When mine ran out, as the car has been virtually faultless apart from a new condenser, I decided to get national breakdown cover with Start Rescue. They probably wouldn't be able to fix it, but at least I could get the car home and into my local garage. That was £60 and covers my son's Audi too. It ...

God only knows how insurance companies work out premiums. I was with Direct Line for 3 years and they were always the most competitive until September 18 when they suddenly upped my premium from £310 to £450 and would not budge. I then went with Esure for £380 and £55 cashback via Topcashback, which...

I stand to be corrected but I don’t recall this problem being reported on the forum on earlier cars where the useage was 1000 miles/litre. I’ve only had the dashboard warning once so far at 19500 miles about 12 months ago. I just dumped 10 litres in and the warning cleared. I did buy another 10 litr...

Many thanks Vespa

Many thanks for your replies.
No idea why, but I thought the fuel filter was somewhere under the rear seat.
All very useful information and I will order one shortly and get the job done.

Today I changed my fuel filter on my 180 diesel. After an hour of trying to suck fuel through the new filter to no avail I decided to start the engine. It fired up and cut out after 10 seconds. After I restarted the ignition I could hear the diesel being pumped through via the lift pump. After 15 s...
