Hi,

I don't know where to turn, but you might be able to help. I have a 2015 VW Polo bought a as an ex-hire from a VW main dealer in Dublin. Full service history etc. There was some engine noise so I brought it back in to be told that essentially the bottom half of the engine needs to be rebuilt (although by their own admission have not done any report or can give me same to confirm the position). My question is, do you know of any history of engine problems in 2015 or similar 1.0-litre Polo engines?

Many thanks

My 2014 Skoda Octavia Estate has very light steering; it feels like driving on ice and the tyre pressure is OK.

When should I change my Peugeot 5008 timing belt? It's a 2012, 1.6-litre diesel engine with 130,000km on the clock.

Hi

I drive a 2014 Mercedes E 220 model saloon and it has start-stop technology, but recently it's just switching the engine on and off at the traffic lights; it's doing this quite often so I have to turn it off. I have heating on as per usual and I have never had this problem before.

Where can I view the Volkswagen California camper?

Where/how can I find the NOx emissions on a used car?

Thanks

Can a company claim back VAT on a five-seat SUV?

With the new NOx tax on imports, will the same rebate be given on exports?

Hi,

Do you know of any insurance companies that will provide comprehensive cover for driving in Europe for more than thirty days?

Thanks

I bought a 181 Ford Fiesta 1.5 diesel and to date I have had to call the AA out three times for engine faults. Also the engine warning light comes on every few weeks, but the last time the AA came out, I was told to ignore it as they could find nothing wrong. Ford Ireland is saying they are covered because I have the free AA cover, but I have lost three days work waiting for a replacement car etc. Do you know if there have been other reports of faults in the Fiesta?
