Hi,

Now I've successfully cleared my engine fault codes and the car is running sweetly, I can justify giving her a bit of a makeover.

A friend with a Bodyshop can spruce up a couple of badly touched up chips and a scraped bumper but I'm reluctant to have the original wheels refurbed when the ...

Don't want to jinx myself but I swapped the Turbo Control Valve and all the vacuum hoses today and so far I've been unable to reproduce the fault which up to now has been fairly easy to bring up.

Job wasn't difficult - parked half and half on a high kerb and TCV was easily accessible once the ...

If you believe it's not a faulty abs module causing the fault and the EGR is brand new, can you give any ...

Hi,

Quick question - I want to get the electronic module off my 2007 S40 as I suspect I've got a bad solder connection in there somewhere throwing up an intermittent ABS warning light. When I separate the electronic module and aluminium hydraulic manifold by loosening the two pump bolts that go ...
