Is now running much smoother than before. Scrap that - no go with the manifold gasket Ran fine for couple of days and have the cold start idle issue back - not every cold start though. Replaced throttle body this afternoon - let the car sit for a while. Fired it up - same issue. FARK!!

Well the plan tomorrow is to make sure the abs ring on the new axle and the sensor are playing nice. I'll remove the tailshaft and take it somewhere to get the bearing replaced. I'll be rearranging my shed so I can get the car in there. The floor is smooth and obviously I'll have protection from the weather. From there the subframe will come out maybe a day or 2 after so I can see wtf is going on with it. I'll be back in a day or 2 to complain about it some more. 1

There is oil dripping out from the coils and the coil cover gasket is rooted. A couple of the coils were nearly a cm off the plugs.
