A couple of days ago, my girlfriends Freelander wouldn't get into gear. Unfortunately for her this was 8.30 on a friday morning in a busy road in the middle of guildford. She says that it wouldn't get into any gear and eventually she started pumping the clutch pedal and got it into first, and...

Hi guys - anyone experienced their hill descent control and traction control light coming on randomly? I'm not sure if it's just the lights or the actual system coming on - but it's a bit disconcerting when they come on, but then they seem to go off again after a few minutes. Anybody know why...

Has anybody tried these? I bought some and just tried them out, but they don't appear to flash as brightly as the normal orange ones. Obviously I'm concerned about safety if they don't shine as brightly as orange ones - but maybe just that I bought the cheaper ones off ebay, instead of the more...
