  1. That's usually a geometric effect, and you can make an RWD car understeer more than an FWD one with the same engine and gear ratios by setting the geometry that way,
  2. You mean liquids like "electricity"; like "bird nests"...? In the last 2 vehicle fires I've witnessed, one was an electrical fire in the ventilation fan controls (V**xh*11 Z@f1r@), and the other happened when a hot turbo set light to a recently built bird nest in the engine bay.
  3. I think the only way to do what you want to to buy a set of wrong hand drive headlights. Sorry.
  4. 2 degrees below freezing you mean!!
  5. I'll take it off your hands for a oner guv'.
  6. @ColinD - Wrong forum I know, but what's the state of play on stickers?
  7. No idea. I have not read the contract which you signed when/by placing the deposit.
  8. I've been actively avoiding that video precisely because of that title.
  9. Oil level is not part of the MoT. Neither is "oil consumption" unless the car makes "objectionable smoke".
  10. Don't understand; Definition of "girning".
  11. You just need one for this engine code; it doesn't have to come from a "Bohemia" edition, or even a Skoda as long as you have the Skoda badge from the existing cover.
  12. The black cap in the red circle, at least on my monitor (and apparently @Stonekeeper as well).
  13. Almost certainly. I think that the most likely cause is that the incorrect fill method documented has left you with an over-filled transmission.
  14. Also @stvan I thought that too.
  15. Worn suspension, lack of servicing, low (or high) coolant and/or oil levels... In which context the last time I saw a tyre that was through to the bands the ball joint on that front corner was totally FUBAR.
  16. I wondered, but tooth counting is the only way to prove that either way...
  17. Most people I know stop at Tebay for reasons (yes plural) other than "just refuelling". They only stop at Burton in Kendal if they are out of fuel or need a "comfort stop" right now.
  18. @Mantaraman - No idea about a removal procedure, but I think this proves that the supplying stealer is telling porkies if they're that stuck.
  19. @16csvt Did you count teeth between adjacent pulleys before and after the belt change? Have you reset the electronic fuel timing?
  20. Yes, but I don't know the answer to your original query, so didn't reply to it.
  21. I've no idea why the car would need to break; If the slope is such that you are trying to maintain constant velocity but the car is picking up speed due to gravity, then it may need to brake.
  22. Well, done, you're blocked.
  23. @titan1 The issue is that I don't know what your slab of text is supposed to say and I don't see why I should expend effort on understanding what you meant correctly and then doing you the favour of giving you a correct solution. I'd block you but 5 posts in 11 years says that's not worth the effort.
  24. @titan1 Any chance you can re-write this using actual paragraphs rather than an unreadable wall of text?
