I have this car service at the dealership, which I trust. They told me that the check engine light was from a catalytic converter fault. The light does not go off and they have told me that I need to replace the CC which will cost over $1400. What will happen if I don't get this repair done?

Can anyone please tell me what the tappet clearances are and which are the correct spark plugs (in UK) and what their gap should be on a 1996 Honda CD250 U Hornet? I know the tappet clearance for earlier models was 0.08mm but suspect it changed on the model I am interested in. Also where you obtained the info? Thanks for any help.

Hey, I'm 17 and when I'm 18 I can spend my savings account to buy a car (I'm willing to spend about £5000 on the car and £1500 on insurance £500 or whatever on road tax).
I have to have a 4x4 because we live on a farm and the driveway would be impossible for a low down car to not get stuck in, specially when it rains. Otherwise I would prefer a normall car as they're cheaper to run.
Does anyone know what would be a good first car for me? One that's maybe a 2001 model and that's relatively safe. It needs to have 4WD and as economical as 4x4s can get.
I was thinking about a Vauxhall Frontera 2.0 as the engine is quite small and that will lower my insurance fee which will be high anyway as I'm a male new driver. Is the Frontera any good? Or are there others in a similar price range and with small engines? Realiabilty and style design are also important.

Any advice will be useful thanks :)

Home AR when I had problems with it .I had one on the diver side do the same thing when I first bought it and was changing them for the first time .It broke but I got it out but the passenger side has way less room! Should I go ahead and break the plug like I did the other and try to use a back-out or just leave it in forever!!?

Does the squeaking mean my brakes are nearly shot or does it mean anything else? I have a 98 Honda Civic HX 2-door with 90,000 miles on it.

If there's nothing wrong with the squeaking is there anything I can apply or do to stop the squeaking?

Thanks.

What I do is when I'm slowing down, I clutch, then put the car in the gear I'm intending to use after I slow or stop and hold the clutch down while I'm waiting or I clutch and put the car in neutral and release the clutch until I'm ready to go. My hubby says I'm riding the clutch. Is this good or bad? I can change gears very smoothly with no problem, but he doesn't like me clutching style. I had to teach myself to drive a standard many years ago and this is only my 2nd standard car. What am I doing wrong? He's a trucker, but I know the clutching is different between an 18 wheeler and a 5 speed. Any advice from you professionals out there to help me settle this dispute and maybe save my clutch and pressure plate and tranny? I'd appreciate only mature answers and none of the I'm too old for this kind of car insults. It's just a car. I love it and don't want to tear it up. My first manual tranny was a Mustang and replaced a clutch with in 3 months. I thank you for helping. God Bless you.

Why are cars made to go faster, when we have roads that are so congested that speed is not essential? The technology is there so get rid of speed cameras, and fit devises on to cars to make them keep to the speed that they should be going. And no car will be able to go faster than 70mpm. This I am sure will save a lot of lives. By the way this includes all BIG vehicles as well. Why make cars so big? They can do it and still get a big family in them ,If cars were smaller there would be more room on the roads.

I have a M reg VW Polo....
When I brake there is a grinding noise...
Initially I thought pads but its does not grind all the time if travelling over 40mph there is no grinding. They only grind at low speeds?
