Yesterday morning I tested out my remote controlled FBH which I had fitted last weekend. Works a treat

Not done myself but had 2 fr shocks,2 drop links and 2 top bearings fitted. Only to be told that i need a new wishbone near side. These speed bumps in town are really peeing me off. Thinking about starting a petition to have them replaced with cameras.

I washed, polished and waxed my Unions, ready to fit them in the next couple of weeks, complete with four seasons tyres. Two new tyres are to be fitted whenever they have time to do them, at which point I'll be ready for winter.

LED number plate lights fitted, pain in the butt as the tourer snap in lenses move the "bulb" when you put them back, full LED interior swap, fixed a bad contact on the rear interior light.. and let the missus drive the Cdti to Kendal. There will shortly be a 1.8T connie se on the market #alldieseldriveway

Gave it the thirtieth coolant flush of the week

Time to put some antifreeze in tomorrow, and drop it back off for Andrew.

I'm looking forward to getting the disappointing grey thing away from the door, it's making all of the other cars look good

Note to self, if anyone else comes along with CDTi oil cooler failure, tell them to go elsewhere
