Well on Friday we went down to an antiques fair at Peterborough and as we came out I saw that I had a puncher in my back wheel so we put some of that tyre sealer and it is supposed to pump it up as well, well it did not, a man came over and asked if he wanted him to change it for me yes please as both of us suffer from bad backs and it would save the aa a trip.
well would you believe it the spare was half flat and it was a Michelin syncrones and the tyre on are latitudes I had for gotten to get a latitude on the spare , I was told there was a quick fit just up the road (3 miles) so we got there and they said it was £26.50p to have a puncher repaired I said ok he looked at it got his tape out and said yes it could be repaired as it was within the limits , but then he noticed the white stuff coming out and he stopped saying they would not repair it, as he said the stuff I had put in would rot the tyre and they wanted nothing to do with it ,BUT he said they had some tyres in that size did I want one I said no telling him that to mix tyres would ruin the vcu diff and ird and on our way we went I was hot as the sun had come out and guess what the sun roof stuck in the vent position now I have had trouble with that sun roof since we had the car and they said it was out of the warranty , so today I took it apart and there is some items missing and broke, so that's what the problem was all the time
so also today I let the LR garage know why it had never worked properly and ordered a latitude tyre of my local tyre place as they fixed the puncher as well (£8.50) I asked about the sealer in it they said no problem. and guess what puncherd the tyre you will never guess so I better tell you it was part of the rear lens of a car that had been in a smash and I had seen on the way there in the morning dark light , one thing I will never ever go to quick fit ever again!
now just got to buy some sunroof parts.
