Thanks very much everyone will have my first go at it tomorrow (should be fun lol)
What should i look for when checking the spark plugs, black brown is that a bad sign?
Its really easy ????? lol It doesn't look it. I'm off to see Dan on the 6th April but thought i'd crack on with this myself...... maybe not. I really am crap with stuff like this. You want a house re-wired thats easy but this is in a world of its own haha
Hi, i have searched and don't seem to be able to find exactly what i'm looking for.

Mine is exactly the same pal, its in garage getting sorted as we speak. I have to go on tuesday to get my cat checked for a blockage, so will repost when i know as sounds like the same problem
yeah stretched tyres will def pass mot, not illegal just most legit Tyre places don't like doing it usually. Not worth it tho mate IMO cos you can get a blow out a lot easier than with standard set up
lol rear shock thats what she said, it was leaking. Danpl6 said that fan fault wouldn't cause any spluttering so its either coilpack (aftermarket form eurocarparts) thats faulty or coolant temp sensor. Is there a way of testing coilpack or coolant temp sensor without buying new as ive done it...
Had an MOT done this morning and failed:(. Diagnostics showed up one fault ''High speed Fan'', could this cause spluttering/a kind of limp mode as its part of the engine management??
Also need new track rod ends, are they expensive? can they cause serious damage if left too long?
Rear...
I tried cleaning mine first, but a week later started running rough again so changed it n it went back to running ok. Not sure about sanding it, im sure u would just do more damage than good, but im no expert.
Will do Kelv, will post it up his afternoon. I think it may be a knock sensor fault. Going for Mot tomorrow so will get a diagnostic done see if anything comes up.
