What do I do about the warning light on my Corolla?
Hi, I have a 2004 Toyota Corolla and the engine management light keeps coming on and then going off after a few days. It could be a week or more before it comes on again. I brought it to a mechanic and he said that it was a problem with the oil pressure release valve and he flushed out the system and replaced the oil, but the light still came on. He said that he was onto Toyota and it said it was not a major problem. What do you think?

Can you recommend decent seats for my new Volkswagen Golf?
Is it possible to add an Alcantara sports seat into my new Volkswagen Golf Edition-R? If so, how much would VW charge?
Reason I'm asking is that I'm finding the "Comfort" seats quite uncomfortable and after two months on the road I still cannot find a comfortable driving position. The main issue is the side supports on the seat are too far apart. As I'm fairly thin, my back tends to move side to side a lot when turning etc. no matter what position the seat is in. It's driving me mad. My old BMW had sports seats and I never had this problem. It's detracting from what is an otherwise excellent car. I cannot find any seat cushions for my back that will help me fit more snugly. It's gotten to the point where I'm willing to shell out a few hundred if necessary to get a sports seat put in.
Any help appreciated!
