Mikey B has another question
Before anyone thinks I'm stupid , where is the dipstick (not me) for checking the engine oil, and where do I top it up from?
Cheers

No question is 'stupid' if you dont know the answer !
Remove the centre console by unscrewing the plastic wing nuts ( secreted under the ash tray and one in the back recess).
Lift up the carpet around the base of the passenger seat and undo the 3 spring clasps ... the seat will then tip back to reveal ....... YES and engine !!!
The dipstick is to the left ( i think ) with the filler cap in the normal place on top of the rocker cover.

Oil
Yep I had a big surprise when I lifted the bonnet, and saw where you can add water, screen wash, brake fluid but no engine.
Thanks for the replies, I go and check it out now.

Mikey while you are in there check all the pipes for rubbing, some of them fit into spring clips and work loose, you will see what I mean when you check, lots of us have had to re clip or use ties to hold them out of the way, if some of these rub through...big problems, there are threads on here regarding it. Good luck, Happy motoring.

If I may jump in here with a (sort of) related question - does the driver's side lift the same way? I've found the dipstick but didn't check the driver's side. According to the manual it appears the driver's side lifts the same way but I've got the middle conversion from Manchester Campers and the unit will prevent the seat from tipping back - so how do you do it? I'm having an alarm / immobiliser fitted on Monday so will the fitter need to access the engine compartment?
