halfords. (about £5) Very simple just a one way valve on a bit of pipe into a bottle. Connect to the appropriate bleed nipple (oo-er) and start pumping. When the liquid is coming through with no air move on. Best to bleed the one further from the master...

Easy. Probably: Remove wheel. Remove calipers (generally 2 bolts). Don't let the caliper dangle by the brake line though tie it up. Unclip old pads and push caliper rod back in (you can get tools to do it easily for £15 but you are bound to have something lying around the garage to do...

Thats brilliant guys. Thanks for all your help. I have no doubt I will be back for loads of advice. After doing the re-wire the next project is to build a garage (doing that myself though)

Does the cable them travel horizontally between each socket? This is a complete newbie question I realise so be gentle :oops:

I know some of the ground floor is suspended but not sure if all of it is. The other thing is the kitchen has lovely tiled floor and I really don't want to rip it up if I can get away without doing it. Will have to speak to the electrician about how much of the floor to get up. Thanks

Hi, I am in the process of buying a 100 year old house that is in need of a re-wire. I should have an overlap period of about a month between giving up my rented accommodation and moving in to this house so it seems sensible to get the re-wire done while the house is empty. Now I am not...
