    Mexico to stop taking US currency.

    This is a copy/paste from an email sent out by my company to all it's employees. And since we are in the business of travel, it's credible. What I want to know is, are we going to continue to accept their pathetically worthless peso? Mexico to stop accepting U.S. dollars as payment Due to new...

    Snow tires or Chains??

    I will be driving up to Canada in Feb. for just a couple of weeks. I currently have chains although I'm not sure why considering I live in Austin, Texas. I was wondering if it was worth while going out and finding a cheap set of snow tires. I would hate to have to drive a thousand miles with...

I slowed down to about 10-15 MPH, not enough to splash it over the hood,(bonnet for non-Americans). As I went through it, the engine started to sputter. It idled OK but if I tried to...

    Hard powersteering

    I've been having issues with my powersteering on my 98 D1. In slow maneuvers such as parking, it seems like I have no powersteering. I have to tug at it. Does fine when I am moving at more than a fast walking pace. The dealer says there is nothing wrong with it. There's two things wrong with...

    Oil Pressure

    Got in my Rover this morning and started it up, as I do every morning that I drive it and not the bike. Only thing that I noticed different this morning, the oil light stayed on for about 5 seconds after I started the engine. I actually reached for the ignition to turn the car off when all of a...
