Change the oil and oil filter at the same time, do it once and do it right no need for two oil changes. I would also recommend using an oil flush especially on turbo powered cars.

Sounds like the flux capacitor has broke.

Its fine, thats what diesels are supposed to sound like.

That is probably oil flow related, as the oil gets warmer and flows around the engine more the noise goes away, rather than air related. Let us know the diagnosis when you have it checked out.

Rod knock, worn out bearings... Bad belt / tensioner or pulleys... Unfortunately difficult to diagnose like this will need a visit to a garage for an inspection.

The joke of this is once you isolate the vehicles high voltage system using the safety switch, the rest of the work to perform a service is the same as a normal car. Their charging extra money for a step that doesn't even take 2 minutes! You can blame the red tape health and safety mafia for this.

You need to diagnose it with a scan tool to have some sort of idea of what's going on, otherwise your piss1ng in the wind.

Get yourself a can of black plastidip, if you can pull the vents out do that and spray them. Otherwise spray in situ, wonderful stuff works a treat and reversible if you want to make it chrome again. I plastidipped a few front grills and they have lasted very well.

I use Launch diagnostic tools and their brilliant, watch out for the dodgy sellers on ebay/amazon though these guys are selling grey import models for half the price with no back up and warranty.

A 50cc scooter is no match for an Audi Q5 especially down them country lanes, you know what you should have done lad.

People who think that the middle lane of the motorway is the only lane of the motorway. People whos indicators are attached to their brakes, as soon as they decide to turn the whole world needs to stop for them. People who use their phones and miss the traffic lights, because messaging...

Take a dashcam and stick on permanent record mode.

The 2nd Generation Focus ST or RS, 2005-2010. Brilliant 2.5 5cyl turbo engine WOW its addictive to drive, I am a fan after driving one shame about the rest of the car, the ugliest Focus they ever made. After owning a collection of turbo'd Jap rust buckets, and a collection of unreliable...

The problem is people want to live beyond their means and enjoy the status of having a brand new car and are willing to pay anything for it, because in reality a lot of us can not afford to buy these vehicles outright. With depreciation so high why would you buy a new car outright anyway, it...

Again like I said before difficult subject to debate as it will always give a variable result on each application, you have to take each individual case as it is rather than one negative experience, although I agree its never going to be same as removing the inlet manifold and manually cleaning...

I was commenting and complimenting solvent based cleaners such as Terra Clean, Pro-Tec etc. Not seen the results of a hydrogen type carbon cleaner or one of these machines in action to comment about them. I can see you have thoroughly tested it out by the sounds of it, not disagreeing with you...

Very debatable subject but based on what I have seen and my personal experience in the motor trade I have to go agree that it does work and can improve MPG and performance, in cases where an engine had excessive carbon build up these type of products will dissolve and reduce the carbon. Those...

Seriously though he's right you need progressive nitrous 25hp should do you, if you want to push the boat go for 50hp for a guaranteed 5 seconds.

There was supposed to be a visual inspection for a blatant straight pipe cut and install job, but people got around that by gutting the dpf's so you cannot tell now, as it looks O.E.M The truth of the matter is the government have given up because there is no way to 100% tell if a DPF has been...

RIP. In retrospect should have just let them take the car like someone on here already said, the car can be replaced unfortunately he cannot.
