    Auto gearbox

    I wouldn't even go down the full drain route as it could upset the gearbox, had a couple of volvo geartronics in the past and it wasn't recommended to do a full replacement, plus it was much more problematic at the same time. As F6HAD pointed out, much better for the gearbox to do a partial...

    Honda Accord mk 8 type s idtec rear wheel bearing

    Did mine a while ago and the first two I got off ebay were wrong even though the part number matched and it said it would fit my vehicle. I ended up getting one from Autodoc. As you look down on it where the 4 bolts go in does it have a bump on two sides between the bolt holes?

    Air continuously getting in brake line

    Must be the calliper, did you check the seal was fitted the right way around

    Air continuously getting in brake line

    Maybe get someone to apply the brake while you look for a leak, should leak under pressure and then draw air in when released. Possibly a brake pipe or line or calliper connection.

    Clips / Rivets

    Get searching on ebay, you can usually find what you need if you persevere. I've spent hours looking for stuff like this, often it's all about the wording.

    MOT Crap

    I agree, I do it myself if I'm interested in a vehicle. But some of these things seem a tad petty: Offside Rear coil spring corroded (2.4.C.1b) exhaust system slightly corroded + flexi mesh damaged Nearside Rear Brake pipe slightly corroded (3.6.B.2c) Offside Rear Brake pipe slightly corroded...

    MOT Crap

    Not just that though, it can affect the sale price at the end of the day, people see these advisories and it puts them off, lowers the price.

    MOT Crap

    Had my yearly MOT done last week, car passed with no advisory's even though it was the same garage that last year flagged up rust on a rear subframe. Had this before, some garages will pick the smallest faults, it is utterly ridiculous the amount of advisories at the hands of the testers. Like a...

    Suspension bushes

    Had front upper suspension arm flagged at mot couple of years ago, found it easier to replace whole part than change the bushes in it, cheaper too. ***** of a job though, bolts are really hard to access. MOT is January, so did it in the cold. Don't have a garage so wouldn't want to do it this...
