    Beware Looking for GlobPresto Group = Potential Car Sale Scam

    It makes my blood boil that people can setup fake companies like Globpresto Group and scam people out of their hard earned money. Hopefully people are more cautious and I hope these Globpresto scammers get everything they deserve. I've done some digging too and totally agree with you, so many...

    Best car for Towing Caravans or Trailers?

    You need something with loads of torque and something with a bit of weight, I'd say a diesel would work quite well. The Skoda Yeti is a good bet, but most exec saloons would be up to the job. Light cars would not have the power to pull, would be subject to jackknifing more easily, and would...

    Perodua Myvi sport 1.3 engine fault!!

    This can also be caused by an o2 Lambda sensor fault, it happens a lot on these when you use lower octane fuels or low grade fuels, they really need the higher octane and better quality fuels.

    Automatic Transmission - Drain or Flush when Brown?

    Always flush through IMO, it's not worth the risk. Most mechanics will just drain and refill though. Warm up the transmission before the drain and it'll flow out much better.

    Laughing gas thru the Ford Mondeo 2.0 TDCI 140hp 2009mod .?.

    It is very possible, you'll need to increase the fuelling and the easiest way is fit an injector in the air intake just after the AFM, do check it is legal to do this in your area, because often Nitrous isn't road legal. You'll also need some kind of regulator on the additional fuelling to...

    6 Speed in a corsa C??

    That sounds like a good project, but you really have your work cut out doing all of that. Mapping is the most important thing to setup and get right.
