I left mine in pieces in the rush to get down the fire station :roll:

Had to put it all away when I got back in the dark.

Otherwise it looks fine so I can't really fault the Chinese part copiers I guess, but they need to work on their print skills.

I know it's hard to remember where the lock is these vans, had to climb out the window the other day cause I couldn't find the lock button...... Silly me if I had switched engine off I could have pressed the key button.....

I bought one of those window breaker hammers with the pointy ends, better safe than sorry.

Searched for the oil filter housing I put somewhere safe, and eventually gave up and ordered a new one off TPUK :?

Treated the engine to a poor mans engine flush, quick blast down the motorway and back then changed the oil and filter.
The old stuff wasn't too bad, only done 2000 miles.
The tappety noise at high speeds has now disappeared.
