My Insignia's stop-start system is faulty.
I have a 2015 Insignia 1.6 CDTi Ecoflex. The stop-start system only works when the battery is charged manually and then stops after a few days. New battery fitted by dealer six months ago.

Does my Hyundai i40 have a timing belt?
Recently purchased a 2012 Hyundai i40 CRDi 136 and trying to find out when the timing belt has to be changed. According to a main dealer the car only ever came with a chain. Any information would be great.

Where to fit my toll tag?
I have a Vauxhall/Opel Corsa and I just got a toll tag, but I'm not sure where I can place it on my windscreen where it will work properly. The guidance is to place it behind the rear view mirror in the shaded/dotted area, but I have an an athermic windscreen, which also has a panel behind the rear view mirror with a camera/sensor in it, so there isn't any space directly behind the mirror. There also isn't any shaded or dotted area anywhere on the windscreen.
Any ideas of where to put it?
Thanks
