Issues with car security
More of a guideline really, anything related to the security system of the car will be moderated off of the board. This is a free to all forum and as such can be viewed by anyone and everyone - Sadly this includes car thieves.
Suggested strategy
If you have a security related issue, i would suggest PM'ing a moderator, or someone who regularly posts good advice on here. Likewise, if you receive such a PM, can you try to make sure the sender is genuine before replying.

Hi James,
I totally understand. I have just posted regarding this exact issue. Who would be a good person to talk to or best place to take our car for a prof to look at? Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Karl

Karl, unless you take it to a garage or car security firm you may get your answers at your local meeting, there are a few in the Midlands you can look them up in the relevant sections.

Hi,
Can anyone help me?
My MGF bonnet won't open. I think the cable has snapped. It means I can't get in to charge my battery and I need to go shopping.
Regards,
Helena

What happens when you pull the bonnet release? Does it move and nothing happen or is the lever stiff?

Hi and welcome to the forum
You can charge the battery by connecting the charger to the positive of the starter or the alternator and the earth to the body of the car.
