The waste gate pipework is still attached and any linkages properly setup as far as preloaded goes if it's external?

That stuff was the bain of my life. Massive cause of concern on aircraft.

Have you tried sacrificing the kids to the gods? Win in both cases......

If its largely been laid up, you have had a good look around that's rats or mice haven't chewed on the wiring etc or haven't made a nest in the air pipework or exhaust? Only asking as I have witnessed all of these over the years and we tend to...

Round here they've cut back on staff on only deliver every 2 or 3 days depending where abouts you live. Special deliveries it's a guy running around in a van but normal 24/48 service can take 3 days.

I'm glad that's not just me. Although Evri round here has sorted it's game out recently which is good. Yodel on the other hand.....

Got to love "next day" delivery haven't you. Lately I'm getting parts from Estonia delivered faster than stuff bought in the UK.

Can buy printers quite cheap now. The first one i bout about 8 months ago for £80. This new one was £1300 but in my eyes it has been worth every penny. A lot of things I've made i couldn't buy or weren't suitable, so being able to design and...

They're wonderfully designed to maximise profit aren't they. Would much prefer the old fashioned way of screws.

Physical strength it's very similar, along with temp, chemical resistance etc. The main advantage is UV resistance. It apparently doesn't discolour like abs so doesn't need paint etc. It's a bitch to print though, does need a chamber/enclosure...

The 3d printer is possibly one of the best toys I've ever bought. Done wheel hub spacers, bonnet badges, various clips and mounts, custom designed brake vacuum adapter for a 12v vacuum pump to delete the mechanical one, coolant bottle caps...

Clip downs currently being printed. Lot beefier than the factory ones.

Those are the clips printed in ASA which is ABSs big brother.

Today I have mostly been 3d printing replacement parts for the 322. Namely replacement studs for the scuttle panel and clip down points for the boot floor. Also 3d printed a instrument cluster mount to use a lcd panel and raspberry pi as the...

Just a quick follow up. Finally got the tank level down to 1/4 tank (yes, it's not used much) and it's still running properly so looks like there was an issue with the fuel pump not siphoning fuel from one side of the tank. Time to start fixing...

I best not look then. I hate having switch blanks and unused connectors. Does my OCD in as something can be there but isn't......

Curious, the electrical library pdf I had only listed 2 15 way connections on the car. Might have to check mine now 🤔

Not sure it'll be just for memory seats as such, more likely linking the memory seats, mirrors and steering column maybe so they can automatically adjust for each user/key/button preset. Again, still learning how everything works, just basing...

Maybe Lunatic Confirmation Module

I have no idea tbh, pure guess. Only had the car 7 weeks and not even taken that trim off yet.....

Wondering if it could be this if its not meant for the LCM on the A-pillar.

Pot holes or bomb holes?

There's my baby. Slightly modified to say the least 😂

Know the feeling, there's some roads round here I'll only go down in the niva.

The old saying is true: In the UK we used to drive on the left of the road, now we drive on whats left of the road.

I'll agree with the Meyle HD parts. The 9-5 i have used to go through droplinks every 6-12 months. Meyle HD now been on for about 10 years and only just needing replacement. The roads round Oxford are generally crap at best as well.

Had a cup of coffee and a chocolate brownie whilst I prepped the new side steps to go on the rangey. Then pressure tested the AC system, found a hole in the condenser, drank more coffee and ate the other 11 brownies in a fit of depression, then...

That ranks up there with "it'll only take 5 minutes"
