and I am going to spend the afternoon looking at my b27 lump with a coffee and a fag wishing it would work. I think the harder i stare at it, with a really evil look, it might even start to work....worth a try.

Repositioned the "M" grille badge after Barry said it was wrong
Then took the covers off and gave it a coat of Meguair's gold class liquid wax.

Few small bits of pealing underseal repaired with 3M08537 thanks to the bottom of my arch liner going MIA. New one purchased from Adi on here and will be fitted in due course.
MOT prep completed as that is due shortly - hopefully it will sail through as usual. My only concern is my exhaust silencer. It's beginning to look a bit marginal around where the brackets are fitted but appears to be OK. I'll probably be ordering an Eberspacher replacement from ECP just in case as it will no doubt need changing soon. It helps they've got 25% off at the moment!

Once again stood in garage looking at eibach springs on floor next to e30. Even though I can't wait to drive it with them fitted, they are still sat there.............it's too cold.
Most likely the boot lid seal Jim if it's filling up while stood overnight.jimbom30cab wrote:Stood for 10 mins in the p1ssing rain trying to work out where the mini swimming pool in the boot well is self filling from.... no idea...... so back to COD Ghosts.
I spent ages trying to source mine. Turned out that the aerial is meant to have a drain pipe on it. Fitted one, fed it through the vent in the pocket and voila, no more water.mcbonio wrote:Most likely the boot lid seal Jim if it's filling up while stood overnight.jimbom30cab wrote:Stood for 10 mins in the p1ssing rain trying to work out where the mini swimming pool in the boot well is self filling from.... no idea...... so back to COD Ghosts.
