Cos people are googling for all the threads on how to fix stuff and coming across these old threads, I reckon.

How come we're having all these random thread revivals?
But they're random replies, even for the C5 forum.
speaking of random, I think I'll have chicken for my dinner :thumbs:

You can change the bulbs on axel stands but a four post lift is easier. The OS manifold will need to come off so that'll be 1 in 2 studs snapped off. Probably best taking the engine out come to think of it.

Someone should go through the workshop manual and count how many jobs state 'engine removal' to compete.
No matter where you go, there you are.
