Gearbox Oil Change?
Quite a task matey,you would need extensive pullers,circlip pliers of varying sizes etc.not an easy job im afraid.

Increasing airflow to the intake
Tbh you wont really notice a difference.The fmic will allow air flow anyway so i wouldnt worry about it.I had a vented nose panel and tired of it,smooth is where its at and i have to say i have not noticed any difference in cars running temps.

Gearbox Oil Change?
THe chances of the oil level causing just 2nd gear to grind is remote to say the least.A syncro in a gearbox which is what is used to slow the gear down to allow engagement is designed to disperse oil,so a lack of it wont be a problem.Its probaly the syncro tbh.

ECU throwing up error code 53
plug the faulty sensor into the known good side,iirc it does reach just about.if the fault shows on the opposite side you know its the sensor.Fit an oem sensor and not an e bay one cus they are rubbish.The drivers side is plugged in on the side of the plenum on the tin bracket,the passenger is plugged in usually at the rear of the plenum on a bracket behind the black balance bar that straddles the plenum.The sensors have three wires at the plug so that narrows it down.A red wire,a black one and a white wire should be present.hth.

Mini one
They are great cars and pretty reliable.They can suffer with gearbox problems in the earlier models.They can be a little thirsty as has already been said also,the parts prices are shocking tbh Bri,i knew someone who had a mini one and the rear section of the exhaust rotted out and Mini wanted £350 for the part,thats the rear section not the whole system :ohmy: But id say buy away mate they are not nailed together like Austins effort.

Rubbish cars?!?!
yeah those ****s,they forgot that the metal in there bike was mined by machines with engines and the rubber in the tyres was shipped over by a boat with a huge oil burning engine and the ****ers dont work and think anyone with money is spoon fed and should spread their wealth to subsidise them.We got loads in Bristol.The great unwashed i call em.

Pentproof manifolds - help
IIrc kits were available years ago for those,Youll have to get the garage to get some pipes and hoses.Speak to AnthonyD on here for the hoses and get a stainless steel exhaust place to make the pipes.You could first make them out of plastic pipe to get the angles right then use them for patterns.Sounds like the garage isnt really trying to hard to get the work done though. And get them to heatwrap those manifolds too.

Serious tyre wear please help !!!
Id say get another garage to check tracking and the problem you have is usually sagging front springs causing a lot of negative camber.A proper check should prove this.

1st gear jump
Ive had quite a few dealings with pk6 boxes in lagunas and master vans,basically the syncro has gone mate or a bearing has let go causing excessive endfloat.The box is quite a fiddle to get out.You have to lower the crossmember the steering rack sits on really to get it out.The pk6 is quite a weak box and well known for failure.The newer pf6 box is better but still has its problems.The box is easy to strip too.
