What's in the issue

Is your cooling system ready for summer? In our July 2026 issue, we dive deep into engine cooling – covering maintenance checks, water pumps, thermostats, heat exchangers, radiators, and coolant. Plus, we clear filthy soot from our project Volvo XC90 D5 engine, fit new rear discs and pads on a Hyundai Santa Fe, and install rear dampers on a Vauxhall Corsa D. We also polish a Maserati Quattroporte’s headlights, offer expert advice on buying a solid Fiat 500, demonstrate dry ice blasting on a BMW X5, and run diagnostics on a Mercedes-Benz A-Class diesel.
