Definitely seems that way, have sprayed it copious amounts of wd40 earlier and it went in on the high side no problem and was easier to slide along the other gears aswell, low side it still didn’t seem to want to go into park but now after a longer drive it’s stiffened up again and won’t go into park well it it will with a bit a of a shove nowhere near as much as a shove as before the spray though so gonna give it another good spray, might see if there is something better that will hold on as I reckon the wd has evaporated with the heat from the exhausts.

Put up the plastic cover over the rear wiper motor earlier,

Had a look at the why the rear door won’t open from the inside turns out where the rod goes into the inner handle it’s missing the green plastic clip that holds it in to the hole though my googling can’t seem to find a replacement

had a look at why the front passenger window was jumping and causing the anti-trap sensor when going up. Looks like the left hand rail had go bashed on the lips so bent them out slightly and now that’s all good. Also found the speaker in that door had been left unplugged.

Tried to trace the stuff to do with the lpg to get that working but not a clue with that one wouldn’t event know where to begin to finish off the work that Kermit started.
WD will evaporate, you need a light oil / grease that will work in and stay liquid. Unless it is a teflon lined cable, when the oil can cause it to swell and bind. Made that mistake on the Guzzi once and it turned a heavy clutch to solid rock.

Chain oil or EP90 works well on the cable.

Am I missing something? (not unusual...) What is hydrogen treatment?
Have a mooch on YouTube, plenty of good results. Plenty of negative opinions also but I can only speak from experience. The hydrogen is used to shift carbon deposits front the combustion chamber in the engine. Not 100% but certainly a long way to maintaining the parts you can't economically clean yourself without major work and replacement parts compared to old school
de-coking;)

Seen people spray water into the air intake to 'steam clean', much like the v8s do all by themselves
 
Spent a few hours partially taking down the headliner in the P38 so that I can swap in a different sunroof. The one in the car does not close fully at the back edge. Will try and install tomorrow.

Check the seal hasn't swollen around the opening, as you know it can jam the sunroof:)
 
Fired the replacement outer door handle to the drivers door! Hurrah can get in properly now without looking like a weirdo climbing over the centre console or struggling to reach the inner handle from the rear door with short arms. Replacement door card clips came today aswell as I noticed the passenger ones were all broken or missing apart from one so gonna spray the window rails on both sides before I put the door cards back on.

Tsssk. I'd blame the PO.
