Massive crud behind arch liner!
« on: 13 October 2009, 17:55 »
Just popped a look behind the front arch liner to find a HUGE amount of mud, leaves and crappo!  This is an expensive trip to the bodyshop waiting to happen!

Seems potentially a common problem.  Couldn't find the post, but I'm sure I read someone else had removed their arch liner to find similar.  Get behind yours asap and scoop out all that compost!

I had assumed because water spilled out the drain meant it was all good.  For the sake of 5 mins with a torx bit and a little poke about, daft to not get on it!

Wish I'd got a photo of it all now.  All that weight reduction, It'll do my mpg good too!   :grin:

Yes mate!  Did you post these recently?

I've now put my special compost to good use on the veggie plot.
