Hi everyone, I have a 2017 Audi A4 V6 3.0 272 that’s been coming up with an intermittent switch off engine and check coolant warning. The coolant tank when I checked it the buoy was well under the min line. It’s gone to the DSA centre in Sheffield who have investigated (£90) and said that they pressure tested and the water pump is not holding any liquid so they said it needs replacing, I also told them to put on a new auxiliary belt as a preventative thing…. they were taking the old one off anyways.

When I got the call to pick it up I started the car and the coolant light was back they topped up the coolant saying it’s an air lock after driving around 50 miles the coolant light is back intermittently and I ha checked the coolant tank and the buoy is well below the min line again.

Also they put on new brake pads and discs and since driving it the car has been making a knocking noise over bumps and when I come to a stop and have my foot on the brake there is no sound as soon as I lift my foot off the pedal the knocking noice occurs again.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated……what could be causing the coolant leak and is it on the garage for miss diagnosing and also what should I do tomorrow as I need the car for work?

Hi everyone, I’ve decided that to make a career change from a sole trader of a grocery store and get into accounting. Ive just turned 27 this month and have already completed level 2 AAT in 3 months and am now starting the Level 3 I hope to have the level 4 complete as well by the end of this year.

I’ve been hearing a lot that accounting is now cooked for people just getting into it and considering I’m already 27 I don’t know if I’m too late into this. My aim is to start chartered accounting pathway by June/July next year. My question is should I look for an entry job after finishing level 3 or should I just wait until I’ve done level 4. What are the job prospects in England. I’m from South Yorkshire and any accountants I know are in their early 20s and I already feel at a disadvantage.

I’ve been running my own store for the past 5 years but with cost of living and the way Tesco Asda etc have expanded this industry is now also coming to a halt in some sense.

Any advice would be appreciated
