    knocking from front

    can't comment myself on the top mounts as i've not replaced them myself before. I imagine as Tekz says, it could be to do with the bearings. Then again, with ECP it could be to do with the quality of the product! I would (if I was doing it myself) choose the kit at £42.60 but as I'm not...

    Lighter socket not deep enough

    I've got a garmin too - the lighter adapter for the garmin isn't that clever in my opinion - it falls out of the 09 plate Punto I have too. The way I get round it in the Puma is to wedge the plug by closing the tray, that way the lighter adapter is wedged and wont move. But yes, I agree with...

    lumpy steering wheel?

    Mine had this when I bought it. As strange as it was, I used some window cleaning wipes all over the steering wheel and left it to dry. It was a little tacky after wiping but ever since has remained nice and smooth with no breaks/tears etc. I think something slightly alcohol based will remove...

    BBC to drop F1

    Great disappointment. Think this will push a lot of keen F1 fans to stream the coverage rather than pay for Sky Sports....

    Coolant colour

    My coolant is florescent pink, so I shouldn't be too worried - you'll probably find they've just used a different brand

    98 r puma rear lights misting

    You may find it quicker and cheaper to get a new unit from ebay. When I bought my puma it had a hole in the cover like someone had hit it with a golf ball. I managed to pick up a replacement for £8.00 on there. Obviously most of them are auctions so it does take a bit of patience to watch them...

    Engine bay colour?

    That's the same colour mine is - and I've got a moondust too. Having said that yours looks cleaner than mine :P

    HOW TO: Change the Rocker Cover Gasket

    Very good guide indeed - thanks Steve! Accomplished this today! What I'd add to it is, if the 4mm Allen bolt has a rounded head then a T27 Torx bit can be tapped into it and used to undo the bolt. Oh, and that the gasket sealant bit is a messy job haha :wink:

    rounded allen key bolts on engine cover

    Funnily enough, this happened to me today. Wanted to change the rocker gasket. As Yippie says really. The allen is 4mm, I knocked in a T27 star bit to mine and that did the job. Don't try and put it back in though - if it's just the one, it should be ok without it providing you get another one...
