Re: Stickies for fuel consumption

They told me last time my car was in that my brakes would need replacing for next mot. When i stripped the rear ones down you could tell they were sticking on. All it needed was a good clean up a large hammer and some WD40 and some grease on the the moveable parts and its been great ever since

Re: Stickies for fuel consumption

Well since I freed my binding brakes my mpg has gone back up. I was down to 33 but back up to 36 37. My Mrs's Laguna only gets 37 and its a 2.0 turbo diesel. Think her brakes may be binding on too, however its a company skip so hopefully they will change the car for her!!!

Re: petrol cap won't open...help please?

Oh hell, I had one that didnt lock before and it required a dealer to replace the whole unit. (Under warranty)

Contact your dealer if its under 3 years old, they should sort it out.

Re: Good brand of brake pads??

Been a week with my new Apec pads now. After a disaster with bleeding the brakes and needing my brother to bleed them again with his flushing bleeder kit, all seems ok. The brakes have beded in well and have made a vast improvement. Apec seem to be a good quailty replacment to the OE ones
