Re: and today i have mostly been...
Oh yes of course, sorry. Although the idea of being in a trial would probably give me the jitters... Crossover? I'll take anything with an upright seating position really, the trouble is finding out exactly what has one these days. I'd happily drive a van, maybe a Jumper clone, but I've been outvote...

Re: and today i have mostly been...
Good to hear from you too. Yep, pretty good ta, although you may have missed the above post where I've learned that taking in infinite cats probably isn't such a good idea. Just had my 4th vaccination..... 4th! :shock: Blimey, we've had our 3rd (OG 2 plus the booster) and I thought that was it. Lord...

Re: V6 clutch know how needed
I've no idea myself (the last clutch I did myself was on a mk 4 Cortina ) but I'm sure we have one. Hold on.... Here https://www.406oc.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=8234

Re: and today i have mostly been...
Oh yeah, this is meant to be a car forum... YoyoII was registered last week, that's insurance (pricy) plus "MOT" & tax (not so pricy, the advantages of having a car older than 10 years is, for whatever bizarre reason, we don't get a huge tax bill through the post). Before that it was serviced. This ...

Re: and today i have mostly been...
I'm still horrified it did this, as if people didn't have enough to be sad about already. I should really have included a disclaimer, there are certain risks with taking in what are essentially feral cats (ok the adults probably have owners but they've never been looked after) and there can also be ...

Re: Driver side door sometimes not unlocking from the remote key
when I put my key into car and tried to unlock it unlocks and locks just fine. I suspect that's what Frog means by operating it manually. Hopefully it is just stiff and soaking it in WD (or similar) will sort it out. Other than that the solenoid might be on its way out or there's an electrical faul...

Re: Welly's Fleet extension happened
Ah Welters, good to hear from you me old mucker :cheesy: Sorry to hear of your woes, inflamed trapezoid sounds like a bastard. It's the year of production I'm afraid (and maybe stressful desk-bound job's not done you any favours). Not sure how you did the trapezoid (sneezing perhaps, seems a bit ris...

Maybe the supermarket just wouldn't get out of the way.

Re: Merry Christmas
I think I'm going to go for a peaceful and trouble-free Christmas. I've not given Christmas much though and suddenly it's upon us. Oh dear, no hats, no booze, no decorations, no crackers... So, business as usual here :supafrisk: I asked t'wife what she wanted but she said the new specs I just bought...

Drive-through Sainsbury's opens in Derby
I was thinking "clean-up in aisle 4" but the police already did something similar. Maybe Aldi-Sainsbury's merger?

Re: increase in coolant operating temperature after drain, flush, bleed and refill
Air in the system? Maybe, but if it's only slight it should clear itself. How much coolant are you adding? If the radiator gets hot (i.e. from a cold start) when the engine's idling then the pump should be ok.

Re: increase in coolant operating temperature after drain, flush, bleed and refill
My HDi always sat on the 9 of 90 (the only time it went over was when it was loosing coolant), I suspect the 75 meant your thermostat was stuck partially open and this new one is working how it should.
When you get the low coolant light what is the level like? Is it actually low?
