Few bits been arriving in the post for the car...
New Condenser, Drier, Oil & Fuel filters and Rear Bump Stops.
Did the condenser and drier today....
Crash bar and front panel off, condenser disconnects from the radiator by 4 screws and a couple underneath. Quite time consuming as you need to be both careful and methodical.
Got it all back together, just needs to be re-gassed now. Then had a complete nightmare. Went shopping and got back, thought I would just pop the bonnet to check everything is ok... Nothing.
Little did I know that when you take off the front panel, the cable is prone to coming away from the mountings, making the cable useless.
Bumper off again, Intercooler and slam panel off again, engine under tray off. 3 hours later after some help from the father-in-law and he managed to get it popped open from under the car. 5 mins later it was back together and sorted out... Lesson learned!!
Mini service next and replace the bump stops before MOT.
