Hi Anybody got any opinions on normal unleaded or super unleaded, ie do you think you get better mileage on super or no difference. Just interested on what people think.

Not asking for help or advice just having a rant to make me feel better. My Rangie which is, or was completly unmarked has had the rear drivers side glass behind the door smashed. I assume as the council were cutting the grass yesterday it was a stone thrown up by strimmer or mower. So not only...

Hi I'am looking for suggestions, not rude ones, and not get rid of the dog.

Serpentine Belt was screaming when cold, but stopped when engine warmed up. Put new belt on today but still doing it. Nothing siezed as I checked everything when belt was off. Any suggestions?

Just started, when the car is cold and I first start it the serpentine belt screeches like a banshee, give it a minute to warm up and its as quiet as a church mouse. Does this mean it needs a new belt?
