Removed the 6CD changer from rear of the Tourer and updated all the apps on the Navall 2 there were 33 updates and it took almost 20 minutes, that`s the amount of time it takes me to connect the phone as a hotspot, always trouble with that and it makes me wonder how much life have people wasted on the damn bluetooth rubbish way of connecting items.
Plenum was bone dry and I could see daylight through the drain hole, I think someone snipped a bit too much off the tube.
Different story on the saloon, that had about an inch of water in there, maybe that needs a bigger snip job.

Got extremely annoyed with it, as the clutch master has failed, YET AGAIN, so I've abandoned it in the garage, until I have time to do anything with it, again.

Wow, you've been unlucky Fraser. Tried a Mk1 Tazu? I know it's not really made to fit, but I got the copper pipe routed fairly easily. Seems to be working fine, already put 1k miles on it.

The most beneficial thing I've noticed is you can shine a light and see the fluid level without much effort.

It had a Rover one originally, which was faultless, but when the clutch was done, as preventative maintenance, I had the master changed. The mark 1 Tazu failed within 10 miles. This mark 2 failed within 10,000 miles, and again within 300 miles. Utterly useless. You couldn't pay me to own another manual 75 after this.
