fitted replacement NCDC2013 and display.....    (£110 delivered ,  all working,  with code,  satnav disk,  manual,  and mounting cage assembly just in case.... on the downside, it had a dire straits  cd still in it's cdc case....  offending item removed....  rapidly....  ....     )

anyone knowledgeable want to come round sometime and assist me in fitting parking sensors???    then there's  the crank sensor pissing out oil.....   and brake pads to do....   


(got a dry (ish) garage,  with some lighting and heating of sorts....    ,  and big enough to get the Mv6 estate in to and close the door and still move around .....   )

Im hoping to put the alternator back aon the Cavalier again today.If it still leaks I will contact 2woody and see if his kind offer is still open.If I get the cav up and running,then I really need to change the dispack on the Omega,as the misfire is getting noticably worse.
After that,the stat on the Omega when I can find some time to do it.

Actually .. I'll be at home at a loose end on Saturday if you want to pop over and do it in the (slightly) warm(er) garage (that you can't shut the door on with an Omega in it .. but you can stand in front of the fan heater!) ;)

Need to do mine too :-X ::)

Nice big workshop up here :y (Although there's no heater at present so not exactly warm ::))

I must go and do an oil and filter change in the next couple of days :-[

Really, really need to do the oil & filter on mine, too.. Should have done it on Sunday but got too annoyed with the M3's brakes. I'm not even going to say how many miles it is since the last oil change  :-X

That makes me feel a little better ;D ;D

I'm overdue, but not too badly, and know I'm likely to do the best part of a change interval in the next month or so ::)
