Yes seriously it's really easy.
The guide just makes it look complicated.
Take of the air filter elbow, Iirc there's about 4 clips to undo. Two on the throttle body(one is under the elbow), one on the bottom right side of the engine, one on the left, there's a pipe on the back pull it out...

its really easy, unclip a few clip, undo a few bolts and off manifold comes.
I've only used the tripple by hand so far and it brought up a nice shine. Going to give it a whirl on the da tomorrow. I'll just tripple then wax and give the black hole a miss.
This.
I rang up about the catch on my derv as its rusted pretty bad. They tell me it's been done and it £59 if its the bottom part and £89 if its both. Fixed prices apparently.
It's not been serviced for 36k lol. Which is the whole time the scrud owned it. Full service history upto then including a cambelt change.
A good service is on my list of things to do.
Bit of both really. It was left idling for a fair while so I think that's what eaten the diesel. Since I've filled up the mpg is already above 52mpg so hopefully it will just keep going up and up and it mostly just sits on the motorway between 65-70.
So first tank of diesel used. Slightly disappointed with the figures tbh
Overall still nearly double what I was getting from The Cup so I can't be too disappointed I guess.
Had to top up with oil a couple of times since I brought it home. Think I'll do an oil and filter change and assess...
