AFAIK the light is irelevant last MOT my pads were very worn all round so when pressing the brake peddle the light would come on, however test of press on resivoir didn't, as enough fluid had returned, I got an advisory for it, can't remember exact wording but something like brake fluid drops below min level.

prob worth saying how to do it

293 miles
29L = 6.37911

293/6.37911 =45.93 mpg

Nope

Still looks like witchcraft to me

For quick reckoning at the pump.
293 miles
29litres = 10miles/litre (approx)

4.54 litres=1 gallon

Therefore 10miles per litre = 45.4miles per gallon.

I'll take your word for it

Sums are horrid, so I ignore them. :yuck:

It passed the MOT without it being mentioned so it must be fine :slayer:

Hi guys,

Can someone tell me if this battery is any good for my Punto?

http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/..._productId_734795_langId_-1_categoryId_165762

My battery dies after about 3 days not driving :bang:
Mechanic told me to get one that is larger then the one I currently have (The form factory is tiny).

 

[ChrisUK]

That's a good plan but you need to make sure you can get it strapped down so it can't move or it's an MOT fail.

That 'looks' like the right battery.

 

[Focus Owner]

made a box for what looked like the same battery other day, go to your local welders im sure they will do one cheap for you

 

[dave]

dont buy from halfords http://www.performancebatteries.co.uk/ will have same battery for half the price.

i always get hgt 1.8 battery for puntos with a smaller engine

That explains it! I'm not sure I like it tbh.
ben Can we have an option to choose our own font?

Dom

 

[ben]

Not sure I totally like it either, but it's better than before - the old font was outdated and too wide...

 

[dave]

its harder to read with oldman eyes

 

[Eklipze3k]

I find it quite hard to differentiate between bold/standard text

 

[dombooth]

Test1
Test2

Edit: yeah it's not that easy is it.

Yeah, that was my concern too. I had to increase the size on the front page to compensate.
