as far as i know this car has never had any egine work done apart from i had the cam belt changed just after i broyght it even tho the history said it wasnt due for another 20000 miles.
just been on to the garage i get my mot's from and they said i can take it over and put it on a ramp so i can have a much better look from underneath.

yeah we had her in bits last week to change cam cover gaskets as i was told it was them leaking .
then took intake out to check oil cooler unions . all dry.
could it be a cracked oil cooler pipe .( just thought of that ).

hi there . i got a 2.5 estate and i change the tyres from 225 65 16 to 195 65 16 no probs.
in fact i think it drives better. no road noise. easyer to drive in snow.

but thats from driving on motorway.
