Little Confussed Over Spark Plugs I Got Today.

23 June 2012 - 07:36 PM

Hi everyone i drive a fiesta mk5 1.3i endure e engine petrol 51 plate. I got me self some spark plugs today has i am service my car next week in college. Now i had a gift voucher for halfords so i got them from there. Now i normally buy ngk ones but after giveing the sales assistant in halfords my reg number he comes back with bosch superplus spark plugs plus yttrium. Now i've been searching the web and these plugs have quite good reviews.

But i am a little confussed has these plugs look abit fancy for my little fiesta. So i have been on the halfords website typed in my reg and these plugs have come back has being ok for my car. But does anyone know what the diffrence with bosch superplus and any other spark plug? I don't want to put them in and cause damage or something.

Any help is gratefull

Hi all silly me smashed the glass out of my wing mirror the other day reverseing out of the drive way lol. Lucky anough the wing mirror stayed on the car. But the thing is i am haveing abit of trouble fitting the new glass. Now the haynes manual don't really tell me much but all it's saying is the mirror clips in place i have tryed everything but the mirror is not cliping into place. So does anyone have a idea on how this goes on. It's on a fiesta mk5 51 plate.

Thanks in advance

Peoples Reviews On A Ka.

29 September 2011 - 10:57 PM

Hi everyone i am thinking of getting a ka. I am looking at the mk1 shape at the moment i've got a fiesta mk5 on a 51 plate endure e engine 1.3i. Now i know the ka shares the same engine has my fiesta so i am wondering is there any signs to look out for on these ka i know there suffer rust around the petrol cap but the big question is are they reliable and cheap to run.

Cheers alan.

Jacking The Car Up On The Chassis

26 September 2011 - 01:04 AM

Hi i use my trolley jack for the first time today put it to it's test. So i jacked up on the chassis which what i think is the long bit of metal that runs along centre under the car.

But the thing is the saddle on the jack had abit of a claw. And it has left abit of a print on the chassis and dinted it abit not really bad like. So i am wondering will this cause any problems see pics below.

This is what i jacked it up on has i thought it was solid and safe.
