I am maintaining a new car since 2004. It has covered 15700 Kms so far. It has undergone regular servicing. Many times I have experienced electrical shock whenever I open the door to exit from either front door. My other family members have not experienced the same when travelling with me or if they are the first ones to exit. Please advise.

I have decided to lease my cars. I have done the finance and for my use and situation leasing a new car every 24months is my best option.

I do however need to find a good, reputable company. While they all seem to charge about teh same I need one which I know wont vanish in a few years.

If anyone has any recommendations from personal use that would be much appreciated.

Many thanks

Im looking for engineers or someone with indepth knowledge of a car's engine. Is the guy full of BS or is this really possible? I know those fuel injection cleaners help out with mileage a little. Would pure acetone really make a difference?

There was a debatte on local radio station after a lorry driver crashed thru the central reservation on monday, closing northbound m5 for 12 hours or so - all because he was eating a salami sandwhich.

just wondered if you eat/drink when driving and do you consider yourself safe while doing so?

i had a prob with an ebay user. i bidded on his van instead of bidding on another van. i asked him nicely if he would cancel my bid but he said i'll get outbid on last day anyway. i couldnt wait to last day as i wanted to bid on another van that was ending soon but ebay wouldnt let me bid on it because my high bid on the other van i accedetly put on. he was very rude and knowing i wanted to bid on another van he wouldnt cancel my bid.

so from lots of help from you all i go by bid retracted. ever since then hes been giving me grief sending me messages quite rude and insulting. ive kindly sent him one back as a buyer and seller on cars myslf to forget about the bid and to stop sending me messages. he wont leave it and im getting constant messages from him saying hes putting a bad word around ebay for me. ive asked him where so i can defend myself and hes being childish.

i have tried not to respond to his messages but im getting really fed up and keep telling him to leave me alone

For no specific reason, I haven't gotten my driver's license yet and I'm *cringe* 19. I guess I just never really cared to - honestly. So after waiting so damn long, I'm actually ... worried lol. Is it hard to drive a car (specifically in traffic)? I always worry that the person behind me is going to rear-end me at any given time. I HAVE driven a car regardless the license, and I've found that the gas peddle is so freaking sensitive. So, for example, if ever I need to merge, I worry I'll speed up too fast and drive into the next car. Anyone have any funny stories or suggestions? Thanks!

I'm going to be buying a new set of tires soon, and want to make sure I get something with a solid reputation and build quality.

What, in your opinion, are the top 3 brands of tires in terms of overall quality? (quality being traction, durability, tread life, quiet and comfortable ride, etc.)

Also, would you suggest avoiding off-brands? What are some specific brands you would avoid?

Thank you!
