So what have you done to your car today?

[Nick W]

Rear wheel bearing, and hbv/lubed wiper mech joints re sealed scuttle.


All the shit jobs all at once. Happy bloody days! 

None of those jobs are that bad, unless you have to do the wheel bearing in the rain. It went OK presumably?

...and the handbrake. Don't forget the hand brake. ....I hate the damn hand brake!

Yes ok I guess. Had hoped to use existing circlip pliers and get away without a spline m10 bit. ....wronggggg.

That bearing puller kit is wirth it weight.

Nothing today yet, but plan on driving it to work and back home again and maybe into ASDA car park for some shopping then back home and park up and maybe a few beers , but yesterday I drove it to ASDA car pork and went shopping and beat the holy crowd cramming the car park before 11 a.m.

Just got back from a few days in the Lake District. All went well except I seem to have lost my parking sensors.

Gota watch those Cumbrians, they'd have the eyes out of your head soon as look at ya

[Lagondanet]

Not the units but their functionality.

Do the sensors still buzz if reverse is selected? Obviously inition on, engine off... if so, it could simply be my wiring

[Lagondanet]

Tested on the dustbin. Back now Al. Thanks.

Also got back from a week in the Lakes - well the Sth Lakes, Carnforth area... was quite a bit wet and windy TBH but lovely scenery to be had once the rain cleared LOL




@ Lagondanet - where in the Lakes was you...?

[Lagondanet]

Near Crosthwaite/Bowness/Windemere. More sun than shower. 

[minifreek]

Aaah we'll be up that way again in August, around Pooley Bridge/Ulleswater. Will be having a lovely scenic drive over Kirkstone Pass to Bowness and will stop at Windermere just for an Ice Cream... Might even have a ride o 1 of the Ulleswater Steamers again or even have a little sail about on Windermere too

[Lagondanet]

Yes. All the Lakes are nice. Try Hardnott & Wrynose Passes & back on Honnister Pass if you have the time. Good test for the car! 

[minifreek]

Just did a virtual map thing to incorperate all those and thats a fair drive, seems worth it for the 120mile round trip.... can be done

Deeeeeeeeeeeeeeep cleaning the interior, stripped out the rear leather seats and in the process of cleaning and conditioning them, also need to get a lot of sticky something of the drivers window and mirror buttons, basically a whole hell of a lot to do
