| Looking at preventing rather then cure, how much would a mechanic roughly charge to change to silicone hoses ? Thanks |

| I guess that’s why mechanic are always saying drive it like you stole it, and brake hard so as to keep the rear discs working. No just driving gently. |

| Yes that was interesting, what a big job. I can imagine that is a big bill for a normal punter. |

| Our little patch of grass was burned brown in the summer and now is looking quite lush and green. Nature is amazing the way it recovers, and that is just the rainfall no watering. |

| If I was to have one of those 20 amp power socket put in the boot would it need a new larger cable run from the battery and what sort of money would it cost to get fitted. Cheers thanks. |
