Thanks for everyone's help!
Most of that looks a bit too difficult for me to do, all I've managed so far is to change a bulb in my dash, I think I'll be able to manage sorting out the cracking sound on the passenger door using the how to - I may even try a coolant flush but still cannot find the radiator tap :-?

Don't suppose there'll be any more cambelt parties?
or rocker cover gasket parties?
or coolant flush parties?
or wishbone change parties?

Cheers!
Spend £3 on Robin Hood's cambelt DVD, then see if you think you can do it ;)

For someone who needs to get the Haynes out to top up the oil - I think I'd struggle   ;D

Maybe, but for sake of £3....   ....I know it sounds scary, but it really isn't that hard.  And it would give you more confidence on doing other stuff on the engine ;)

Great :y

Even if you still decide that you need help with it, the DVD hopefully will give you confidence to do other jobs under the bonnet ;)
