I miss read that, and thought you meant when the engine was cold !!!!! Which I thought was odd......
Back out with the dogs, & Missus to old quarry, dogs had good run. Had a bit of fun on wet turf,rocks & mud, lovely. I need a couple of tyres, can't complain, they've done 20k miles. I was going to change to more off road biased pattern (I'm running Nankang SP5s), but I don't think I need to now. I'm having enough trouble trying to get stuck with these, keep failing miserably.
I'm a fraud, can't fill the forum with pictures of broken oily bits or obscure electrical connectors. My windows have been done, I've got a power box on, the sunroof doesn't rain in, my transmission works. Sorry everyone.

Gearbox has been a bit whiney lately so thought I'd change the oil.
Read Hippo's instructions, whipped out to Maplin's and bought a thermometer.
On the way back, indicator started playing up - I had previously fixed a broken spring connector by building it up with solder.
Got home and bought new bulb holder on Ebay.
Then realised the thermometer was the wrong one :doh:

Renovated the tailgate latch which become flaky.
Stripped actuator assembly, Tri-Flo'd it up, fitted back in tailgate, been fine so far!
Re-seated the tailgate window seal which was pinched at the corner, so hopefully that will stop the water ingress (membrane was fine), not sure if it will stay re-seated, but worth a go.
Indicator bulb holder arrived in the post, different colour to the existing one but I don't suppose that will matter.
Will try it when it stops raining.
