I was just looking at mrsimoto's thread about bodywork and Old Zed said something which concerned me - that the sills are different on these cars. I have put a dent in my driver's side sill due to an unseen rock and it won't pull out and is too big to fill. :cry: Can this be repaired easily and cheaply in a bodyshop? Would I be better off getting a new sill from one of the traders? Thanks

Hi :dance: I have began taking my plenum off :hurl: and I discovered that my passenger side boost hose had a black substance in it. It was thick like oil, but smelled like petrol :cry: There was not masses of it, but enough to cause me some concern. The drivers side was clear :dance: I have had a quick look and came up with PCV problems. Would this be correct?? She is at about 80, 000 miles and I doubt these have been done in the past :rolleyes: The car smokes for about ten mins on a cold startup, but this disapears as soon as shes warm and I am pretty sure there is no smoke from boost. Break the bad news gently guys, its been a bad day :cry: :…
