    At what mileage will a timing chain wear out?

    cool, if uk mot works like irish nct then engine warning light doesnt influence the road safety of the car (could be many hundreds of possible issues, they cant fail you on that), if it was an airbag light/ABS brake light on the other hand -- failed. sorry but no noise from the chain doesnt...

    Almera radio controls button not working

    you could remove the circuit board and solder in new switches, the parts are probably 50c each. check connectors also make sure its old dead switch before replacing them. WD40 is not going to do anything good here! if you wan to clean the circuit board use isopropyl/acetone somehting pure that...

    R10tz0r thanks man for filming that! what a shame at the end though, coilpack and water leak.. did you have to strip everything back to the waterpump to fix the seal? u think the coilpack was ok before you started, might have dropped it? or was it shot all along?

    At what mileage will a timing chain wear out?

    its a shame its not easier to change, its enough for a lot of ppl not to bother it seems. but you still don't know exactly whats wrong with your car - you could be assuming its the chain when a couple of 20£ sensors could be to blame (notorious for going bad). either open it and check, or spend...

    At what mileage will a timing chain wear out?

    its not a mileage based thing, its supposed to last the life of the car. doesnt mean it will, running it low on oil will stretch the chain fast apparently another likely option is just the cam/crankshaft sensors. THE FIRST thing to do is to scan the codes and se what that light means - check...
