That's ok. I couldn't upload the pictures yesterday. So here they are today. I used 3mm self adhesive neoprene which is cheap and pretty effective. I stuck a piece to the inner door skin.
I completely covered the door inner surface with the neoprene sheets. This stops sound coming though from the outside and makes the door less likely to rattle. Speakers will sound better too.
Doing this to the front doors has made a very noticeable difference to the general road noise, and makes the door panel sound different when tapped. It is now very evident that the rear of the cabin is noisy when driving. I did a before and after "tap test" video.

Oh dear!Checked the oil the other day after the FL had sat for a few days. Guess what I saw?
Sigh, It's not much, but I've taken the precaution of ordering in a new HG and bits.
Not something to do with the weather turning cold and its condensation or some sort? Dunno where the condensation would come from though.
Presumably you can't tell if you're losing coolant because of your weeping rad!

Weather , yes I did consider that. Most mornings are below 0ºC and only rise to single digits.
Radiator weeps more freely on these cold days - I'm guessing its something contracting with the cold and loosing its seal. New rad' was ordered last Thursday, arrived in Auckland on Sunday morning and was delivered yesterday. Pretty good service that. I ordered a BearMach supplied on. Last one was Allmakes. I asked LRD what was the warranty claim history re rad's - very few was the answer. I was trying to work out if other brands lasted longer in service.

Round here in the beautiful and fantastic Yorkshire, if it even slightly sounds like or rhyme's with 'penis' or has some of the same letters in it, then it is obviously a joke or play on words that can be used to ridicule the author or whoever said it, for hours on end. Usually ending up after numerous pints of alcoholic beverages with one person laughing uncontrollable until they can't breathe.
We're quite simple and easily entertained
Therefore, @Nodge68 saying 'penal vibration' had me spitting my cuppa tea out and nearly falling out the work van into the fly tip I was supposed to be picking up. When I shows it my work mate his pop he'd just taken a swig of came down his nose, this was nearly as funny and we didn't need the numerous pints of alcohol to get to the laughing until you can't breathe stage. I'm still giggling now writing this
Anyway, to stop penal vibration one sticks pipe lagging on your todger, which I then showed my reply to said mate and falling about laughing started again.
Yes we did move the fly tip eventually, but it was hard as I couldn't see through the tears and had stitch from laughing.
You should come here sometime, it's great

I'm not going to Yorkshire again. I went to Shipley once!

You'll need to put the clamp round the exhaust connection with the EGR blanking disk.
Nice to see another auto on the forum.
