I think some of the aftermarket cheap versions have questionable O rings. Go for a good brand and you should get the correctly sized rings included. What make filter did you buy?

Wow.

Inside it works just fine. I’ll maybe have a crack this weekend, after the tyre fitting.

I tend to never turn it off - just use the main stat to control the CH on-off as needed. It’s normally set at 20, which gives a nice comfortable and steady temp in the house for everyone. There is a method in this approach… wimmins never seem to be able to understand how a thermostat works, and...

Yep - got the rear one in the box 👍 The passenger front has decided to play about intermittently and not lock/unlock on the fob. The rest seem fine atm.

IIRC, cup holders on top do have to come out (screws below?) as @kernowsvenski says. centre console slides back with screws out from rear of it around handbrake, and 1 each side in the front footwells. You have to shimmy the gear lever surround up and out of the way. Sounds hard, but it is...

Have you checked / cleaned the drains that run down the A pillar?

Erm, no thanks! :vb-groan2:

I bought the spanner before the F2!

Although the ‘book’ says to not use any grease, I put a smear of silicone grease on the new ARB bushings I just installed, after cleaning the bar to within an inch of its life and rust-treating it (there was only a few tiny patches). Silicone grease is great for rubber, and should help prevent...

I have the SE, which at the time missedthe arm rests, full leather (mine has half) and I think a different audio system, though the one in mine is very capable indeed, with a large sub-woofer in the back. CD’s sound superb in it, with no distortion. Mine is a ‘08 but a very comfy and fun car to...

Looks good 👍

Had hand-made (still warm) Cornish pasties and chips for lunch (wiv brown sauce) Naughty, but nice.

Pics?

Decided against it - only had a couple of hours today, and looking at the job, it’s another PITA! I’ll save it for when I have a whole weekend… just in case!
