Sun came out later in the day so I replaced the autochanger (again) and that’s the last spare I have, maybe time to look at iPod integration instead? Also had a look at the park sensor issue. My ecu pins were damaged by water ingress so I fitted the replacement which didn’t work? Operation was intermittent beforehand and was put down to water damage to the ecu. T4 fired up and the fault was traced to the rear bumper connector. I need to see if I can source a connector, failing that I will hard wire it.

After NOT fitting it the first time I suffered from F.F.S, I thought I should probably do it after getting caught a second time.

It was actually a F.W(white).C but it does the same job. Took about 20 minutes including refitting the port seal where the guy who put it back last time hadn't done it quite right and you could see where it had been crushed.

35 miles to work this morning and all seems fine apart from the fact that the car stinks of petrol!

Changing back springs on the Contemporary Se
There’s a canny difference between the factory lowered springs and new ones
