Changed the plugs on Ds 3.2... 246 coilpack is a pita to get at with all the lpg paraphernalia, but got there in the end

Now idles smoother than a very smooth thing  Nice to meet you D

It's a 3.2, it cannot idle that smooth 

mine ticks over smoothly since i fitted 3.0L downpipes,and put ngk plugs in.

Removed back seat sqaub, found two Lego men, 15 yogurt raisins,and 32p, then hovered it all out and cleaned all the leather.

Got a mahoosive 100amp battery for the 2.2 wheesel, not Vauxhall but Exide with a 3 year G/tee and only £56 which i'm going to fit today. If the car ever fails to start i'll just put it in gear and drive it home on the starter motor

Once again , THEY WERE PERFECT driven 32,000 miles with no problems , funny enough if it rains I turn them on!!  What  a stupid comment can't use them much .

Tilbo, did you find them noisy, esp when changing direction?

I'm after some new wipers, and struggling to know what to get (MV6, so dont need the shitty aero style). GM ones are getting pricy, and dont seem to last as well. Might try the Bosch supers that tunnie suggests. Currently using a year old set of Goodyears aero from Costco, but I really dont like aero wipers poor cleaning performance (though a requirement on cars with those stupid overactive rain sensors). At £7 I way try Hellfrauds own brand

Partially stripped and cleaned the rear seat, carpet, door card and had to bin the drivers seat back, as I would never be able to clean it properly

About to have a look and see what state it's in in daylight, but will probably end up pulling the sill trim out and dismantling the door card to ensure the edges are clean

At last , got to the root cause of no radio reception , broken wire to the aerial connection plug

Stripped the passenger door and replaced the door solenoid. It now locks/unlocks as it should. Replaced drivers door mirror, fitted floor mats and fixed the plastic trim on back of the front passenger seat then topped the oil. Happy days

Unplugged coolant level sensor plug and shorted it with a paper clip to get rid of the annoying onscreen message. Checked fluids while I was in there.
Prepped an AMG alloy for painting and then realised, with much annoyance, that I forgot to bring the paint to work with me.

Picked up MV6 Provdrive Spoiler in back garden, moved about a foot, slipped, fell backwards into Rose Bush and hit back of head against a tree. Left spoiler where it is and went back indoors.

Yea, only went to move the bloody thing because I tripped over it last weekend.

Be a lesson there

Yep, let sleeping Dogs Spoilers lie, actually think I must be concussed, just looked at it again through the window, its not a MV6 Spoiler its a MV6 Bumper.
