moving

Hi, Recently bought a 55plate A170 Automatic, lovely car, however, there is 2 distinct seperate noise/vibration issues, which I wonder if anyone can shed any light on. The first, when moving off, you can feel a slight vibration and noise which disappears once above 10mph say. The vibration...

Heart ruling over head, we've decided to take our 1996 W124 RHD cabriolet to Spain for a few years, so we'll have to go through the re-registration process in due course. We've owned it for years and of course it's fully VAT paid, so I don't think we'll have to pay any major import taxes etc...

I have a 2003 SL350 with 19" AMG style rims. The tyres are curently 235-35-19 but I'm looking to move up to a larger profile as the 35's are just too low and uncomfortable for some of the roads I travel. Can anyone advise as to what profile I can move up too or tyre size to go with? I'm thinking...

I took the W211 in to the dealer for some routine warranty work on Monday under my Service Contract. When it went in, the service indicator stated 2,800 miles to go for a Service D. Now I have it back, the service indicator states 8,800 miles to go for a Service C. I know they updated some...

I have been trying to unlock my 2005 E350's COMAND to enable viewing DVD while the car is moving but no avail. The DVD in my COMAND only works when the speed is below I think 5-10mph. I understand there is a way to unlock the DVD to play even at higher speed (it is for the passenger to th...

I have discovered that our Miele washing machine is pretty heavy. It was delivered about 18 months ago and installed by the delivery chaps - but I now need to move it. It is sitting on a lino floor and under a work top. When I try and move it it is impossible to lift the rear feet (it is only...

I have been mulling over this for some time! Any comments, advice, facts, lies, untruths and just plan sillyness, please feel free to add below. Thanks:D

I have just bought the OH a Samsung NC10 to replace her clunky old Laptop. Is there a way to move her old emails from the old Laptop to the new one. Both machines are running Outlook. Thanks! Max

I did my usual thing and bid on something on eBay without thinking... Now I have a 274kg safe sitting on my driveway where my car should be... Any ideas on how to move it? I can barely lift a side with a crowbar; so I was thinking of putting some wooden poles under and rolling it... for...

Parked car on a 10-20 degree slope this morning on virgin snow, nose tight to kerbstones. Came back 4 hours later and car was 3ft from the kerb. Tread marks in front of the rear wheels were perfectly smooth where the car had slid down. (Yes the handbrake was on and the car was in park). My...

Hello, I left the car for nearly a week on the scottish cold weather and when I started all was OK, but after about 8 mile, all warm up, when I pressed on the pedal, the rev went up to 4000 and the car nearly stayed at the same speed, like if the clutch wasn't gripping. I parked it, started...

Over the past few months i made a lot of big decisions. I have left a career job and have decided to leave Leeds and move back in with the folks in West-Mids, and to be nearer to my GF. Also i am undecided yet about whether to sell/rent the house i currently pay a mortgage on. Living on myself...

Hi Folks, I have been having a tidy up and don't have anywhere to put all my CD's now (other than in the loft) where I won't be able to play them... I'm looking at getting a large (external) hard drive so I can put all of them on (over 300 CD's) so I can play if I wish. I was thinking of a...

I like to have a good window shop around Pistonheads and have noticed that the number of classifieds rose from around 47,000 ads to 54,400 - but the odd thing - it hasn't moved from 54,400 for ages either - coincidence/software or a barometer of the times?

Hi guys, I never been selling such expensive car before (bought it from Merc Dartford). I live in Harrow on the Hill now but am going to move to central London in next few months. Is there 'normal' car dealers who can sell car for decent price and not trying to screw you? It has full...
