But how do you wipe?I'm lucky I just rake gravel over my messes

Think outside, no box required.

Very gently and with caution I should think.
I'd rather drop the oil, it can drip while the other work is carried out

Is that the sensors off mine or did they go on other P38?Today I went out early to swap my repaired wheel then all four lights on the EAS switch came on again

looking at the wiring it could be possible to fit the ones with the wiring tail on them. depending on how they mount I should have checked when I was under. The posting in error was due to being knackered, didn't mean to do so much.

Let me know if there’s anything in particular you need. Still have some odds n sods lying about. Considering taking/cutting the EAS tank off underneath. Vehicles too far to reinstate now so it’s dead weight really

Thanks Jack, I'll check what my tank's like.
How did you get on with the MOT?

He’s booked up for ages, good ones always are, so mot is in 2 weeks. Going to use that time and what’s left of my budget to fit new front callipers and slotted discs new pads.
I didn’t mean the Tank - looks pretty weathered but surprising what’s in the suitcase still

I'm very lucky with the guy I have used for years for MOT's if it's possible he fits me in, as long as I'm flexible. A couple of weeks ago he told me to turn up and he'll see what he could do. When I got there I was number six in the queue,I said no problem, it's good to be out of the house. The queue mysteriously evaporated.

I did this to mine last week and the oil came pouring out. I mean gushing! It's fair to say it was overfilled by the useless mechanic. Never again.start the motor and run it through the gears, then slip underneath and check, there should be a steady stream of fluid coming out the filler hole

Teach them young. That is not a Range Rover
She could've bought something much better for the money. The Merc GLB and GLA are in the same price range.

I could go somewhere else to be quicker but he is the PO enjoys seeing how it’s coming along and more than anything i trust him.
He will look over what I’ve done make sure everything is safe, let me know if he spots a future problem and I don’t have to worry about explaining things like ‘no the ABS light isn’t supposed to go off immediately after starting’, ‘no it’s a factory fitted engine’ or ‘FFS four wheel rolling road!’ Like I would with a usual garage

Good MOT testers are worth their weight. Strict but fair, know when something shouldn't pass but that you get it done immediately.
Had that in the past on my bike - wheel bearing dodgy, but I passed a bearing factors on the way home and they knew every time I had sorted it for retest the following day. I was back that afternoon to prove it was done and they weren't being mucked about.
Similar with exhaust blow - mentioned I had a new exhaust at home waiting to go on and was told it was fine when he tested but must have blown on my way home.

Can i take it apart to clean it up? Presume that's the issueCar went into 1st again while driving in D
It was actually 1st, not neutral as i previously thought
Believe its just a different sump that has the dipstick. If the dipstick can be altered in some way

You can pull it apart and give it a going over with contact cleaner.
