bally4563 Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 Read bottom control arms done this morning ( coffin arms) Managed to snap the bracket for the height sensor, brittle as anything, so need to find another one , there’s enough left on to secure with a tie wrap , or alternatively enough left to drill and secure with a self tapper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bally4563 Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 Just had a 4 wheel alignment at MVH in Cheshire, on it for a 11/2 hr before they were happy, asked the Tec after he finished and was paid for, could he code the rain wiper sensor in , he says not sure , explain they all have them fitted , just needs coding, anyway he had a look and loh! And behold sensors work !! He said he was x wilmslow OPC tec, and didn’t know that could be done. Anyway I got it for free and I reckon it will be another service they will be offering!!

Withy Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 Because of the wind/storms, car cover has been used, but the other night when Isha was at her worst the back end of the cover was flapping about in a most unruly fashion, which I sorted (mostly) with some string as a temp measure. The 2 underbody strap are secure/tight but the back end wasn’t playing nice. Since Jocelyn is coming, I ordered some bungee cords to make it better, and have carefully tethered / looped around wheels to keep the back end secure. Probably just the orientation of the car to the way the wind arrives, but it’s much better now anyway (so far) yes, yes I know I should just clear out the garage 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
