    Thudding noise under the clutch ...

    Hi guys, Had a thudding noise the other day - occurred while turning (not full lock) at low speed going up a steep-ish road. Took the form of a very audible thudding (about 4 times per second) and felt like it was directly under the clutch somewhere - almost like something was turning and was...

    Engine light error code P0133 - help pls.

    Hi Guys, Took the 100 in cos had engine light trouble. They said it was a P0133 OXY code and cleared it - but said that it was due to my LPG conversion and that wasn't their business. The light was there whether running on petrol for days or LPG. Suppose I'll pop the car along to the LPG...

    This has to be the biggest lift ever on a 100!

    Look, it was dark, I was tired, I had had a long week in work and the stress had been mounting for some time... I didn't think, I just kinda acted all spontaneous - and didn't even realise I was doing it. Before I knew what was happening, I'd done it - I'd mistaken it for a 100. There, I...

    steering wheel alignment ...

    Hi, When the wheels are pointing forward, our steering wheel is rotated about 20 degrees counter closkwise fron centre. This is also its "return-to" position while driving. Its not a major prob but annoying for reaching the volume controls when motorway driving. Is this a self repair or a...

    MPG - what the ....

    Okay - thanks! I found this site too: http://www.mileagecalculator.co.uk/ but its just imperial. It does however tell me that I'm getting about 15.5 mpg around town on LPG and at less than half the cost of diesel or unleaded, that makes me smile bigtime as it equates to about 37mpg penny...

    Just googled to find liters per gallon and got: 1 US gallon = 3.7854118 litres However, my copy of "The Dangerous Book for Boys" says that there are 4.55 litres per gallon! Don't tell me that the US gallon is different to the UK gallon - and if so, when 'Yota qote mpg in their manuals...
