the return spring is a little back on the handle. If you dismount the door ( it take less 5 min...) you would see directly

Air filter :
Dismount the 2 air tube on trottle body. Dismount the 4 screw on each airbox.
clean the box and replace airfilter .
Fuel filter :
Dismount the cover plugs and the cover.
Dismount old filter ( 2 keytools are required , 1 to block the screw and an other to dismount) , use the fastpin to dismount the upside.
Don't forget to have a cloth or a container to fil the leakfuel on it)
The hardwork consist to fil the adaptator plug on old filter to the new filter without leaking. Tork on it is hight.
After chek if one leak subsit ( run the engine), replace the rest.
Airconditioning filter:
Dismount he airblade ( 2x13mm screw under the plugs), and extract it with smalls movements.
unscrew the airblade box ( around 10 screw). You will see that :
Remove the 4 screws on the airbox
Remove the filter ( one raincover on left side require to be dismount)
On mine, air filter is more crappy and poor like i've never see ! New/older...
It's what a small odour of oldmen is in my car... F***ing old owner, he never make a correct maintenance...

Gearbox is 5-6hrs, oil sender 2-3hrs, belts 3-4hrs so I recon 20 hours is too much, if he is good, it could be done in half that/10hrs
Also with the radiator and cambelt apart the oil sender is easy to replace too.
If you have the cambelt done, get the radiator removed otherwise I guarantee it will start leaking a few weeks later, were they man handle it out of the way with the coolant pipes still attached and crack the radiator upper, lower or both flange(s)

Hi !!!! Update !!!!
3200GT working now ! No noise whaouuuuu!!!!
Independent specialist have repaced : Gearbox/clutch pressure plate+ Flywheel/ Cambelt kit / oil pressure sender (older working good...)/ Lambda sensor / ligths calibration.
Now car is just lovely to drive. Sound was fantastic , better than 4200 ( TubiStyle exaust, around 2500£...). I will post a youtube video later.
But i get some issue when specialist dismount the car : Exaust pipe is obstrued in intermediate box. I said me car lost around 60-80hp... .
Can I replace the box with a "x-pipe" homemade ? I'm afraid by the sound without the box...
What is the raw ?stainless ? inox ? magnesium ? I get a friend welder...

Hi Tom ,
good news that you are up and running again !
mine had some issues with the exhaust box you refer to ( I think something was loose) . I opened the bottom up , cleared out the debris - looks like a cross between a silencer and a cat , then welded back up and all good . This was done a few years ago - a little increase in exhaust note but nothing too much.
