its dead easy, 5 bolts at the front top of the inlet and 2 at the back plus a further 4 on the coilpack itself (if you want to split the coilpack from the inlet take these off) just take your time with the bolts and dont do them up too tight, from what i have read they are a bit fragile

ah ok, typical french !

Re: Fitting shocks, should I be able to put the shock in and bolt up hub, seems too l get some weight on the hub eg your bodyweight ! it takes a bit of force to get it in position , get a mate to help if you can , they will be able to slot in in when low enough

just been out to try this morning to see anything obvious with the leads in the dark and it now won't start, i think i will begin by replacing the coilpack , the water would kill that before the leads i think

mine went through the MOT two weeks ago, the week after the MOT it was sitting not being driven, when i came to drive it last monday my exhaust started blowing and backbox had died by the end of the day - just replaced my backbox yesterday to find the center section also blowing now - got knows...

cheers JD, that was a bit i overlooked until i uploaded the pictures! I dont plan on using that Mer stuff anymore, going to give the AG SRP a try

thanks fred :)

bumping my old thread here but my next oil change is due in 1k or so and i need this sorted. Can anyone confirm 100% the thread and pitch of the OE 172 sump bung as another thread i read states it as M14 not M16 - i am struggling to source an appropriate tap (from my dads work collection) - the...

yeah, i am using some cheap stuff at the moment, whats recommended ?
