Thanks all! When the car returns to the fold, tomorrow, I will get a chance to have a check. 1. How hard is it to get to that bulb? 2. What bulb type is it? thanks

Whereabouts in the instrument pod is the high beam warning light?

Just had the K11 MOT done. I was advised the high beam warning light is defective. Is there one? Where is it? thanks

The old 'they all do that sir!' Ah well, it's reassuring. I changed the oil, £26 worth of full synthetic. Still sticky shift on that change down, but all the others are now easier. Hot tip, make sure your favourite oil drain container has not gained a split since you last used it. Yuk.

On our 120 000 miler, the downshift between third to second is becoming 'notchy'. Is this a sign of a failing shaft bearing, or worn selector?

Hayne's says three litres of sae80. The engine needs three litres of oil. Can anyone confirm this amount is correct?

This is the last item on the service list for our 1996 K11 1.0. I have looked around the top and front of the gearbox, but cant see the level plug. Where is the level plug??? I really dont want to try and take the speedo cable out to do an oil change! It's EP90 for the box too? About 1 litre?

Thanks Frank. Screw released seatbelt return frame and the panel. Further plastic nibs on the back of the panel, similar on the door pillar cover, all came away without breaking any. Pressed the dent out with various bits of wood and replacement was the reverse of the above. All much better now.

Our youngest has added a new dent to the K11 3 door, just behind the drivers door in the soft soft side panel. How does the inner trim, the large bit under the rear side window, come out? I am hoping to just push the dent back out. thanks
