Welcome to OOF
New windscreen on the V70.
Washed the Omega, hoovered the interior and changed a number plate bulb, then "improved" as opposed to fixed, the dented rear hatch on the Welsh Cl-Eeyore .
Oil and filter change on the Zafira, along with new pollen filter and air filter. Still can’t find coolant leak on 3.2, strangely it only ever leaks on way back from work.

I've never used u/v dyes and black torches .. far simpler way is two bottles of bright yellow food colouring added to system then run the car for a representative time such that the leak occurs ... you will then see a yellow "stain" at the point of leakage. Advantage of this method is that a small leak where the liquid evaporates quickly leaves a nice yellow stain that is easily visible... it has never failed me in over 40 years on numerous motors .. it is also a VERY cheap diagnostic tool https://www.sainsburys.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/gb/groceries/dr-oetker-yellow-colour-gel-15g?storeId=10151&langId=44&krypto=9MyoELdR9epibnY0YeY9uXMaRDNe9yynaA52NHA2q3qCWNk4p6I%2B7sJVeoqyN%2By9VUNVb2452%2BlIYQzhSsfwj3hHKsVLyejy1HWfHXODSiy%2FllrgKUwn1Q7VEcmuGMmImjAFxMx%2BatI%2B%2BNIS7fM3CFmJEz5uW0xNo3vFJ%2FUTdIw%3D&ddkey=https%3Agb%2Fgroceries%2Fdr-oetker-yellow-colour-gel-15gother makes are available ...
