A small list of problems

Post by David_Aston »

ok I will start with an easy one.....

I lost my user manual in a house move and I cant work out how to remove the rear tail lights to change a bulb.

The next one aint so easy I recently split the main coolent pipe and the engine over heated, I had it fixed (ouch not cheap) and now my heater has given up the ghost, it has blown hot air on sharp bends but thats it any ideas on clearing it???

Cheers

To replace bulbs you need to remove the lamp if I remember right. You do that from inside the boot. Just peel back the carpet.
For your heater you need to bleed the air out of the system. Check out

The bulbs... if yours is an early rev like mine, you need to do use a flat screwdriver or similar to (carefully!) pry out the orange bit furthest round the sides, that sticks out a little bit. Under there is a screw you'l need to remove to get the whole light cluster out, which will then allow you to remove the bulbs.
