Hi, My girlfriend has a 52 plate 1.2 ibiza but the fan belt snapped while she was driving and the head gasket has gone. I took it to a mechanic that said it could be just as easy popping another engine into it incase there are any other underlying problems but even tho we have sourced a few...

Seems like my turbo is on its way out - started making the 'police siren' noise and having searched this site that indicates that the bearings are most likely shot. It still drives well but I don't want to ignore it and wait till it breaks something else. What are my options? Where do...

My LCR seems to have Xenon bulbs fitted in the main headlamps, which are great most of the time and offer much brightness and give off a nice icy blue light. These were on the car when I bought it last month and I'm pretty sure that there hasn't been a full on headlamp conversion done...

Just had a windscreen replaced on Leon FR. There is now a gap between the front of the dashboard and the windscreen. gap is so wide you can put your hand down it. I am sure the windscreen was pretty tight to the dash before. If you are washing the windscreen you can see the inside insulating...

Looking to liven up the old Pug with a lick of paint etc, but the front wings have seen better days and showing signs of rust underneath the paint. To me it makes sense, changing the bolt on panels rather than trying to fill/repair. But are these aftermarket panels any good or are they...

Autoglass have kindly scratched 1 of the A pillar trims inside my Ibiza whilst replacing the windscreen. They have said they will replace both trims (so they match) however I would like to know if it is an easy job to change these? My concern is Autoglass will cause more damage when...
