  15. were do we start, if your really ocd youl start with a good clay to remove pretty much everything you cant see on there for a start try some autoglym super resin polish then go over with a wax are sealant. once you have done that no need to polish again for a few months just keep it topped up with your wax of choice say once a month to 6 weeks, longer if you get a good wax. dont wash it with fairy liquid to , youl remove all your hard work :D

    They usually melt when the coil pack has a constant 12v and earth. One side of the coil pack should have a constant 12v + and the other side will be pulsed earth by the ECU. Usually when they melt 12v + and - are constant due to a short. Make sure that the wiring from the ECU to the coil hasn't been trapped or is shorting to the engine. copied from another forum :rolleyes:
