Assume you are talking just engine bay......coolant check, brake fluid check, all hoses and pipes check.

Plus of course check brake disks and pads, all suspension joints, gearbox and diff oil levels, check tyres, lights, etc etc

And also on a 12,000 interval drop exhaust & grease BOTH propshaft uj's, and for those of you blessed with a rotrex, change the traction oil & filter !!hehe

ETA seem to remember diff oil change at 12,000 as well ??

Yes Anthony I did mean just the engine bay and as I'm driving it through winter I regularly get the wheels off to clean chassis etc, so tend to check all those things as a matter of course.
Yep I've got all that on my list Richard.,

Seems like a doddle now with no disi, etc. Cheers

Disi cap, rotor arm,,, coil, stepper,, well that's not on any list but probably a good idea to clean it,
Ignition module, most leave that I know but it's when rather than if it's going to fail!
So not much really but not having to faff about with disi caps that don't fit well, Blar Blar,,

I'm sure your car Anthony with after market Ecu would be pushing 330 + Bhp so that itself is rather useful.
