Also, don't they put that stuff in diesel that stops waxing when the weather is cold? That's gotta kill mpg. I only got 22mpg on the motorway Saturday!!
It a 2019 bit it's only the weeny 1.6 engine. The fact I have been carrying a sofa in the back for the past week as it's the only dry place to store it while my conservatory is built has nothing to do with it

I've a leak in the passenger headlight and an MOT next month so I'm adding some sealant to the housing. Hopefully does the trick.
Can't put it back on until tomorrow as it takes 24 hours for the silicon sealant to cure.

Well not a good day for me the drivers side engine mount failed so engine dropped and ripped aux belt off and the mount went through the timing belt cover and shredded half the belt luckily it didnt snap otherwise it would have been game over. The bang it made as the pullys hit the chasis leg scared the life out of me.
Hopefully not the garage are checking it all over but things are looking good think i had a very lucky escape tht i was only doin 30 when it happened and not on the motorway otherwise it could have been a whole lot worse
Had a go at taking apart one of my rear lights, it was leaking water quite badly and had built up grime and mold over the years.
Getting it apart was pretty easy as the old glue had degraded.
As for resealing, I think it will do the job but I'm not all that happy with how it looks.
Im going to have a look into some restoration tutorials, otherwise I'll find a replacement. Intrigued as to how they where sealed at the factory.

Well its needed new engine mount and all bolts timing belt auxiliary belt all tensioners new belt covers new turbo pipework as some got squashed and bent full service plus the cost for recovery. Wasnt the cheapest but atleast its all sorted
Glad you got it sorted. Yeah, I was adding up in my head as I was reading your list and thinking *eek*.
Was going to change the disks and pads all round but decided it was too cold so took it to the garage as they would also bleed the brakes. Good thing I did as one of the rear calipers was seized so they also replaced this while they were at it, I would of been pulling my hair out trying to push the piston back in
