Got the 110 in for it's annual prod and poke today. Not heard from the garage, so hopefully all is well.... can't find a nailbiting emoticon!
I usually get complaints from them that it's left oil all over their floor!! I noticed the front diff pinion seal is now weeping too.... so another spot on their floor!
Got them to do the poly bushes in the A frame while they are at it. Couldn't shift the bolts for love nor money!

PASSED :shock: :shock:
Just a couple of advisories (if that's a word!).
The steering arm ball joint has play in it. It was bought ready fitted to a new arm less than 3 months ago :shock: The quality of some products these days is dreadful. I seem to go through UJ's like they are going out of fashion too. And I'm on my 3rd clutch master cylinder in as many years.... and I always by genuine or OE spec (Lemforder, Lucas, etc).
He had a lovely time with the A frame though :twisted: Couldn't get the bolts out at all. And the bracket fixings were so corroded they weren't even hexagonal any more! Can you imagine how hot and bothered he got with a hammer and chisel yesterday??? :lol: Still, I know him well, and he's a diamond bloke who loves his Land Rovers.
He did suggest that I should use their lift and hot wash to clean the clay off the rear of the chassis. Then spray old engine oil to slow the corrosion down. Such a nice bloke. Although I suspect he just wanted to see me covered in mud and c**p this time!!
