Anyone done the valve adjustment on a 488. How difficult is it to get at the vacuum hoses? Any videos online?

Many thanks

Steve

Very easy. I did mine at home with just a trolly jack, some tools and two golf tees. Where are you based?

I have mine, but I had it when it was already installed.

The plonker that sold it to me said that the previous owner had it done at a dealership and it came with a remote control, so you can turn it, "quiet", if you want.

Mine works brilliantly.

Having said that, to install, it looks like a rear back-end-off job.

but then, I have the choice, if you want to just jam them open, it should work well. Driving like it all the time is wearing though. Great when I want to miff everyone off in town, terrible if I want to drive somewhere.
