Hi, I had a ‘failure to proceed’ as some describe it last week where the car lost most of its oil… I think I have identified that the bolt that should act as the blank for use when using the locking tool(?) for the bottom pulley up behind the driveshaft bracket has come out. It’s the hole 90’...

Just had a Jetex system put on this morning (middle and rear sections) and just picked car up - all seemed fine until about 5 miles in and now it's misfiring/backfiring and feels like it's running on 3 cylinders... Car was fine before the exhaust - can something have been dislodged or...

So I think I made a mistake by the offer of extra Nectar Card points if you had a service and MOT done by your local Ford dealer.... Just been to collect my Puma after dropping off this morning at Evans Halshaw in Lincoln after looking at a few of the other local garages and deciding their...

I've had a look through the list of garages but nothing closer to Lincoln than Hull, Leicester or Hull and don't really want to have to 'kill' a day wandering round one of those waiting for the car. Does anyone know any garages in or near Lincoln to recommend (either that or Skegness/Spilsby as...

Finally got my Puma taxed and back on the road today after being SORN since March but it appears to have developed an oddity... Every couple of times you start the car the dash seems to reset (needles going all the way round and trip resetting to zero etc) but doesn't do it every time, battery...

I've slowly been cleaning up my Puma and 'claying' most of it and have noticed a couple of odd things with the paint finish inside the door closure areas from below the door catch to the bottom of the curve/sill - the finish on both sides isn't gloss/polished feeling like the rest of the car and...

I have an old Renualt 5 GTS that is a bit of a project to get back up and running properly - it is MOT'd and solid but I'm in need of some bits of exterior plastic trim and really a replacement drivers seat. A very long shot but does anyone know any one/where that might have bits - have tried...

Selling my Mitsubishi Colt CZC due to job change and increased mileage each week and the need to get the Puma back on the road... Mitsubishi Colt CZC2 2007/57 plate, Metallic Blue, 2 owners from new, 34,000 miles, full dealer service history. 1.5 16v - nice and lively and averages mid 40s MPG...

Really need some advice on the best way to get the engine bay of my Puma which from the looks of it hasn't been cleaned since it left the factory in 2001.... I've heard bad things about trying steam cleaning and don't want to risk water in electrics (had enough of that owning an Alfa...). What...

Hi, got a very tatty standard back box at the moment which although isn't blowing yet it can't be far off (all the outer skin has come away..). I've had a trawl through on here and seems theres a lot of support for either the Piper or Milltech ones - i've found these two on Ebay and wonder if...

Just bought my Puma to replace another car that I used for my previous job and now don't need one to put loads of miles on. I'm currently selling but still using the other car but and the Puma is locked away in a garage but still taxed (garage I bought it from had 6 months on it). IIRC do you...

Hi, Just bought my second Puma after a break of 6 years as a cheap(ish) runabout after being made redundant and now doing a job with much less milage - as I remembered what fun it was with the last one. Got a 2001/Y 1.7 Black with the leather bits. Quick question for anyone who can help -...
