Disco 2 Oh dear paying for repairs, but preferable option.

Well I hope it is worth it.

Been ill, well enough to sit at a desk and code but anything strenuous forget it..

Just really heavy colds.

Also been doing overtime so no Saturdays.

I thought I would rather spend a Saturday writing weird stock systems than get wet and cold trying to remove a rusted up bumper.

So yes into a garage.

One near work the to55er does not do LR products anymore as they were too difficult. So found a local LR specialist hidden away.

Anyway it may cost a bit, but for me it is best option.

Why do they always have issues when you can't fix them?

Still have air springs and 3 Amigos mod for when weather is better.

If you can earn more than the garage charges I can't blame you

I've given up scrambling about in the gutter under a Disco, but I can still fix things standing up!

Last time I was under I was doing the ACE repair

Good call, its best to pick you fights with car repairs - you don't want to rush it or be resenting doing it as you'll only stuff it up. Just think of all the money you've saved on the repairs you have done yourself.
I went for the 'wet & cold' option today and replaced my air springs. But then I don't have a cold! Went a lot better than I thought it might and the metal behind them is still solid, which is nice. And now it's no longer sitting with its arse on the ground like a dog with an itchy bum.

Think how much I saved doing the ACE repair, and injector washers.

This is for you, every job is stood up. Also when not fixing cars you have an awesome spit roast

But it's a real trial trying to check the oil level in the engine with that!

Oh dear, in overnight, waiting on parts.

All 4 drop links gone (were new last year)

I was asked.

"Were they Britpart?"
"Yes"
Lesson learnt

All 4 drop links, repaired washer bottle, rear pads, track control arm, MOT

But the ACE light came on and they do not know the system so did not want to break it.

I think dislodge cable but not sure
