Common issues for newbies

Excellent idea. Was defo lacking when I joined the site, could also be used as a buyers guide to check these areas.

How about the rusty front wings?

That's a whole pain the arse right there. I will see if I can dig up the old thread that was on here about it.

Modified

Updated PCV part number
Added Air-con pressure switch

It would be cool if this thread could be moved to a more appropriate section too?

Good idea... will move it to the How to/troubleshooting area in a bit.

Excellent! Thank you

Hi mate

Missed the cam follower PN off the newbs thread and also maybe add best plugs recommended at present.

I know it's a pain in the ass but if we (you) modified the original post with the relevant links to the how to fit blah blah blah maintenance part that would be cool for people to access too

This'll be the ultimate newbs thread

That's my hope, and now that it has been moved to the How to Guides section it should help even more!

If you have the PN for the cam follower, I would much appreciate it. I can't find it.

Again, if you have any of the relevant links, send them my way. Search on this thing isn't all that great, it can be hard to find things.

Great idea alexmccabe, hopefully it will reduce the amount of daily PCV & DV threads.

Right, the cam-follower part has been added. I know nothing of the spark plugs, so if you have any recommendations that would be appreciated :)

Great Thread!!! 

[SurreyED30]

Everything you need to know here mate 

[airbagaaron]

Is there a part Number for the spark plugs or is the '8' the heat rating? 

[phatmuther]

Good thread, cheers

  Perfect! Spent ages searching all the posts for this info.
Worth adding any location pics of the parts too?
