    Fitting a CAI

    Treat myself to an induction kit and currently waiting on its arrival, I ordered a CAI kit at the same time (as an open filter in a hot engine bay is never a good idea) http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/260978980280?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 So anyway it arrived this morning...

    Where should the engine temp gague rest when car reachs correct temperture ?

    My temp sits at the same place as on the pic, gets there in between 5-10 minutes And as mentioned the 6th gen's fuel economy is poor at best, especially the 2 litre My idle sits slightly lower than in the pic at the mark below 1k

    Cd cassette removal

    It should pop out when you press the button unless it is either jammed or has no power to it, as far as I know if they're is defo power to it and it wont eject the cassette you can manually remove the cassette. I did on a Alpine one however I had to partially take it apart

    wheel bearing/front spring help.. 2002 1.8 vtec sport model

    As far as I know, yes you can change just the bearing on the front, its the rear that comes as a whole hub I would leave it to a garage as I would imagine the bearing would need to be pressed out, same with the spring, unless you are competent and have spring compressors :) Hope this helps
