Glyn isn't jesting for once, it's a push fit.

<t>That's a bummer Tom, especially as any assessor is likely to declare repairs to your car a non cost effective in their ignorance.<br/> Unfortunately too many people don't 'do lanes' at roundabouts - first one there hogs it and wanders all over the shop and if you are driving a van well, enough sa...

All that time and money and the front end looks like it's had an argument with a garden fence - and lost!

I emailed Johno but I gather you've been in touch anyway. Hope he can sort you out.

<t>Front wing is 2 bolts accessed from inside the wing.<br/> Rear wing is two bolts, one inside the wheel arch the other you need to remove the rear 'door' card.<br/> The door trims have a screw at each end. A post end is under a trim cap, the other end is inside the door below the lock mechanism. T...

Hasn't he previously said that he can't get on flikr at work as it's blocked. I expect that's the problem.

<t>You could try drilling a small hole, not deep, at the edge and then try inserting a small screwdriver/chisel at an angle and tapping at it with a hammer. however, my experience of these bolts is that they are quite tight so drilling them out might be necessary. start with a small drill and wok up...

What's that then, something's not happened to Major Tom has it?

On a fairly standard 2.0. but it was nearly 300 miles at 80/85 a good part of the way but it does look as though it's still running a bit rich. http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1215460338.JPG Strangely on long runs at speed oil consumption seems better than the local mileage that she usually does,...
