So they are as follows:

1) Oil. I put litre of oil in my car and a week later the oil light flashes and the dipstick shows hardly any. Head Gasket? and how much to fix?

2) After tapping in the immobiliser code, sometimes the car won't start. No ignition whatsoever, doesn't even turn over. Flick the keys back to the '0' position a coupla times and then it starts

3) Doors. My doors won't stay open! Both of them won't hold their position after opening them.

4) Knocking of suspension rear passenger side. Its sort of a squeeky knock if you know what I mean.

5) Horn doesn't work. Pressing the button yields no results whatsoever, so I dunno if its a hooter or button problem. Any way to check?

6) Rear bumper cracked. Need a new one, dark green (racing). Posted in the wanted section and have been offered a VTS one (mines a VTR mk1). Will that fit? Its dark blue so respray costs?

I think thats about it for now lol. Any help on any of these points would be greatly appreciated. Cheers guys!

1) expensive if it is the head gasket and you need a garage todo the work(if you dont no a mechanic thatll do it cheaper)

5) check the fuse,your cigarette lighter wont work either if thats the case

6) yes not sure on the cost tho
