my na manual guzzles fuel ???
pull out your spare wheel and undo the fuel pump cover 4 screws you can check the pipes to see if any leak at least from there while engine is running and off as there will be pressure in the system, wont show all the fuel lines but at least it will be there checked also under the plate where it bolts to the fuel tank is a large rubber O ring is possible this has split or been poorly fitted

that rust does not look to bad you might get away with cleaning with a wire wheel and then using a rust treatment on it if the hole is deep would need welding as within 20 cm of suspension point

My cars lost boost Help!
you said you have a hiss on the N/S front being a tt you will most likely have two intercoolers on either side of the front bumper check the pipes by unbolting the mud shield if you have them only the front would be needed to be loosened, also remove the headlamp panel between the lights check the intercooler pipes under there as well sounds like you might have a split pipe or clamp loose blowing the pipe off this wont help on the problem but will show you where intercoolers are

usually alarms are connected to the starter circuit, door locking, fuel relay and igniton circuit later 2 not allways standered some times optional extra if it keeps packing up after it starts to warm up might well be PTU series 1 is a alumium ribbed block with 2 connetors 1 either side on the unit looking at front of the engine will be on your left on the front of the cambelt cover just behind the water pipe

MOT time, shocks, tyres & a sheared wheel lug :(
use a proper spring compressor for definate dont cheat not worth the risk adjustable shocks for fine tuning to your comfort and your personal preferance on road holding new dust covers dont come with shocks but you can buy them might be able to get them from demontweeks risks from botched spring compressor least painfull brusies to loss of fingers or other parts of the body but mostly likely hospital job if goes wrong DEF DO NOT RECOMMEND
