    Lost wheel locking nut (I still have the key)-can it be replaced?

    Hi. I've just noticed that my front right tyre has lost the locking nut. The key is still in my possession as well as the code number. Is there any way I could get a replacement? Thanks.

    Which brand for replacement wipers?

    Thanks for this. Bought Bosch Super plus front both wipers (inc spoiler) for just under £9 from Eurocarparts via amazon. For some reason it's about twice as expensive direct from Eurocarparts, even though I was prepared to pick up from them! Couldn't see much info online saying the Aerotwin is...

    Which brand for replacement wipers?

    Hello all. I'm a new driver so apologies for my basic question. I need to replace my wipers and obviously I can go to my local Asda to pick up a cheap replacement but I don't know if all compatibles are the same efficiency. I don't want to skimp on quality for something so important. Can...

    Car pulling to left after bumps but wheel alignment fine

    Guys, when the road is flat, the car is fine, it is only after bumps that the wheel jumps 5 degrees anticlockwise. It's like the wheels are keeping the car straight coz they are on the road, but when the wheel gets some air the wheel moves to what it thinks is its neutral position which is 5...

    Car pulling to left after bumps but wheel alignment fine

    Well had alignment rechecked and all is fine there (well it would be because the wheel is held tight with a tool). Another mechanic did the string method around the wheels and found a gap of about 1cm. He said it's a wheel alignment issue. Had another mechanic drive around in it who said that...

    Can a full size tyre fit in the boot?

    My current continental is a 195 55 r16. The reason I picked the falken is because of this graph: http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Article/2013-Auto-Bild-All-Season-Tyre-Test.htm The falken in the above size is about £50 per tyre, and I am prepared to buy 4. The A001s are double that in the size I...

    Can a full size tyre fit in the boot?

    3 tyres are almost at legal limit so I'm looking to replace them with all-season (I'm a new driver so I need all the help I can get). I'm looking at Falken AS200. My dilemma is that the one good (front left) tyre is a Conti Premium contact 2. My question is is it safe for me to run three all...

    Problem with N16 exhaust or something else?

    Thanks all. Is that price for an original part? If not, are all manufacturers equal? If not, which should I avoid? Thanks.
