Good work. Yesterday I received a Bluetooth cassette adapter (who knew?) which does work ok, sound quality isn’t great but for £20 better than nothing. It also has a mic so hands free calls work too. It will do for now.

Happy days, yeah that is down side of the Grom, it certainly was not £20.00. Cant go wrong with the good old simple solutions. 2003 VW Golf V6 4motion

My eldest decided to sit on the lower tailgate this morning, which was followed by a loud bang as the left hand tailgate wire broke. On inspection it was very rusty at both fixing points. I’ve a new pair coming tomorrow so look forward to sorting that out.

The headlining has just started to sag too, so off to Nationwide for a new one....

🤒 bit of an oil leak has developed. I’ve done quite a few miles (relatively) over the last few weeks, and pushed her on a bit (80+). Hopefully nothing serious....

Oil leak wasn't an oil leak but a clip on the hose from the power steering pump, nice and simple. However, whilst coming back from London last week she threw an ABS / Traction fault on the M40. I'm hoping it is just a wheel sensor giving up the ghost. Taking her to be plugged in tomorrow so hopefully will find out what is going on then. Oh, and the roof lining, which is unmarked, has started to sag quite badly. Time for a trip to Nationwide Trim..

Through another MOT, a couple of advisories which I’ll sort out in due course. I’ve taken a punt on a secondhand microswitch for the drivers door to see if it sorts the intermittent central locking cycle. Fingers crossed. 🤞

Time to push on with the refurb now. She is in at the moment for a replacement internal temp fan, a service and investigation of the ABS / Traction control light. It is showing there is a short, which means it can only be a new ABS ECU....£700+vat, but I've ordered a second hand unit. Fingers crossed.

Then she is off to Malvern in Feb for the bodywork, wheels and calipers to be done. Not cheap but I'm confident it will be a cracking job.

Any suggestions where to start with aircon leaking? It was tested before being re-gassed and worked well for a couple of months but then was no longer cold. Any help appreciated
