Why did the sump plug o-ring have to be changed on the Corsa?
My mam's 2007 Opel Corsa came back from a service with the garage saying it had to replace the 'sump plug o-ring' and I am wondering what could have caused this?

Does my Ford Mondeo Estate have a timing belt?
Hi. I own a 2001 Ford Mondeo Ghia X Estate 2.0-litre petrol automatic. My question is, does my car have a timing belt or timing chain? I have owned the car for five years now and had it regularly serviced, but no one has mentioned a timing belt or that it may need replacing, so I thought I would ask you guys.

Is Volvo servicing expensive?
Hi, am I being ripped off on my Volvo servicing? I was quoted €229 for 20,000 service, €259 for 40,000 service, €360 for 60,000 service. The first is for oil, oil filter and fluid top-ups; 40,000km service includes oil, oil filter, pollen filter and fluid top-ups, plus Volvo wipers were €48. Servicing for other cars I've owned (VW, Ford and Opel) was nearly €100 cheaper. I am sorry I bought a Volvo now.
