Oops!
Thought I'd give my car a wash last night as it was a nice night, wasn't too cold, ave it a good wash and polish, only to find that water was pouring in through the back. . . :huh: :huh: :huh: err. . . why?
Had a look, and in my rush to change the back lights back to my m3 style ones i forgot the gaskets, doh!
Put them on and it all sealed up nice, mopped up the mess only to find a strange tank in the back soaked, upon further inspection turns out this was the central locking pump, went to lock the car, alarm was ok but pump had had it. . . GUTTED! so took it out and dried it up a bit. . .

Hahaha RESULT! I love it when a plan comes together, woke up early the next morning, put the newly dried pump back in and hey presto, entrally locked! Went to start the car however and the battery was having none of it, I guess farting about with it for an hour drained it. . . meh well, problem solved and I had another battery fully charged and waiting, PRO!
