What have you done to your MK 7 today ?

[GTD1414]

Just realised after 18 months there is a way on the sunroof button to tilt it only. Facepalm.

I used to unlock the car by holding down the fob so windows down and sunroof would go into tilt positon, the get inside and put the windows back up.

Cleaned it in readiness for it's first service on Friday

Looks great Kalimon! Hope they treat it with the care it deserves.

Thanks Watts.
Hopefully no one will need to get chinned

That is funny

Turned the soundaktor back on and then turned it off again a few miles later

Bought some cleaning bits in advanced of getting it detailed next week. It goes in Wednesday and I pick it up on Saturday so you can bank on the weather being crap in the west midlands.

Also noticed that with the CRD3+ tuning box the mpg is over reading by 8mpg as opposed to just 1mpg without.

A win win day then

Managed to give my squeaky door seal a coating of krytox which was very kindly posted to me by watts, top man, thanks very much again.

Had my car serviced at Inchape Bolton today.
Impressed with the service and really liked the inspection video taken from underneath the car that I was sent.
The video showed very clearly that I had nail in my front drivers side tyre.
They asked me if I wanted them to repair it for £15 all in and I said to go ahead.
You guessed it, they scratched my Austin alloy
I could have taken it somewhere else to have the tyre repaired I suppose but they may very well have damaged the wheel as well.
I'm now waiting for the dealers response to the situation.

Two options only really, a new wheel or a refurb at a place of your choice(ask here for options) but Lepsons seem to be the place to go. Either way they will need to be a diamond cutting outfit. Stand firm and don't take crap from them.

Nothing to the car, but a new home provided for stuff to aid its upkeep!

New detailing storage shed built and populated! 

 

Dave's handy work?

No, got a professional in to do it, Dave knows his limits.   Was built by proper carpenter and his mate, who turned out is massively into detailing, so we had a lots of chats whilst the carpenter did all the work, lol.  It was supposed to be a new garden shed to replace our old one, but when I saw it half built, I hatched an evil plan to have it for my own.
