With the bov, you may have a leak somewhere in the intake system.

In regards to the noise under the power steering it may be loose manifold bolts causing an exhaust leak.

Best bet is to take the car to a qualified mechanic or one of the forum sponsors near you as they know these cars back to front

dunno if belt noise and under p/s noise might mean alternator issue? is p/s pump leaking oil down on to the alt?

or do as senna said

Thanks m8 .. I have it booked in for thurs next week

I also had a look for leaks and found that the oil breather hose on the top of the engine is broken could this be the cause ...

just had the car serviced and got the news that the intake manifold gasket is leaking ... bugger

few other little things that I can fix .... it seems that im always taking the car in for the hand break... wtf?

After I picked up my car I decided to drop by pit lane performance and I must say a big thanks to mick for taking the time to talk to me about future upgrades.. even though it is Friday knock off time .. cheers m8.. I look forward to dealing with him in the future ..
