Is there any place where I could do an online order of a PCV repair kit for a 98 model T5? Oil trap, inlet manifold gasket and hoses as required.

Any time smile

If it's an ME7 (no throttle cable) you can do it without removing the inlet manifold wink

It's not, so pretty much everything must off, then again I'm spared from ETM faults biggrin

being a 2003, mine is also spared the marelli pos throttle although that's not to say the Bosch ones don't fail. mine lasted 208k before it scrapped out. luckily, the Bosch ones are plug n play.

don't fancy having an idle control valve tho wink

I very specifically looked for a -98 model fixed roof c70, to avoid the ETM issues up to -02 models, which is when the fixed roof model was killed off. Can't win them all though, now I've got to pull half the engine apart to sort the PCV... frown
