Fitted a set of new take off boosts and conti's ... Got a euro trip coming up
Billberried the SVX alloys, that stuff is good! I managed to get some new nano wax from BMW - I can confirm it works on land rovers too |

Eric - it's the name of the alloy wheel cleaning liquid I use, Billberry. Spray on, wait 5 mins, wash off and they look like new

^^ I see, first was thinking of hillbillies or so and couldn't figure it out.
 Think my car wash does the same thing.

Not today but yesterday...
Journey back to my parents to use the workshop for a engine oil change. All fluids checked and topped up with only the rear diff needing a small top up. Props were greased again and all bulbs checked. My passenger side headlight had stopped working so I assumed it was the bulb, took it apart (which with the light guards is a bit more involved...) and inexplicably started working again, couldn't find the fault, so put it back together. Also adjusted the rear drum brakes because they were feeling a bit slack. They have 2 adjusters on them, one ether side and I couldn't figure out which did which so I adjusted them both and have now got a good brake effort again with no rubbing or hot brakes so can only assume its done correctly? Any pointers would be good
Also fitted a dash cam hard wire kit which has freed up my cigar lighter socket again. Simple kit from Halfords just the usual headache of taking the dash apart and the radio out. Then gave the underside a good pressure wash to get rid of all the salt, mud and road muck accumulated over the winter and then drove back home for dinner. Nice to have a day doing routine stuff sometimes  Running Restoration Thread http://www.defender2.net/forum/post323197.html#323197
