Checked the fluid levels and checked the valve clearances after the head gasket replacement and a quiet week running round :)
 
Changed the rear shocks on the 300tdi, only fours bolts really but each one of em was a stubborn ####. Put the new headlight into the 200tdi, and was going to replace the missing door card plastic retainers except i've bought the wrong type.
 
greased all the grease nipples and cleaned and refitted my knackered engine earth strap hopefully get a new one fitted tomorrow
 
Was going to change the shoes on OSR, but snail cams are siezed.

Sprayed with penetrating oil and will leave it until tomorrow!

swapped ign barrel, drivers door lock,filler lock so one key fits all,changed n/s electric mirror,swapped gear knob's and covers for better one's.
 
Electric window stopped working, so after a quick search on google everyone seemed to suggest it would be a broken wire where the door opens- which it was.

So 5 mins with a soldering iron and job done!

Tricky to get at though.
 
Adjusted my drivers side mirror and checked coolant.

For some reason the temp gauge goes to hot for no reason and then drops down again! I've changed the stat and the sender with no difference!
 
Tightened the handbrake cable up .. unfortunately the effect that had was only just better!

Time for a full strip, clean and replacement of parts methinks .. or a brick on a string .. :)
