I'd never heard of that. Just had a read up about it, fascinating.It's not uncommon for me to walk into a room and then wonder what I went in there for. |

SEVERE GEOMAGNETIC STORM WATCH: Giant sunspot AR3664 has now hurled at least four CMEs directly toward Earth. Their combined arrival this weekend could spark severe (G4-class) geomagnetic storms with mid- to low-latitude auroras. Although this is a potentially significant space weather event, it is not going to be the next Carrington Event. If the coming storm were a hurricane, it would be ranked category 4, not category 5.
Sunspot AR3664 has grown so large, it now rivals the great Carrington sunspot of 1859. Carrington's sunspot is famous because in August and Sept. 1859 it emitted a series of intense solar flares and CMEs. The resulting geomagnetic storms set fire to telegraph offices and sparked auroras from Cuba to Hawaii. The "Carrington Event" has since become a touchstone of space weather in pop culture, with recent headlines stoking fears of an "internet apocalypse" if it repeats.  See https://spaceweather.com/ |

Sure, but hot day and engine hot when you stop it, oil pressure is zero but coolant not, that was my fear... I did this job on my zafira B (same engine). Mine was losing coolant through a crack in the rear of the plastic thermostat housing. May be worth checking 😊 |

Time to start worrying is when you go into the bathroom and forget what you went in there for🤣

Sorry, I seem to have been blind for a while
 Yes, I can still help with this. Is there a particular date that would suit you? |

You CAN change dust covers on track rod ends BUT it requires removing the nut/breaking the taper free .
at which point you may as well replace the TRE especially if your also removing the steering linkage for boots ,or replacement then the tracking will need doing . inspect the boots , if they are not split (allowing the ingress of water ,an MOT FAIL ) the leave them be  If there is any play in joints ,replace the track rods ,steering links etc ,anything on it's way out ,in one go ,then get tracking done |
