What FAQs would we like to see here?

Postby MrChrome » Sat Dec 10, 2011 11:22 am

Ok now it's time to be creative and do stuff.

Skuzzle has already mentioned that this place needs help to build a good FAQ etc.

What I need is a list of THREE items you'd like to see in the FAQ/ Help Section.

Just three right now. If you are willing or able to write an article for inclusion, please indicate that too. These articles need not be perfect as they'll be reviewed before being added. All I need to know is what you're going to write about.

But first I need the list of articles you'd like to see. I'll start another thread about what your prepared to write in a bit.

1. Buying guide - things to look out for.
2. Cam belt change with associated ancillaries e.g. water pump, other belts, oil seals.
3. What to look at when your car seems to be overheating (seems to be a common problem, especially on Mk1).
