Puncture last night after work....

Nah, used the weak scissor jack in the hole in chassis..

Think I just need to remove wheel again, check for anything untoward then replace...

Bugggggerrrrrooooo!

Another victim of LR making the jack fit in the compressor cover !!!!
At least I never placed it there, although I should have checked...man who helped me change wheel did it.... Big Cry Big Cry


Will need another compressor bracket at least, and hopefully just reseating connections.

Blanked EGRs

Had the EGRs blanked.

Can't say I notice much difference in the driving (they weren't faulty) but drove 70 miles last night of varied driving and recorded 34.4mpg!

I've never, ever seen that above 28 before Very Happy
