I revently bought a used T reg vauxhall astra 1.8L auto from an independant garage. I have approx 2 weeks of my 30 day warranty left. Its had problems from day one. The ECU light for starters wont go away. Its been connected to a diagnostic machine and the fault came up as a oxygen sensor which was replaced. No other faults show up but the light persists. Also, i feel the car is underperforming for a 1.8. I cant afford to keep taking it back to the garage as it costs £15 in fuel for a return trip plus eats up a whole day. I've been twice but to no avail. I think im being fobbed off till the warranty expires. Can i demand a refund? Its not fit for purpose, and was faulty from when it was sold. Also having heater & alarm problems. Im generally unhappy with my purchase. I want to see what options are to me available before i start shouting the odds at the garage. My preference would be to get a refund.

I just moved back to my home state where you are required to have both a front and back license plate. Neither my previous state nor the state where I bought my vehicle from required a front plate so there is not plastic mount or anything already in place.

In order to get my car inspected here I have to have a front plate, and need to figure out how to set it up on a car that appears to have never had a front plate, preferably without having to drill in to the plastic of the bumper.

Thanks!

My 04 Corrolla squeals right after I start it. After being warm or driving for a while, it goes away completely. Is this something to worry about? Close to 28K miles.

Hello, I only have 1 question. I own a 1998 Ford Crown Victoria. Im interested in getting 20 inch rims off the net. I know the bolt pattern for these rims is 5x4.5 or 5x114.3 which is the same for my car but I'm not sure about the offset which is +30? Will the +30 offset tuck the rims neatly inside the fenders or will they be sticking out the side of the fenders giving it a ridiculous look?

the old welding materials would often crack once cooled. these new rods are supposed to be of a softer metal, making the welding of auto heads easier for most welders to use.

I want to purchase a used car and think that I would save money if I buy from an individual seller instead of a dealership. Will most banks allow this.
