Well my nails have never been so clean. Am away for a couple of weeks visiting family in New Zealand, so no work at all has been carried out on the Rover fleet..

No doubt there will be a list waiting for when I get back.

I have sorted a loose battery connection on a Honda, and a coolant leak on a Subaru whilst here though.

Unhappy

Mine failed its mot, costing £££ to fix but what can you do. Just need to work a bit harder and earn the money back.

Brought mine home from work where it's been for about 2 weeks as I've been using work cars. I fitted a new key fob case to the spare key and also to both of the 'classics' keys. The spare key fob case on my tourer is a case of unknown origin that I had in my tool box and the classic got two Valeo ones that I bought from eBay. All 3 key blades don't sit flush with the housing, is that normal with replacement cases?

£15 for a cut key from a photo of your key by keys in the post, pop the old transponder in, brand new key, no more blades in ignitions
