    Don't think the headlight switch is a 'common' failure.

    12. Main relay - dry solder joints - can be replaced or repaired.

    13. Unlucky for some - getting to the stage of having to sell it

    I think this one counts.

    Rear brake light bulb blowing and triggering the TCS and ABS lights. Replace bulb and then no problem!

    ha ha - thought I was the only one with rattly fans!

    Mine stopped through some miracle recently

    Add to soln to REAR LIGHT CONDENSATION - silica gel behind boot trim

    15.736 - COOLANT THERMOSTAT also seems to have affected a few of us, symptom = car taking a long time to warm up.

    who can be bothered to put the list all together nice and neatly then?

    1. Internal door habdle break, - new fix it thingy from Dali fitted.
    2. Snap ring - new casing available, but I opted to fit new snap ring, from HUK (£3.50).
    3. Slow windows, - re-grease runners?
    4. pop-up head light wobble - Tighten securing nuts via wheel arch.
    5. Window regulators- plastic clip breaks - replace with Dali fixits
    6. Speaker amps break - replace capacitors
    7. Condensation in the rear light clusters - remove and drill a few small holes underneath.
    8. Crank pulley failure on early cars irrespective of mileage. Age related failure. This will become more common over time it seems. £466 HUK
    9. A/C HEATER UNIT - New caps required on pcb.
    10. N/S wheel sensor = ABS/TCS lights.
    11. O2 sensor = ECL and oftren TCS lights.
    12. TCS Light - CEL code 3-4 (VRef Signal) - This usually relates to the main relay located on the rear bulkhead (near the TCS ECU). Either resolder the joints on the circuit board of the relay or replace the relay itself. This tends to affect early model cars.
    13. Petrol Filler Flap not opening properly - Check\replace the small black (metal) spring near the hinge. Sometimes you can bend this back to make it more 'springy', P\N: 74494-SL0-000
    14. Rear brake light bulb blowing and triggering the TCS and ABS lights - Replace bulb and then no problem!
    15. Boot and engine cover gas struts that loose their effectiveness - refurb or new.
    16. That little fan in the centre console by the ash tray that gets noisy after a while - take apart and clean.
