Passed a mondy this afternoon that was parked in a town dual carriageway
type of road and the sort of place/location where cars dont park .

The back right wheel looked like a morris minor front wheel when a
kingpin packed up .

Was too busy looking at the wheel to notice the reg - and while i'm no
mondeo expert - going by the shape and rear light cluster it probably
wasnt more than a couple of years old - so its unlikely to be rust .

So , What part of the suspension became loose or whatever ? .

Took my Kia to a Nationwide Autocentre last October because there was
a serious shake when braking. They told me that the front disks were
warped and worn down, so changed them and the brake pads.

Seemed OK for a few weeks but then the problem returned. Took it back
to Nationwide and they couldnt find what the problem was and suggested
taking it to the Kia dealer.

Today, the Kia dealer have told me that it needs new disks and pads on
the front !!! Disks apprently are nadly scored and pads are down to
2mm. I told them that they had just been changed a few months ago.
Anyway, they reckon they HAVENT been changed.

Spoke to Nationwide and they say they were DEFINITELY CHANGED. Who do
I believe?

Just wondering - is it possible that theres another, more serious,
problem which is knackering both the disks and pads and that both
garages are telling the truth? Is it possible that the disks/pads
fitted were faulty?

Nationwide are looking at it again next week and say that the disks/
pads will be changed under warranty if they do need doing again.

Where can I find a list of editions of the Highway Code?

I am mainly interested in the dates of the last four editions.

---------

The following is all I can find.

http://www.dsa.gov.uk/Category.asp?cat=345 says the sixth edition was in
1968.

http://www.tsoshop.co.uk/bookstore.asp?DI=582744 says the latest is Sep
2007 and also there was a major revision in 1999.

Worth watching IMO.

I went through quite a few holding tools in the car. They only lasted
a year or so each. Then I spent more and I've still got it. It's so
old, I can't even remember where I bought it.
