Cheers I have had a quick look today, I found a small heat shield broken from the manifold so I'm guessing this maybe causing the starter to get too hot. I will replace this and test it, if it still occurs I will go for the repair kit. Thanks

Have not tried towing with the electrics unplugged. I am going to take a look at it over the next few days so will update if I find anything. Think it must be heat related as mentioned,I may go for a new starter if everything looks ok and see if that cures it. Thanks

Hi Quite hard to hear but from what you have said it sounds like it could be a relay causing the noise, which would also make sense with the noise coming from around the fuse box area.

Hi, Where abouts is it leaking into the car? I had a leak from my rear sunroof that was dripping in from the sunroof handle. I lowered the headlining slightly around the rear sunroof and found both drain tubes had moved and were running higher over the headlining than what they should have...

Have seen a few dual mass flywheels that when knackered leak fluid which could be causing the clutch slip, this should be fairly obvious though as it usually sprays the fluid/grease all around the bell housing

Hi I would connect a voltmeter to the battery, first with the car not running and you should be getting 12v or around that figure. Then start the car and then check the battery and you should be getting around 13-14v if the battery is charging. This will just confirm if you are getting charge...

Hi, Bad news on MOT but it isn't really too bad, fairly simple repairs and relatively cheap especially if you can do the work yourself. As for the hoses, I would go for the kit you have added a link to. As you say you might aswell replace them for the extended version as you have a lift kit...

Hi, I have a similar problem and i found the rear shock absorber bush worn, if you get somebody to push up and down on the rear bumper and watch the top bushes on the rear shocks you will see some movement in the bushes if they are worn.

Hi I think its normal to get some oil in the hose as iv seen it loads of times. Id say the best thing to do is clean it off and see how long it takes to re-appear. If it appears quickly i would say its possibly a turbo issue, somebody may correct me on this though
