I have been collecting up all the old how-to-do's to put into one place.  Once they are all here I'll ask Baxter to make it a sticky as Greg suggested.  There are 300+ pages for me to trawl though so it may be a while before it's complete.  I will put up any new ones I find and keep it bumped up for now.
There may be some missing pictures due to the Great Photobucket Extortion but some of the kind folks here have gone back through and replaced them using another hoster.  Thanks to everyone who has taken the trouble to post their take on these jobs. Clap

If you spot any broken links, mistakes or you no longer want to be included let me know. Feel free to add any new ones!  We have almost no T5.1/T6 specific how-to do's so any cam belt/water pump descriptions or anything about the 2.0 CR engines would be welcome. Smile

Note- I can't create a clickable link to Guy's absolutely brilliant Gen2 wheel bearing video, this looks to be because he has his youtube account set for no 3rd party traffic.  Since it is freely available on youtube I have left the direct address here so you can view it yourself.  I will PM him but not sure if he is still about.

Well, it's a little bit better now!  I can post the URL itself directly as I have but I can't make the whole thing clickable because the 'insert hyperlink' function here doesn't like the secure https prefix.  But at least it works now, thanks Guy! Thumbs Up

No trouble, you're most welcome.
I'm currently at 189k views bit I didn't make it for favour I made it to help others who were worried it may be beyond their abilities as a picture is worth a thousand word (YouTube is a tool)

Thanks! Smile  Not many T5's in Los Angeles assuming your sig is real. Wink  Maybe the new petrol engined vans will eventually get to you guys.  

All new T5 'how to do's' welcome however complicated or humble, a simple description of how to take a trim off could save someone breaking something unnecessarily.  If you did it, take a few pics, add some words and stick it here.  Thumbs Up
