  2. ok i have chaged it out for a new one and it has made a diffrence but hasn't completely cured the problem. one question i have is do i have to reset the ecu before it restores timing if so i'll try that. it now sounds like one of the cylinders isn't firing. so my question is that if the car has sat for a while could the coilpack have gone. it can't be the leads as they are new sames as the plugs. any help at this stage would be good thanks john i fogot to say that i can smell petrol in the exhaust

  8. just after a bit of advice on the way home today there was a bit of a bang steam up the windscreen and now coolant on the carpet, so i think the heater matrix has blown. Does this sound like the problem or could it be something else, also if i put all the controls on to cold will the car hold coolant so i can drive to get to work and get the parts at the weekend. oh and finally is it gonna be a pig to change thanks guys john
  9. yeah it's coming from behind that part but i can't determine exactly where but its definatly that part is this an easy part to replace as it looks quite buried thanks john
  10. hi guys just after a bit of help i've just noticed i have a water leak coming from just above the gearbox and next to the coilpack and at the front of the engine just wondering is this the water pump if so does it mean i have to replace or could a gasket have gone thanks john
