Guys,

Have some quite basic problems with the C124, wondered if anyone knew of a reasomably priced, honest mechanic that I could contact?

problems:
window regulator
general service
cold start valve needs a look / distributor cap
brakes need review
fuses need a look
indicators out

Easy stuff....:)

Where abouts in Surrey?
 
Go see Olly at PCS in Horndean. As honest as they come, highly competent, knowledgeable and very good prices. Worth the trip down the A3

Totally agree 100%! Can't get any better.
 
you do not have a cold-start valve and NO distributor.

can you not see the small valve (2 inches square) on the nearside inner wing marked with MOT on top ?

put hand on it or listen to it after car has reached full operating temp and see
if it is ticking at 2 beats per sec. It should be. If not, then a problem and needs to be replaced or cleaned out.

Is yours the 6 cylinder or 4 cylinder engine ? out of interest.
