Exactly what happened to me once some years back, and I was towing a caravan!


I’m never that lucky. More likely to be “sorry sir, the warranty expired yesterday”

Don’t worry - she who shall be obeyed is already gearing up and we don’t even know what is wrong yet

Hi All

I will wrap this post up now! Thanks to all contributors - you really are a knowledgeable lot. I took the car in to Rafa’s, a fantastic garage in Benijofer this morning. 30 minutes and €25 later the car is sorted (hope I don’t jinx it). There was a small fault in the turbo which he cleared and everything seems to be back to normal, touch wood.
