L322 A Couple of Things.........

Hi,

I am still working through the things I've inherited with this lovely motor and I was hoping those with previous would have some knowledge that could be imparted about the following points:


There seems to be a disk locked in the shuttle, I cannot see a way of extracting it and I am unsure if there is actually any power going to it. The head unit doesn't appear to support a CD player that I can see but it does have a tape deck hidden behind the facia which still works.

Fuses:



Electrics are definitely not my bag but the number of wires that look like they are inserted instead of fuses are concerning me somewhat. I've just noticed them when I was looking over the CD player issue above.

Air Filter:


So I have this instead of the standard filter in a plastic housing, I would like peoples thoughts on replacing stock or is it ok to keep as is? Also beneath the filter you can see a small white plug (also in adjacent picture) anyone know what that is and am I missing something?

I look forward to your help in understanding the next few jobs rectifying these

That air filter looks dirty and too small!

If it's easy i would change it back. Paper filters are about the best for keeping rubbish out of the engine.

If the cd player comes out then you can take the lid off to free the affected disc

Fit a standard filter. If that is a filter that has to be oiled, it will knacker the MAF.
