Intercooler seals - got me there...not done it, but being a very late facelift, not sure it needs it doing? Either way, I would check it if / when the resistor needs replacing.

Thanks. I realise that I am aware of the bonnet cable mod. and the pipework stuff. Not aware of the sponge mod.. I'll look it up after Easter.

Inter-cooler hose seals can fail. Replace them with Vitreon (sp?) seals (Contact Jules).

Cheers,
