If all goes well with work hopefully I'll be there. 
Is there any tools or equipment anyone wants me to bring. I have almost everything you would need to work on an omega inc locking kit, large torque wrench for wheel bearings, camber gauge etc. 
Let me know and I'll see what I can do

When I said camber gauge its only a magnetic one that goes on the disc ect. I was thinking more along the line of using it to replicate camber settings if anyone done shocks or lower arms ect.

We use it on the tracking gauges at work so I suppose if we could sort out a metal plate / length of steel that will sit across the face of the wheel it could be used to get the camber pretty close.

do you have climate control or standard heating controls?
Also have you or anyone else had the plenum off recently or had the vac pipes removed and replaced?

If they have been fitted incorrectly then you won't get any heat or little heat into the cabin, which sounds like whats happened. There is a how 2 on here somewhere to show how they go on.
Here we go look here this will show you the correct fitting for the vac pipes
