standard rear lights
To be honest when I did mine they when back together with the original sealant once it was heated and tacky, set solid once it cooled (which it does quite quickly). :)

compression test results
Not sure on the procedure for checking the fpr on a zed, some cars have a schrader valve on the injector rail you can connect a pressure gauge to (most vauxhalls have) to measure the fuel pressure.

Whats your fuel pressure like.......i had a duff fpr on a v6 calibra once and you had to turn it over quite a bit to get pressure up, changed the fpr and it would fire first flick after that.

CTS clean-up....what a difference!
Have had a couple of niggles with the old girl, so on jeffs advice I checked the connection on the coolant temp sensor (one for the ecu) and it was absolutely minging!, so cleaned the pins in the sensor back to clean metal and did the same on the connector itself and the difference is unreal!.The car is so much smoother and more responsive and running so much better :)

utterly utterly fed up
might be a daft suggestion, but are you using a good quality 6 point socket or a 12 point socket?, as 6 point ones are a lot less prone to slipping.

Autobox problem!
I bought a repair panel for the area around a Capri front suspension top and it was called an inner wing repair panel, after an mot inspector failed it on a corroded inner wing.the inner wing isnt under the wheel arch, thats just a wheel arch.just about every site and forum ive looked at calls the area in question the inner wing :). Perhaps a mechanic can tell us.

Autobox problem!
So whats it called then???, ive always called it the inner wing.

Autobox problem!
Undet the bonnet, In the engine bay, on top of the drivers side inner wing about 8cm to the left of the hicas pump and approx 20 cm back from the headlight, 3 block connectors with a loom clipped the the rear of the power steering pot, that is then clipped to the plenum. Cant get more precise without a photo!, lol ;)

Always tickles me when the small print says you arent cover against nuclear explosions............like you'd be around to worry if a 40 megaton nuke detonated on your bonnet! :)

Autobox problem!
On the drivers side inner wing,in the engine bay, to the left of the hicas pump there are three connectors for the box.

How long do you let your warm up before driving
I would say check your transmission fluid level and do a diagnostics check on the box.is your power light flashing?, if it flashes 16 times there is a fault code logged.
