Ronypony, Sorry mate should have added this to the previous message. The plugs, when I took them out weren't in bad nick at all. Surprising really, seen as 90% of its travelling time is less than 5 miles a day! They were sooted up but not too badly and normally I would have just cleaned them...

Hi All, Just to let you know that when the local garage collected the car it never let them down once - this after it's been misfiring all week! Anyway, he's given it a cursory check over and is having it back in next Monday to give it the full diagnostic treatment so we'll see what happens...

Hi Extreme, Thanks for the reply. The answer to your question is that no I haven't, never thought of that but I will mention it at the garage tomorrow. I just hope it's something straightforward and not too expensive! It's only done 58,000 and apart from that it runs a treat even though I...

Hummingbird & Dadba, Thanks fellas - have put the trim back on for the time being. Will probably have another go next week -weather permitting - and will get a photo of the pin then. Will also check the other wings whilst I'm at it.. This is the first sign of rust I've seen and it doesn't...

Discovered some rust bubbles on the front wing today just above the plastic wheel arch trim. 98 Maverick GLS SWB 2.4petrol. Had some difficulty getting the trim off and snapped a couple of the plastic securing pins that hold the trim to the wing. Anyone know exactly how these should be removed...
