Crankcase breathers are a nifty way of venting contaminated oil and water mixture from your engine block into the atmosphere. Without a crankcase breather, this mixture is returned back to the engine directly or through the air filter and can affect the air / fuel ratio causing loss of power.
Seems not everyone is as impressed by Audi’s aggressive LED sidelights/running lights as I am.
Only last month I posted on Audi LED headlights guessing that they were set to become the next big thing in the automotive world but I completely missed Autocar.co.uk’s Deputy Editor Rory Lumsdon giving his scathing opinion on them on his blog.
Without a doubt, the first performance components usually added by anyone tuning their car for power are the air filter, exhaust system and a remap.
AmD Technik have cleverly put together a complete package of the above using the very best products in the tuning industry for the B7 chassis Audi RS4 Saloon, Avant and Cabriolet form on models made in 2006 and later.
Dodo Juice, the funkiest car wax company ever to put car care into a jar have come up trumps with their new range of hard waxes. What makes Dodo Juice so good is that they listen to their customers and when they asked for more colour-charged hard durable car wax, the guys at Dodo delivered.
Designed to compliment their existing Banana Armour hard wax, the new Blue Velvet, Hard Candy and Diamond White pick up where the soft waxes left off.
As the winter months are setting in, no-one really wants to be standing outside on a Sunday morning washing, polishing and waxing their car whilst listening to Vernon on Radio 1. Hard waxes give you the long lasting finish you need to be able to wash and dry the car, then be back indoors before the roast has even gone in the oven!
Colour charging is a new (to me anyway) concept of adding colour into the wax itself, not to stain the paintwork but to enhance it. That means regardless of whether you apply the pink Hard Candy or the Blue Velvet wax to your white or silver car, the results will be stunning.
But then, if you choose the wax more in keeping with your car’s colour the finish becomes astounding – lights are enhanced and become bright, darks become deep and glossy.
The Dodo Juice range is looking quite special at the moment and word has it they’re nowhere near finished with several new products planned for imminent launch!

It seems the Internet is full of amateur wanna-be detectives these days and a bloody good job they’re doing of it too.
After being scammed buying a faulty car from ebay, one seller put out a plea to other users asking for help identifying the whereabouts of the rogue seller going by the username of “foxecho33″ Read More…
In what can only be fathomed as a desperate PR stunt, a UK insurance company has called for a ban on in-car mobile phone usage for the under 20′s.
Obviously they’ve put a lot of time and effort into identifying that at 20 years old, a driver is now mature enough to safely use a phone with a hands free kit. Read More…
An update to the roadworks saga currently blighting Peterborough’s road networks – there is now an online petition registered at 10 Downing Street.
Whilst it’s unlikely this will have any impact what so ever, it highlights how strongly people feel against this mess Peterborough Council has left us in.
The council should thank themselves lucky though as arsonists struck only last night, setting fire to the roadworks on Oundle Road. Quite a sad state of affairs when people turn to destruction of property to get their frustration across. I don’t think it will be long before we see copycat attacks or even attacks on other motorists!
Sign the petition at http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/PboroRoadWorks/sign and lets sort something out.
