Well. When I say it can. It does on mine. Some older models, various options are not accessible.

Yours is 03 though iirc. Same as mine?

Visually checking the scars of war on TBE after its week away, looks like the front bumper needs respraying yet again. *sigh*

Caught on a few of the speed bumps, and coming off the ferry.


Other checks I need to do when I have the space (don't want to do car work in the road - my neighbours put up with enough inconvenience at the moment) are replace droplinks (knocking noise coming from drivers side, sounds like droplink), check/tighten exhaust (got a metallic rattle behind bumper), and look for a LPG leak (can occasionally get a whiff of it), maybe damaged poly on all those French speedbumps?

Poly pipe would have to be hanging down unless you've got a huge great dent in the floor?

I need to look under, but I'm expecting some battlescars.

Last time the pipe blew clean out of the evap was after catching the car's belly.

Worked for a few hours on the brother's Elite DTI estate, have got to replace top injector seals due to air leak, just at the stage of taking the cam shaft out with engine fully locked up with locking kit. But have to start another 72 hour week in the morning so on hold for the next few days. Have cleaned all carbon off inlet manifold and butterfly ready for refit. :D

Filled it with my son & all his gear from uni. I could have done with an estate.

You cna do them without fully removing the cam, just by loosening the caps.

Fabricated a pickup wheel onto a type 1 aircooled hitler engine front pulley to support a mega jolt install.
