    Test drove a '19 GT-R and Signature today

    Thanks for the videos. I would just love that engine, but would of thought it should have twin turbos same as the diesel I have. Unfortunately Mazda's push upmarket isn't convincing enough for me, I really don't like the tablet type 7" screen, for me it should be bigger and built in. Audi Q3...

    Noises and squeaks

    That's what happened with the Mk1, lots of squeaks and rattles, vibrating mirrors and hoods, see all the TSB's for them. No rattles etc on my 3 year old 2015 car. I did have one, it was a pen in the centre console.

    No buy a Tig with the items as standard. You pay extra for options.

    Test drove a '19 GT-R and Signature today

    I believe modern cars with turbos no longer require a cool down period, I don't with my diesel, and I do know my last Xtrail had a pump that would run after shut down to cool the turbo. Last time i cooled a turbo was in 1999 with a 1.8T audi.

    US Diesel's big splash introduction

    There's recently been a lot of recalls for various issues, Brake vacuum pump checks, some needed changing, injector seals to check, and a few others, my 2015 car just had a PCM reflash, something about preventing the engine stalling. do your self a favour and by the 2.5T instead.

    To be honest I don't hear any more quality of sound between FM or DAB, I do use DAB at home mainly to listen to magic or smooth.

    I find the FM is 100% reliable for reception, while DAB is a waste of time constantly retuning. If I get fed up with radio I have options of CD, BT, or USB. And yes I don't mind watching black and white TV, that's all we had when I was a kid. You forget its b/w if its a good film.

    Some cameras interfere with the dab signal, try removing the power from the camera to check . I prefer FM anyway.

    2017+ CX-5 Moose Test

    Skinny tyres are better in snow, 225 is enough, Xtrail was great all round with 215 especially in snow. And skinny tyres create less road noise, I noticed that when I tested the Tiguan, one version on 245 was a lot noisier than the 235 I've opted for (235/50/19)

    It may be normal on a 2018 car, but its the first I've read of it. How will more revs clean injectors?

    I would reject the car immediately.
