Thanks for that but I have looked at 2 recently on scrappers and they were both worse than the one on my daughters car, its messy so I think it's time to bite the bullet, haven't spent much on it in nearly 3 yrs anyway. Apart from alternator, timing belt and w/pump/tensioner all the rest has been maintenance, Oil, filters, plugs, brakes, wipers. Has been a great car thankfully.
