Default Anyone got anyjobs on there cars. ;)

Probe been out of action for a while due too the power steering pump decided too go bang and the hose line that blow which caused the leak and the failure in the first place has been sorted. :mrgreen:

Using it again for a bit just too get everything running and working as these things hate standing for too long.

Got too say Love these cars for what they bring. The focus the cheap and comfortable cruiser great for long journeys and there's my baby V6 A gas guzzling all round fun and enjoyment while listing too those exhaust tunes which never gets boring. :mrgreen:

Anyone got any jobs on there cars or any bits and bobs too sort?
Just need too sort out a leaking sunroof and a oil leak somewhere behind the inlet manifold dripping on the exhaust gives off a burny oily smell.

Not leaking too much just small drips but will need to be sorted before it gets anyworse. :mrgreen:
I'm gunning for the rocker cover gasket at the back, but will see.

Too many jobs to sort Dave, the white one is in the middle of a head gasket replacement, the gold one I have to put back together, Debs V6 needs a new engine and box.

Just got Debs heater working properly in the ZTT, now she wants a FBH fitting ready for winter! And my 1.8t could do with a new set of discs ready for the MOT at the end of the Month.

The Marina needs a new alternator....

I took it out a fortnight ago. About 1/4 of a mile up the road and the charging light came on.
Drove back home and stuck a meter over the battery. No charge......

To make it worse, they've started gritting the roads now so that's probably the last time it will get driven before next April.

Sort the catch tank, get some tyre protectors, lacquer peel front bumper, rear light seals and a piece of trim on the boot! Oh and new badges! ☺

Not on the Rovers but the wife's Twintop is in bits as the interior fan resistor pack needs replacing.


Delivery of new one expected this morning.

On Bones - ABS light, wheel bearing, slight adjustment of the auto box. Oh, and a flappy bit for the passengers sun visor!

On the daily need to check POV and swap air filter plus a general clean up. Paint is poor in a couple of places so will be looked at in Spring. Will cover it in Fusso for the winter.

The TT needs the interior trim putting back in where I had it apart to run cables. Just picked up a set of wheels from the powdercoaters for it so needs tyres swapping over then get them on.

Both cars need an under bonnet clean - both shocking !

I need to get my finger out and call the breakers to come collect the zt and the mini from the runway as I need the room back.

On the remainder of the household cars all 4 are due a service within a few weeks of each other so will start working my way through those over the next few weeks.
