Update for today decied to have a bash at changing fuel filter was gonna take it to garage but thought well "how hard can it be" as it turned out not very hard at all to 30seconds to remove old filter, then 20seconds to put new filter in, then 10 mins swearing at the car cos i had but the lid on the wrong way and was a real pain to get back off lol after i got it off took 2 mins to find the right way and get it on and sorted, also had a look at lowering rear and i have run in to the same problem as i did with the 106 the off set washer is stuck (not gave up yet will have another go another day) then decied to sort my boot catch out as it only had one screw holding it in screwed the other 2 screws in, then put the cover back on (about 10 screws) shut the boot and it wouldn't open
so ended up laid in the boot removing the cover and opening the boot from the inside, after i got the boot open i took the boot catch off turned out there is a screw snapped of in the boot catch so as i screwed the screw in it just pushed the catch away...... any way all sorted now...... and finaly deiced to put engine cover back on thats been sat on table in house for last month lol heres couple of pics
Old and new filter looks like old filter not been changed in a very long time
