For a 19 16v? I know lots have people have done them and my car is approaching 70K so I thought it would be a good idea.

Just wondered if there is a walk through (preferably with pics), rather than relying just on Haynes?

Thanks for any advice

I'd hope your belt would have been done before now, once i've put my engine back together i'll see if i can get some pics that someone could put in to a guide?

That would be really helpful if possible?

Yeah I know belt should have been done before now, and I think it has been, but can't find paperwork from the last owner now, so I am going to have it done asap anyway.

Out of interest what would be a likely garage fee for this?

2/300 quid if they agree to take it on I would imagine.

*cough* just 2 things

1. It was your idea to reduce the PM limit

2. No PM's got deleted, it would have just given you a %age full greater than 100.

Actually, 3 things

3. Wanker!

how come they get auto deleted when it reaches 100% percent then? Or if they don't get deleted where do they go?

Since the limit reduction the oldest would be auto deleted if it was in your inbox, not if it was saved
