To answer everyone's points:
  • Power feels fine across the range so I suspect it's OK
  • No coolant leaks as of yet, but I'll definitely check it
  • AC is cold and seems alright, not used it much yet though since I've had it through Winter

Hopefully if I get a print out I'll be able to work out what's been done - especially because all the MOTs were done there too.

A print out of works done is absolutely possible - they just can’t be bothered.

I bet if you said I’ll book it in for a service as long as you provide a full service printout they would do it....and provide you a loooong list of stuff that has to be done :-(
Yeah I agree - before I bought the car I called to confirm they had done the cambelt and they happily obliged then. I think it just sounds like work for them - to be fair though, I'm not a paying customer so why should they help me I guess... I don't want to flap too hard and **** them off.

Going leave it a week or two and have another go. I'd take it there for the service for the sake of getting all the history but it's 5 hours away!
