Yes well done, everyone has to pay for an mot so its a loss everyone has to make once a year as little over that as possible is a good thing when you have a 4 week old son. I'm sorry but if you want to point out the obvious so will I. End of.

Chill out m8 i get the feeling he was joking
Fitted a new Front N/S wheel bearing, heard it all week, check it a couple days ago and was still in a solid state, drove it into the workshop today and it was ready to fall out... Was actually shocked! Also I hate the ABS ring, gets in the way to grind off the inner race on the hub.
from my RR
got these
and fitted them, this was in bright daylight though
but the number plate leds seem to get very very hot so i dont think i will be keeping them i for long
and today i spotted the very rare Ferrari 500
finally had spare time today and replaced the timing chain tensioner.
started off taking the battery out before doing any work.
unplug all coilpacks, wires and timing belt cover. I made sure where the coilpack and plugs where.
then removed all 9 (10m) bolts on rocker cover.
once that's done should be able to remove the rocker cover and should look like this
remove the black plastic covers
underneath the rocker cover my was full of oil
gave it a clean and is alot better now
removed Cam Sensor, can't remember i think they where still 10m bolts.
Used 19m 12 point socket on crank to positon timing marks
Mark the timing chain. Clean the cam chain of oil where the timing marks are.
Count out 16 rollers between the timing marks. Recount 16 rollers. Use liquid paper and mark the cams and chain at both the intake and exhaust side.
Using your T-30 socket, remove bearing caps 3 and 5 on intake side and then remove all remaining caps and bolts showed in red.
Now you are able to take the cams and while doing that take out the tensioner, take your time.
once remove will look like this
also the red area make sure that's all clean ready for half moon and tensioner and apply sealant on half moon and tensioner.
Here's new part already with tensioner tool installed.
now installed with cam all bolts in, didn't take pic while bolting the cam. Make sure you apply sealant where the red arrows are.
double check the timing are correct and count 16 on the rollers, i had to do this a few times.
once your happy with that, clean the surface for rocker cover gasket and then install rocker cover, bolt up bolts and install coilpacks, cam sensor etc...
I did change my oil aswel and oil filter, i would advise to do this.
BEFORE STARTING YOUR ENGINE PLEASE LEAVE 30MINS AFTER INSTALLING CAMS.
I did also have another problem with the car running rich and not boosting correctly so check all hose's and made sure all bolted up.
started engine all working fine now, no ticking noise once warmed up, at last.
if you do copy what I've done i do not hold responsible for any problems.
But the downside is the car is still running rich and not boosting correctly.
I think i might have to put the old map sensor on to see if that's the problem.
