I would agree auto is better but I don't have the loom fitted so manual is better than nothing

After reading about plenums on here when I first got my 75 back in April I checked and found about an inch of water, so I used a pipe bending spring to unblock the drain. Finally got round to doing the spyhole mod today and was surprised to find that it was as dry as a bone in there. Need to get another grommet though, as the one I bought doesn't have a big enough gap between top and bottom for the thickness of the plastic cover.

After all the effort I went through fitting the Revotec fan I have today fitted the MG6 ATC upgrade from Mat. Took about 2 minutes. Looks good with the bigger display, and easier to see what's selected.

Today is removing the wheels with bald tyres from the Classic CDT and putting my crowns on with Winter tyres as they have only done a few thousand miles. Also removed boot carpet and brushed up a dust pan of sand, plaster and debiris from the boot and spare wheel well. Have removed the space saver and put a crown with legal tyre in it's place.

Found the O/S/R brake pad wear sensor was uncliped and rubbing on the inner rim so secured it in place.

Hmmm don't know but I do have one in the garage waiting to be fitted. Bought it for TGB and never got around to fitting it so looks like the Classic CDT will get it.
