Use her to move into the new apartment... I feel out of place around here. Also, the arch way in and out are tight as ****. I am millimetres away either side.

Ordered a new accumulator.

tarphenry · May 13, 2018

replaced the two vertical rubberised pieces that bubble at the edges of the front side windows. Only replaced the vertical pieces. looks much better. looking now for two more to do the rears. Cost £5.00 each side.

Probably same screws , them rusty ones are inside .
Will wait till summer arrives to get the scuttle off , again . Just done the scuttle foam !!
Will I need the plastic bits as well or will silicone do ?

tanis8472 · May 13, 2018

I did them without removing the whole scuttle etc. Just a bit of undoing some screws and gentle opening of gap to change it. No silicone used, just the new screw and clip done up snug.

Its the hole where the water leaks in. The foam on the clip perishes and allows water in.

Liking the sound of this, didn't even know they could be replaced, never mind sourced.. Gonna take a second look at mine. ( When the engine is back together, obviously..)

That's a good idea. MIne are bubbling. And the plastic at the bottom of the rear right window on mine is loose!

I have had a look and I reckon that rear window trim along the top is the same as the vertical trim.I used polyurethane adhesive to fill the joint at the top.

Bagshot · May 13, 2018

Are these easy to source.. All my black door window trims have bubbling underneath

if you look for complete ones, no, everyone wants a fortune for them. but if you look for ones that have bubbled like yours and use the top run from the rear windows you should be able to buy them at a reasonable price

Another pass on the MOT, no advisory, that's 5 on the trot now , maybe 6, can't remember now. Who says these beautiful P38s are a mare to live with.

Someone was asking me about Parking Sensors. The ones on mine are Brees. Never heard of them but they were going cheap at the time. They have a visual display showing left and right distance bars as well as the beeping.
