Rear subframe
That was my plan too but alas beyond my mechanical skills. How much do you think a garage would charge to replace it, with or without bushes being replaced.

Rear subframe
My recent MOT flagged up as an advisory Rear Subframe rust. I live on the coast admittedly. Is this a death knell. Just wondering about bigger jobs down the line in terms of, is the clock ticking ? 2006 Le Mans.

Witter detachable towbar.
Never had a key for this so ordered from Replacement key company. Doesn't fit. I assume this is the right code.
Witter codes start with TR on their site but barrel code is ACS...soaked in WD40 but anyone familiar with what the right code should be please.

Spare wheel
So I got a puncture and stuck the spacesaver on. 17" as opposed to 20" on the other 3. Probably be a few days until I can get a replacement. I'm guessing this will be okay regards DSC and gearing etc. Just wondering.

Smell of diesel.
Might be the cold weather but I seem to get a whiff of fumes on start up and in stopped traffic in the interior. Thought I was imagining it with commuting traffic but ever, ever so slight wobble on Rev Counter at idle.
Could this be a cracked manifold. Seems more prominent at bonnet.
