Watch this video and Ross will show you where to find the spare wheel in a Citroen C5.

Upgrade NiCd to NiMH Battery Pack Easily Yourself

Driveway Dudes Paul shows you how you can easily upgrade your old NiCd battery pack to a NiMH battery pack cheaply and easily.

For under €5 you can do it yourself.

Paul removes an old NiCd memory pack and replaces it with a memory free pack.

The old pack was 9.2V 700mAh and the new is 9.2V 2600mAh.
NiMH batteries don't take the load as well as NiCd and are said to drain twice as quick so 2600mAh would realistically convert to 1300mAh which is still almost twice that of the old pack.

Being memory free, the NiMH pack can be charged as often as you wish.

Think safety when using tools.
Make sure you have the correct charger for NiMH. Some NiCd chargers will but not all can charge NiMH safely.
NiCd are not environment friendly and are considered toxic. Please dispose of your old batteries as per your local Laws.

Which is Best? Part 2: Water, Water or Water to Clean a Wheel?

In the episode of Driveway Dudes due to popular demand from our viewers, Paul, Ross and Will (kind of scientifically, but not really) test if you can really clean a wheel without any soap or wheel cleaners.

We carried out three methods of cleaning the wheel:
1. The stiff bristle brush from the first video and a bucket of plain water.
2. A hose with normal tap pressure.
3. A 1600W Power Washer with 90-100 Bar or pressure.

Just like our first "Which is Best?" wheel cleaning video we used another one of Paul's BMW alloys with up to 15 years of accumulated brake dust, dirt, road tar and wheel weight glue.

This is a home experiment designed to fulfil the requests of our viewers.

Paul, Ross and Will did their best to mask the wheel into three sections. Paul, Ross and Will tried as close as possible, to spend the same amount of time cleaning with each method.

Paul, Ross and Will chose a day with the best possible conditions to carry out DIY cleaning and avoided direct sunlight where possible.
