    ABS warning light nightmare!

    Hi guys! So today my Puma wouldn't start (It's a 1998 1.7). The AA guy came out and after about 30 minutes of tinkering figured out the fuel pump fuse had blown.

    mot fail brake hose twisted???

    Hi guys! quick question, my car failed it's mot on a cv joint gaiter (which is fair enough because I had a look and there is cv fluid everywhere) and they said the nearside rear brake hose is twisted and needs bleeding and untwisting etc. They quoted £140 for the jobs. It's not my usual garage...

When I really put my foot down in 2nd gear it starts slipping and I get that lovely burning smell (it's only happened twice so far), but I wanna get it replaced soon. I was wondering what clutch to get? If I just go...
