Re: 406 2.1 16v td loads of smoke and noises
Sounds to me like the engine is FCUK'd. The easiest idea to come up with is that the turbo has blown which would explain the smoke out the back and the engines appitite for oil. I know that BMW have a big problem with some 320d turbo's which do the above, eat all the oil and then destroy the engine....

Re: 406 HDI (90HP) 2001 STARTING FAULT...HELP!
Sounds like a typical crankshaft postion sensor problem to me, over the years the heat damages the covering and when the engine gets hot the sensor malfunctions and your car won't start. Fiats also suffer badly from this as I had it on my Marea diesel. Give it a shot, it's a cheap bit and prob would...

Re: Number plates what is the law!!!!!!!!!!!
The regs governing the spacing of lettering are as followed 2001 onwards - Group 1 letters 11mm and Group 2 13mm depending on which system is used. Pre 2001 - 11mm Problem is that it's seen as picking on the innocent motorist again. The public don't see that those types of plates are used to get awa...

Re: Oh noes - a tyre choice thread!
I've got Falken 512 Ziex's all round on my V6 and I have a spirited drive to work every day. Can't fault them....the grip in the dry and wet is rally good and so far they look to be hard wearing. Cost about £220 for the set fitted.
