RE: severely lacking power - any ideas

HI Steve I'm not sure if this helps, but after the car had the gearbox replaced (which IMHO disturbs alot of the engine hoses etc) I could hear a noise which sounded like escaping air - imagine putting your finger over a bike pump and then depressing the pump - like a pup pup pup sound. I could here...

I havn't checked, but I seem to recall form a good while back, that the sticker in the tyre well of your car will list all the options fitted (via codes) and will also list a specific weight for your car with its options.

worth a look?

RE: Fuel tank capacity?

IMHO the DIS always seems to start up with a lower range than when you switched off with... possibly due to high fuel consumption on cold start up.

RE: Shell drivers club / V-Power club

Scotty, I too had the same letter, dropping the discount down to 1% - tight gits.
Cashback cards used to be really good, now they are all dropping the rates.

Ditto on the traffic lights, nothing has come close to keeping up.
Am I correct in thinking that there is no law in how quick you get to the speed limit?

A bit pricy that!
I remember seeing an article on Autotrader when it was being sold last time - doesn't seem that long ago.

Is it me, or do those wheels look too dark?
