Gave the rangie a bit of a wash and then took she who must be obeyed to a garden center Oh it is a great feeling to potter along in the sunshine with the aircon set just right and wave to the peasants as we go by.
I use the scraper blade on the digger to pop tyre beads
I will have to remember that 1.
I used the trolley jack and ratchet strap last time I did a bike tyre.

It's a good idea to log the faults, if you have a repeated problem but with mostly a different fault logged each time, it may well be the driver pack playing up. Hopefully it was just a glitch that will not be repeated.Don't know Keith,first of all loads which was down to bad Comms just cleared the lot when I got good idle haven't been out in it since,I hope it knows it's on the naughty step.

Hi all,
Just to butt in and in not in order backlog since purchasing the vehicle a few months ago:
Just to butt in and in not in order backlog since purchasing the vehicle a few months ago:
- garage review
- change of bonnet and boot strats
- changes of alloys (turned out to be an adventure in itself :/)
- wax and inside deep clean
- LPG servicing
- a few green laning trips (plenty of scratches to serve as proof :/)
- two separate trips re non-working rear sensors to the garage - still not fixed, not going back to that garage again...
- trip to south of Wales with a little bit of green laning
- loads of fueling up
- a few trips for work
- second attempt at paperwork with the beloved DVLA
- finding solution to music AUX issue
- fixing sun visors
- a number of skip runs & transportation of bulky items

Found a drip from the rear diff and then these 2 commandeered the boot.

Yes will do, hopefully just a glitch, probably due to me washing it for the first time in four years

Are they dimpled discs? Looked everywhere for some but could only find slotted & grooved
You put the jack part on the bead close to the rim, then ratchet strap the whole lot down to the frame of the trolley. then jack it up.
Can be a bit of a faff getting it all lined up but it works. Search U tube you will find loads.
