levels

Hello folks, I'm going 'home' in June for a walk down memory lane in my Uni town and home town in Illinois in a month or so. Tonight I've been trying to check the legal drink driving level in my home state, but I'm confused. The Illinois level is 0.08%. The U.K. level speaks of microgrammes...

Is it just me ? I'm fed up reading about stella mpg and minuscule co2 emissions on hybrid exec cars, which attract all the relevant benefits of low emission vehicles including full tax allowances for businesses that buy them and low benefit in kind for employees that run them. And yet "real...

Having now discovered that the engine oil dipstick is at the rear of the engine after me thinking that it was for the auto/MCT box I am having difficulty working out what is the correct way of checking. There are three little plastic type markers on the dipstick and I'm assuming that the level...

Dear All, I understand that ATF levels in automatic gearboxes are important and that they should be measured with the engine running and at particular temperatures. I also understand that accurate temperature readings can be obtained using the Star equipment. I was wondering if there was "a...

Over the last few days, i have been stripping my old 'street machine' (A 1987 Skoda Rapid, dont laugh, i loved that car) from many years ago as i have finally decided to get rid.... Anyhow, i removed all the 'valuable' stuff for resale to other Skoda owners and today as i was 'sorting' the bits...

Hi, Does anybody out there know if MAF sensor can affect emission levels on a diesel Thanks:mad::confused:

Hi, does anyone know why there is a level for cold ATF (10-20mm) and a level for hot ATF (54-64mm)? Does the ATF expand when it gets heated or is there another explanation? The reason I ask is that I drained my gearbox and torque converter when they were hot. I measured the amount of hot oil...

Hi guys, This looks like a great forum! I have a question about my first Mercedes, a 2000 model C320 which I have had for 1 week. Today I took it out for its first long motorway trip and after about 40 miles, a warning message came up about the oil level being too high. I immediately...
