Spending the day with my Son so whilst we were in town I finally got around to getting my flip key cut so I now have a working flip key...

Fitted new (previously loved) driver's door actuator. Not as bad a job as expected.
Replaced missing undertray clips. Removed and cleaned maf and map, for no good reason than it seems a little sluggish off the mark. I #think# it is more responsive now. Fitted new (previously loved) battery cover. Cleaned contacts on airbag connectors under Driver's seat as light has been coming on occasionally (wifey and I moving seat all the time). Checked plenums, no problems. Got to keep on top of these little jobs! Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk

Fitted a genuine front hub pinch bolt.
When I replaced the old arm, the bolt really didn't want to come out. Destroyed it doing so, and had to go to a bolt supplier who came up with a 'by eye' equivalent. Had a knocking from that side which has now been cured by the correct bolt. |

If you follow the excellent how to by Rick-Sta you really cannot go wrong, I fitted mine last Month and had to make a loom up.

Already got most of the loom from a scrap car just need to get round to fitting it.

Went to fit an internal boot switch- no wiring. I'll be wiring that in myself then...
Also started thinking about fitting the towbar I picked up from the scrappy yesterday for a bargain £40; time to get some more heat shrink and solder. |
