It was very satisfying smashing the grille with a hammer, I felt like carrying on tbh, it had me slightly annoyed as I couldn't start the planned job until I got the stuck bonnet open.

Is this a hard job to do?
I fancy having the front seats heated.

Probably easier to source some front seats with the elements already fitted.

I did an oil and filter change today, such an easy job normally, not this time tho, sump plug must have been done up with an impact wrench, and guy the gorilla did the oil filter housing up, 😡 why oh why.

Another job tackled successfully and surprisingly no swear words were used.......honestly 😉

My dragon isn’t to bad. Anything I tell her to do, she does as she likes.

Well, I certainly don’t believe that there were no swearing for a start. .I always worry about sump plugs and service items when I buy a car. Glad you got it done ok Dave.
