I finally managed to start my car after nearly 3 months of troubleshooting why it wouldn't fire up. After checking sensors, wiring, engine compression, and mechanical timing, I ended up checking the oil

When is a RAV4 not just a RAV4? When a Gazoo Racing Team has had it! Seriously though, those GR experts have taken this popular family SUV, and tweaked the chassis, so it handles more like its on rails

Since June 20th I have been working on my car and I still cannot get it to start. Although nobody is participating like before in Hive Motors, I keep sharing my process because I had never experienced

There's always exciting things to see at the Festival of Speed, and this year has been no different. Check this out...The Renault 5 Turbo 3E! Inspired by the 1980's Group B Rally Car - the 5 Turbo Maxi

I am continuing my efforts to figure out what the fault is that is keeping my car from starting. It has already been several weeks of testing, buying spare parts and tools, and I still haven't managed

BYD have become a well known brand here in the UK - in fact, they've outsold likes of VW to become the top selling brand of EV's here, so it seems they know a thing or two about vehicles. They certainly

It was such a treat to see the new, electrified Renault Twingo at this years' Festival of Speed! This fab little city car from Renault has been modernised to a fully electric spec, and they've done it

My efforts to finally get the car running continue. As I mentioned in previous posts, everything I've done so far has been focused on checking the wiring, inspecting sensors, and ensuring that the connections

I continue working on my Chery Arauca. It's been over a month now, and I still haven't found the reason why it won't start. However, I have made good progress, which is why today I bring you an update

Ahhh, Suzuki! As many of you know, we love Suzuki models here at Planetauto :) With that said, we were rather excited to have the latest Vitara on review earlier this year, and here it is! Join us as we

Today, I’m bringing you an update with part 2 of my work on the vehicle, following the number of error codes thrown in the last diagnostic, which you can check out in my previous post. In that post, I
