Hello!
I've just registered, after viewing the forum for a couple of weeks so that I can fix the newest car to the family.
Its a '03 Stilo 1.6 Dynamic. Paid £850 which was clearly too low! After a bit of playing around I diagnosed a stuck/holed exhaust valve. So I replaced 2 new valves, water pump, gaskets, pulleys and belts, and the car is up and running. (If anyone is interested, I did the cambelt by using the tippex method and didn't remove either cam pulley)
Anyhow, the car still has some faults (P0300, P0304, P0351, P0352, P0353, P0354, U1600, P0443, P0638, U1706, P0101, airbag warning light on & fractured front air con pipe!)
I look forward to asking some questions, and maybe I can answer some too.
Cheers,
Dave
