That's what I figured.  So I have:
   a) Leaking front crank seal.
   b) Mysterious 'air loss' stutter under boost.
   c) Squirreling sound under engine braking.
   d) Clunky-clunky with fierce low gear acceleration.
   e) Front left wheel mis-aligned (you should see the tyre).
   f) Throw-out bearing on the point of failure.
   g) Various electrical gremlins.
Time for the bus to go up on blocks, I think.
Needs a wash, too.
