    Juddering Wipers

    Not familiar with them, but do they release if you push them in simultaneously? Sometimes, these things get a bit jammed up. Give it a good wiggle!

    What Was Your CB Radio "Handle"?

    In my 20, there weren't many people with CB. Now, I gotta go, I've got some 10-17 to attend to. A 10-81 for a weekend break. No, I know nothing about CB.

    Archev's adventures in the Berlingo

    I think the regular Mk I van had a silver chrome grille all over, whereas that camper has the middle bit blacked out, like the Mexico or RS 2000 grille. The early Mk II had FORD in chrome letters in the middle of a black grille. Later ones had the blue oval. Headlights, AFAIR, were round for...

    So count me in for the 12 volt discharged battery problem

    I must admit, I'm very suspicious of any product that has no markings. And the 12V battery in my 23 plate (c/w rear wiper) has no markings! But, it has lasted 2 years so far, including 3 weeks away in NZ. When we got back, it fired up just fine.

We got the Honda brand new but it had been hanging around in the dealer network and the OEM battery was goosed. We found out after sitting in it a couple of...

    Charging MG Or Other PHEV And Other Q's

    Just been reading a road test by Which? where they say the manufacturer's figure for the outgoing Sportage PHEV is 252mpg and the EV only range is 43 miles.

    Charging MG Or Other PHEV And Other Q's

    Things have all changed re the Sportage as there is an MY26 model out now and the PHEV has not made the line up as of yet. Only the regular hybrid has been launched. Re the front end, I think I prefer the outgoing model.
