Dropped the wheel off to see if it can be made round again.  He said he'd call me in a couple of hours, but he hasn't.  Not sure if thats a good or bad sign!

Bought a new tyre for mine today. Stupid £ucking sh!try roads. 

I don't think I'm a grand in yet this year.  I'm well over a grand in in the last year though.

Had a Kia K5 for a day...

Meh.

I had some crappy small van yesterday, Vauxhall maybe?, that I had to tolerate a repeated limp mode, and it was giving me a countdown before it would stop starting due to an emission fault.

Enterprise really make my life a bloody misery

Have to say, for £38 a day, I can't really complain. Between 4.it works out at £15 each for a day out

Suspect when the bill arrives, mine will be double that, as I have to suck up delivery and pick up costs, plus out of hours delivery

Does it still have SL?

The snapped studs - drill them out and use nuts and bolts.  Needs decent drill bits, not the 10,000 bits for 50p egay shite.

Elite 3.2

Got a broken rear spring and in the process of removing them I noticed an ident LA on each spring. Had a look through the forum and it looks like the LA identifer is a mystery that VX does not seem to have a part no for. Before I started removing them I thought the ident would be long gone so ordered a set of KYB that I've seen mentioned on here. Are the KYBs ok for the elite now that I think on it.

Springs still look pretty good nick, well apart from the broken one, the coils are still relatively black with little rust.

One of the centre sections and the back box is toast so I removed them but the 4 bolts between cats and centre section have all snapped. I don't see any other way to remove the studs but remove the cats and to get more access, tried some heat and no joy.

To remove the each cat is it the 2 plugs for sensors and the 2 upper bolts to remove from manifold? Any other little sneaky things hiding waiting to take the skin off my knuckles?

Cheers

Changing both centre sections and back box today on elite, all 4 bolts snapped on the centre section join so going to be a fun afternoon!

Cleaned out the cabin/pollen filter chamber today and made sure the water/gunk can flow freely out the waste pipe.

Got it cleaned out just in time as water was nearly up to the bottom of the pollen filter. 

Killer🤣
