Just need a T4 session now to get full functionality
Might be worth checking to see if the software that can't be named will install full functionality.

Took the 190 this morning to Tony Banks for a cat-back jobbie, very pleased with the result, I would describe the sound as the right side of cheeky

Oil and filters change today. Repaired the exhaust heat shield that had broken free. While I had the inlet manifold off ('nother story) I noticed the bracket that holds part of the vacuum system had broken so I nicked one off the shares car. Hehehe. And while I was under the car I squirted loads more WD40 around all the stuff that will have to come off when I change the top mounts, drop links and ARB bushes. I'm still finding ways of putting off fitting that lot . Might do the rear lot tomorrow.

Rear ARB bushes and drop links changed. Changed the OSR shocker for a good SH one too. Touch and go for a while: the 6 point 10mm socket started slipping round one of the bolts on the ARB bush bracket. Wouldn't turn either in or out. Had to file it down to fit a 9mm socket in the end. Job done now.

Also fitted a Mondeo lower mount as well yesterday.

Front top mounts, drop links and ARB bushes at the front next week.
