Had another leak off connection pop yesterday so stumped up the 90 odd quid for a genuine LR part , hope that's the end of it , ive read it can lead to swapping injectors if it persists but its always been a different injector each time its happened so fingers crossed for this fix

I’ve been Quite productive since being furloughed.
New battery fitted this week due to poor starting. Nipped our and had the tracking sorted so it no longer tried to throw me in the hedge.
Tried to remove the tow bar and snapped the only key so a quick butchers at YouTube had me back in the game and the locking handle removed ready to go in the bin, stripped cleaned and greased up the tow bar itself so it’s ready to go back in once a new lock arrives.
Besides that it’s been diy job after diy job so no time to do anything else yet

Put some new front fogs on... from powerful Uk and replaced the mud flaps with some from Tuff-rok
Both extremely easy to install...the mud flaps took a little to work out but then bingo! On In a flash.

Forgot to mention Had a look under the disco yesterday and found a bit of flaking on the rear cross member so attacked it with a wire brush, then applied some multi purpose grease to the area to seal it for the time being till I can get some dinitrol ordered to do the whole chassis, also did the same with the sill edges more for protection as there is no rot yet that I can see on there

Although I like what they’ve set them selves up as I prefer subtle things personally on cars rather than having the brand name emblazoned on the new product, else I’d have a pair of their mud flaps myself

At least previously it was possible to get tuffroks with a oval logo and completely without. Try inquiring?
