Default General Fault Finding

Hi All,

Time to sell my beloved crossfire... A few issues have crept in over the last month or two, so I'm going to need to get her fixed up so the new owner can enjoy! I'm just trying to get an idea of the magnitude of the work that I'll need to have done... I think most of the issues are pretty common, and I may be able to DIY a couple of them, but wanted to run them past the forum first... If you could give me a likely 'root cause' for the issues and let me know how easy they are to fix, that'd be great

1/ Rumble under low gear acceleration and an intermittent vibration at motorway speeds... I've been told this is probably something to do with a centre bearing on the prop (any ideas? Is it a big job?)
2/ General Electrical gremlins. Mainly connected to the main stalk which does everything. The 'full beam' doesn't work. The right indicator works when it wants to. The heater controls on the centre console operate randomly, i.e; 1 blows harder than 3, and 5 is off etc... Quite comical really - I'm hoping this is all just one dodgy earth somewhere and not a whole host of issues. Your experience will be helpful here
3/ Active spoiler doesn't work, either at speed or by the button - The 'red light' is on and blinks when depressed

Everything else is cosmetic

If you can chip in with some insight, I'd really appreciate it. Thank you
