Maybe it was just that last car I had then, it did have a lot of problems which is why I only kept it for 8 month (spent a fortune on it in that time) but it really didn't like snow at all and yes it has made me a bit wiery, whereas every other year I've been the one going out in the snow doing...

Thanks t9, I was referring to old gits comment "new driver on low profiles, I'll stay at home! " I always appreciate the help I get on here which is why it's always the first place I come! I've had some great advice every time I've posted :) I do have another question though :) If I do get a...

I'm not a new driver on low profiles..... I've been driving over 12 year (been using this forum over 7 years!! and never had any problems until the last lot of snow we had, but my last car which I only kept for 8 months was terrible on snow, just don't want to be the same this year, and yes my...

Ok, might sound like a daft question... but mine that are on at the moment are 18 inch low profile parrelis, if I changed to a spare set for winter tyres, would they have to be 18 inch low profile tyres/wheels or could they be like 16 inch steels with winter tyres ??? (I hope I haven't just...

Winter tyres it will be then!! Is it worth getting a spare set of steels and swapping them like that rather than taking old tyres off and putting different ones on to swap back again? And cheers for the replies! !

Haha, ye bring it down, I'm sure there's a jubilee clip and a couple of fuses that I could sort!! Just ordered silicone pipe, will see if it looks like something I can do myself again, the tip part looks easy enough, it's the bottom part of the pipe that looks a bit more fiddly this HTML...

Haha ^^^ the joys of being brought up in a family with 3 older brothers :) think my dad just followed on with the teaching car stuff to me, wouldn't let me drive my first car until I'd changed the wheel... as "I wasn't guna be one of them women stuck on a road with a flat tyre waiting for a man...

Been back under the bonnet and found the pipe that's split, it's the top one! So I can even show them where it is. A friend of mine as told me I should order a silicone one from eBay as it will last, instead of an original one from Ford!

hi again folks, changed car and everything is great, except today, I've got that wooshing noise that comes with a split boost pipe! did the last one myself on my old mondeo but this one is totally different, I can't work out which pipe is split, just wondering if I take it to a garage, what...

Hi again guy's, im stumped!! I bought my newer car in august, mondeo tddi 2.ltr and ive sorted the split intercooler pipe, changed the cracked air intake pipe, and a few other things, but I keep having problems with the header tank! When I first got the car the header tank was full to the brim...
