Guys need help. Had to replace the bolt on the back of the diff that holds the manifold downpipe, can't seem to find a replacement online. Can someone point me in the right direction please?

Finished putting the new oil in... Realised it generally helps if you put the sump bung back in beforehand.... :/

Not done it with oil but I have done it with coolant. My dad and I ended up getting his car back from a garage in parts. As we never disassembled it, we never thought that we may have to but a drain plug back in the radiator.

Yes indeed!!! Just done a fifty mile round to parents house through the new forest some A/B roads and a bit of Motorway. Considering my Mini is still running in and needs a RR session, I was well happy with the way she drove :)

Sounds great, I'm always living life on the edge when driving around no working fuel gauge or temperature so both are quite useful. Been an expensive month so hope to get both fixed soon. Engine sounds good plenty of poke unsure if still the original 998 but much better with new plugs in last weekend.
