I think that I should start writing some guides.  How about;

-Storing oil in your trunk, almost as good as in the engine!

-How to tell if VX dealer gave you the wrong parts (hint, anything they give you!).

-How to get less than 25mpg on a tank with V6.

-How to keep hedge happy with steady diet of headlight washers.

-How to get out of Nottingham with Sat-Nav (hint, do the opposite).

-And coming soon, how well laptops burn!

 ;D ;D

I don't have a 2.2, or I might have said something useful  ;)

Well I think it's great.

Don't have a clue what I'm getting into, but step by step guide with pictures means I'll give it a go.

The missus is worried about the amount of fiddling I'm getting up to since joining the forum but A* guide.
