Hello all,

Anyone got any advise on trying to claim for repairs to suspension due to potholes?

I have a mid 00's Passat that's snapped a spring. This is the third car in a row (granted, they've all been shitters) that I've had to repair suspension on.

And it's about time I tried to get the ...

Smith and who? Will have to have a listen. I find it really hard to find any good car podcasts. Maybe I should start a thread on here for Podcast suggestions and sticky it?

I have mixed feelings about the whole Electric car movement.

It seems like they are the best move from an environmental point of view (I read a report on the comparison of lifecycles of all eclectic vs; hybrid vs. ICE and Electric was the best even when including energy for creation and excluding ...

Cheers Isaac. Will give it a go. Might test two with mastic'ed faces and two without and see which one leak lol

Cheers Chris. I've heard Tiger seal is what to use, but then conflicting reports that just black sealant is fine too.
