Carly suffered from this for a long time, and nothing I did managed to solve the problem - indeed it just got gradually worse - until the whole engine was taken out, stripped, rebuilt and put back. I

There is another choice - full-fat 4 Star. There are a small number of petrol stations that retained the right to sell leaded fuel when the rest of UK went dry a few years ago. There should be one wi

I suspect that the previous default was "white". The step forward to make the gauges immediately in front of you "green" would, no doubt, have led to an all-green dashboard illumination eventually, i
