Got most of the wiring done for my roof lights. Replaced two of them with X-Lites - really nice little lamps. Gonna have to do the other two now as they look decidedly pants in comparison!

Finally got my heater o-rings replaced and heater back in service, without the bypass. So far so good, extended road test revealed no leaks and heat where there should be, although it looks like the distribution blend motor is either stuck or knackered, but that's a job for tomorrow.

Worked out why one of the Wipac 8" spots I fitted a week ago had stopped working already. Bloomin' dodgy connector INSIDE the light itself. Brilliant.

Subjected it to the missus' driving .
Potentially I could be away abroad with work again a week Tuesday so figured she has to learn to remain independent around here - and it's her car !
The road to our house is not possible to get to with anything other that a 4x4 since mid november. It's a farm track - you turn off the farm track into a fairly steep valley then round a 180 degree bend on a steep slope The car and my van have not been much closer than 2 miles. Rusty copes with it well though !
The farmer drives a defender 90 and my neighbour walks to his car and thinks im going to get the Landy stuck at the house one ofthese days !- im still waiting - was 8 inches deep when I first got it and it got out
Here's hoping she gets the hang of it - tomorrow morning she's driving me round the bend and up the hill !

fitted my tree/rock sliders yesterday really happy with the fit
blue beasty
Leaks an prone to bits dropping off
finally got round to investigating the mysterious and slightly scary ticking noise coming from my 200Di. After being told by 2 mechanics that it sounded like a sticky valve and resigning myself to taking the head off at the weekend , thought I might as well check the tappets. All were within a smidge of the proscribed .008''..........apart from 1 at about .025''.......turns out the bloody IDIOT who set them when he put the engine in.....ME :doh: didnt pinch up the adjuster :doh::doh:..........She's running sweet as a nut again now
