Morning all.

I've recently bought a standard S1 and have suffered a suspected thermostat failure.
The job doesn't seem technically difficult, but bloody awkward!

Talking to a guy at work, he made some trestles to rest his car on whilst he worked on it. Has anyone done the same, or do you all use axle stands?

Cheers

Ian

I'm not 100% sure, so I've bought new sensors to swap at the same time.
Annoyingly, I didn't buy a new housing and the plastic inserts are just spinning so I can't get the old one out!

Now waiting for a replacement... :-/
