Cheers guys ive decided to go for a oil feed banjo bolt first as i believe this helps with the idle smoke problem.I just need to find someone to fit it as im useless with tools lol.
Also how big a job is it to change the fog light lenses in the front bumper as a stone has cracked one?
Cheers

Cheers Welcome!  I don't think you can change just the fog light lenses, I think you have to change the whole fog light which are £150 per side
