    Rich, go and disconnect both leads off the battery and measure the voltage across the terminals and monitor it for 3 minutes. This is to check whether the battery is serviceable. 13.1V is a good sign but you do need to monitor it for voltage drop over time. Set the multimeter to 20V range to get a more accurate reading. Post up the initial reading and the reading after 2-3 minutes

    Tony, is there a video of the machine you use?

    No worries Rich, post up the results when you can.

    Disconnect the battery and measure the voltage. set the multimeter to volts D.C. should see a reading of at least 12V. leave the multimeter connected for 3 minutes and monitor the voltage. What do you get? Reconnect the battery to the car, leave the ignition off, and once again check the voltage over 3 minutes. should once again see a reading of at least 12V. There may be a very small drop in voltage over time, i.e start at 12.7V then 12.65. What do you get? Start the engine and once again measure and monitor the voltage across the battery. If you got say 12.7V engine off you should see a reading of at least 13.7V. i.e at least 1 Volt more. What do you get? I'm off to the gym now, post up your results and I'll help where I can. Richie

    Looking after the customer's needs are paramount if a company wants to succeed. Are GAZ shocks re-buildable, do they need regular maintenance?

    I used to drive an old MK 1 golf that didn't have power steering, that had awesome steering feed back you could instantly tell you were pushing things! Don't know why people want massive wheels - cookie cutters

    Sorry to hear that your having car problems. My megane decided it wanted to kill a coil pack on saturday, it just died at a set of traffic lights. A quick fix though! And there's Tony going on about how fascinating electricity is in another thread - Shocking

    What car was the guy driving? I can't believe someone would think that tyre was repairable! Do you get lots of 'possible horrors', so that you end up having to photograph all of them, then choosing the worst? Richie
