While I'm in there is there anything I can replace ? Also is there anyone who knows if there is a good place to source a radiator? I'd r...

Re: Intake manifold removal
I used to get this error a lot with a heavy boot, I ended up removing the intake manifold and the intake manifold flap assemblies, stripping them down to clean the carbon sh!te off them and refitting them. I still the get the error but its now quite infrequent. I have a rook of images I could post ...

Re: Intake manifold removal
So I managed to remove the intake manifold at the weekend, wasn't too difficult and only broke a couple of brittle pipes ! I vacuum tested the lower intake manifold flaps and both sides moved the same. I expected to see one side "flutter" or close as I get an error when driving saying one side is st...

Re: Intake manifold removal
Brilliant thanks !
I was surprised to read drain coolant as a first step! Can this be done without removing all the coolant hoses ?

Rumbling when turning right
I've had a rumbling noise when turning right at in town speed. its from the rear nearside and I've been told from the garage that it isn't a wheel bearing, it goes away when applying brakes, it sounds similar to a tyre rubbing but it's not that either. Any ideas?
Thanks guys
Thanks guys

Crusty jacking points and snapped alternator belt
Hi all, Has anyone had any issues of the jacking points on their cars being really rusty? I've just had my car up on the jack to change the drive belt and it pretty much went straight through the sill. Is there a repair for this and is it an mot failure ? My car has full service history yet going th...

Re: Steering wheel buttons peeling
Ordered a used steering wheel for £75 and swapped the buttons over, hopefully I'll sell the steering wheel for a similar amount I payed !

Re: Steering wheel buttons peeling
Thanks, not too keen on the faux carbon, looks like I'll have to buy a new or used set.

Steering wheel buttons peeling
Hi,
The buttons on my steering wheel have started to peel, just wondering if there is any way to repair it instead of paying £300 for a new set of buttons.

Re: Coolant temperature sensor
I took the sensor out this evening and gave it a good clean, this seemed to work. How did you get to it....it seems to be very hard to get to, did you remove the top radiator / bonnet slam panel ? Long nose pliers and 2 screwdrivers, remove all the pugs that are in the way first and just keep tryin...
