Had a long list and some spare time today...
First the good...
1. Cleaned idle stabilisation valve. Idles a little better now
2. Cleaned my Jetex panel filter
3. Changed the plates as the old ones were damaged. Pleased to see no rust at all under the rear plate!
Now the bad...
4. Jacked it up to change the DTM back and centre silencer for genuine VAG ones, only to find a full custom system fitted. Need a downpipe and front silencer now!
5. Tried to fit new a new heater cable. Got one clip off the old one. Cursed. Cursed some more. Got the other clip off. Cursed again. Fed the new cable through. Cursed some more... you get the picture... Took about two hours until I got it 'close enough'. Those clips are a pig.
6. While half the dash was in pieces I decided to go the whole way and try to fix my rev counter. Turns out the clocks have gone. At least I managed to break the remote central locking in the process!
