    Heater o rings now changed..

    I must be very fortunate as my o ring change went without any hitches :5bparty: Took me about 6 hours in total,over 2 days. My best tip to anyone else doing this job is do not drain all the coolant out,unless its due a change. I had fresh antifreeze in mine so i didnt want to loose it ;) All i...

    Maintenance can be a bad thing !!

    The reason i ask about the battery is that on range.net walk through,they say that the srs/air bag multi plug has to be disconnected. And i didnt want to risk getting a face full of air bag :D But if you havent had any probs twice now,i presume i should be free from a dentist trip :D

    Maintenance can be a bad thing !!

    So the silicone sealant is off the list now :D Apart from the dreaded screw on the matrix/o ring clamp, the job looks fiddly but fairly straight forward with the information on here. Trouble is ive got big hands and rheumatoid arthritis,so i have to work fast before my hand/fingers swell up...

    Heated seat probs

    Sandyt. If you do take out the thermostat altogether from the system,then make sure to check the seat for heat within a minute or so as it will get well hot quickly if my seat back is anything to go by ! After a couple minutes it started to smell and was well hot to the touch :eek: If you type...
