Re: Tappet Rattle - a dummy run.

You need to take the timing belt off to remove the camshafts to get to the hla’s. You also need to take the crank pulley off to get the belt covers off and to set the timing back up. Also you need the cam covers off to get to the cam wheels.

Early cars have a fob, later cars have the temic system with a chip in the key.

Re: Locks, ignition barrels and immobilisers....

The key fob from the states may be for the remote locking which is not fitted to UK cars. They didn’t have the Bosch immobiliser.
