What to do...

Hi All,

Have (very) recently bought a 56 plate SE D3, and after I've sorted out a couple of mechanical faults will be starting on the general maintenance and upgrades.

Currently on the list are all the usual mechanical bits, checking bushes and joints, fluid services etc. I need to replace the lock on the not so removable towbar, that required much brute force and ignorance to get it off. And then start sorting out other bits like the lack of a spare key.

I've also been reading up on here about all the possibilities using and IID tool.

So, has anybody got any suggestions for other things I should check sooner rather than later, or useful mods that I should add to the list?

Ta, Joe.

Thanks NJSS, the belts are all due in the not too distant future, so I think I'll save that fun to have all at once! Laughing
