When I checked I discovered the dreaded mayonnaise on the oil filler cap and in the cooler expansion tank. I have flushed everything out and added Steel Seal for the cylinder head. But sorry to...

    Karcher died

    I remember 30 odd years ago the service engineer for our power washers saying that all these big companies B&Q, Homebase and the likes would ask if they could make a power washer for under £100. Sure if we put in this cheap part and that cheap part we could do it. That was the last of good...

    Will an AMG GTS fit in a single integral garage?

    Correct me if I am wrong and most likely am. The building regulations would have a minimum standard size for building a garage. But this would have been in 19?? when cars such as the Austin mini and Morris Minor would fit easy and with room to some maintenance in the garage. Today you would be...

    Check out what this idiot just remembered

    I would re-use them. But then I don't even have a torque wrench. Guess I'm old school. Many many years ago I did a head gasket. But going with the previous answers I guess I was lucky.

    Icarsoft MB II as an accurate diagnostic tool

    I just got roasted for insurance..big time.

    So when you buy a second car you have to start off with no claims bonus which would mean it's the car that's being insured. But if you have a bump in the second car it affects the driver of both cars. How does that work?

    Rusted brake line on ml270

    I needed two front pipes for my 05 C180. I suggested to the mechanic that he could but in a join where there was good pipe to save him strugling between the bulkhead and the engine.
