Ok, finally got around to messing about with my new toy, i'm having a look under the bonnet and it looks like nothing i've seen before.

Could anyone identify the points mentioned, and give me some idea what their function is.




What i know as a 'header tank' looks to be number 5, but not sure...

I just need to know what everything does basically! Anyone live around Kearsley, Bolton who can spend 10 mins pointing things out?!
Cheers, Paul.

1 I think is the ABS controller
2 Coolant header tank
3 Turbo heat shield
4 Intercooler
5 Coolant header tank overflow

JT386

3 is the cooling chimney for the turbo, directs air from the scoop down onto the turbo

4 is the intercooler, cools air coming from the turbo before it is forced into the engine

Welcome to the world of scoobs Paul, but when you say messing what are you doing with it?

Not doing much really, ive had the car for a few weeks but not really got around to having a play.

I need to get an understanding of what does what in the engine bay.
