Hello, I have a SAAB 1.9TTiD 2010 (59 PLATE) I bought the car privately and have a full service history, but I suspect it has been mapped at some stage, as in the 18 months that I have owned it, it has not done a DPF regen, admittedly for the first 12 months I was doing high milage on the...

My air conditioning is playing up a little. It stopped a few weeks back and a local aircon place was extremely helpful - checked gas, fine, and narrowed it down to a dodgy connection on the silver relay in the relay box next to the battery. (Iverson Tyres, W4, incidentally) It worked again...

Hi For about 2yrs, I have a 2008 1.9ttid Aero and now need to replace the current tyres. When I went to my local tyre place, they pointed out that it has run flats on 18" which they say neither are the standard. Info on the web also say 17" wheels, has the car got the wrong wheels on? And what...

Hi All, I have a bog standard radio cassette in my 97R 2.3lpt Anniversary - no CD changer and amp under the seat. I wonder if it is possible to play my Ipod through it. Would prefer a hard wired solution that will also charge the Ipod, rather than something that fits into the cassette deck, if...

I went out this weekend in my newly aquired aero 03 estate for the first time. The car felt more solid on the road than I expected, having read a few posts regarding the suspension being a weak link and being slightly soft. I have had a look at the shocks and they have got Bilsten on them, are...

Hello, I have lost my keys and my car is in reverse. It's a standard transmission. I had it towed to my neighbor's driveway, but the driver could only take it back so far.

I replaced the springs on my 93ss Aero with Eibach ones and have the ones I removed for sale. The Front springs have only covered 7000miles and the rears 26000 miles. The guy at Elkparts suggested £100 for the set but I think £70 is more realistic. I will ship in the Eibach packaging at...

Hi, A quick introduction for myself as well as a question. I work for Total Vauxhall magazine, and my staff car is a mid-engined Vauxhall nova; last time it was on the rolling road, it made 457bhp, although since then, I've remapped it with more boost and its undoubtedly safe to say it was...
