very easy to do right so I don't know why anyone wouldn't just slacken 3 bolts to make sure the pulley doesnt retard the timing as the belt is tensioned!
all you need to do to check it is pin the crank and see if the cam pin will go in easily.

if they wanted to oil things they should have stuck to metal chains, if they want belts keep the bloody things out of the oil!

Saw a thing on the local news about it earlier, one trailer test guy said he'd just lost £14k worth of business. I'm a bit hypocritical because I was towing long before I got anywhere near a truck licence, but with current roads and the standards of driving I'm not sure it's a good Idea 🤔 Probably an unfortunate isolated case, as every company around here that offers trailer tests also do all the other HGV classes, C1, C and D+E, their (the dvsa) thinking is to get them training more along that avenue than trailers as not that many use trailers Professionally, and boost the number of truck drivers.

no, pointless 'upgrade' stick an appropriate oem style regulator on and be done with it, you should never need to adjust the pressure on fuel injection systems.

probably an 019 sized case, thats what I have on my E34, there is a fair variance in capacities and price, just get the biggest one with longest warranty you can afford.

they can rust, especially the older ones, but typically only if they've had some damage on the sills.
axles don't "chuck a spring", the needle roller bearings wear into the surface of the shaft, this allows a little play and water gets in, then it turns into a grinding paste, you get that notorious PSA camber
it is something to look out for, but not as known for it as the smaller vehicles like the 106, 306, its a much sturdier unit first used on the 405.
look out for grumbly gearboxes, the 1360cc engines all use the MA unit, later 1598cc 16v used a BE4 box, much much sturdier, but as mentioned possibly only found in the facelift Multispace.
rear seats of the multispace come out easily though, my Mother has used one for many years carrying bikes around, it came with blacked out rear windows, has the bonus of sliding doors to enable maximum tat loading LOL

aem at around 150 is decent, comes as a package of sensor and gauge, the controller ia in the gauge, uses the same bosch 6 wire most will have, make sure its the newest 4.9 version, they've been out a while so probably arent many of the old 4.2 around.
