Damn It!

Post by darkphoenix1979 »

OK, fun day to come saturday, got a few probs with the car. As said in a previous post had a knocking at the front end looks like its one of the drop links has failed, got new ones to fit, also want to fit a remote locking kit. But now got a few other niggly bits to do. Got a weird oil leak from the sump plug, bit annoyed as when i did a service 6 months ago put a new washer on, oh well will have a look at the plug and order a new washer, is it worth putting anything on the sump plug like some kind of oil repellent? Also got to take the heater matrix and the dials apart as a couple of bulbs have gone, gonna put some nice blue leds in, so nice busy Saturday ahead.

I take it you mean the heater control unit?

Just be really careful with all screws because the plastics are very brittle by now and where the threads are plastic they'll just crumble. Taking the instrument pod out is pretty quick really.

I wouldn't put anything on the sump plug - new crush washer should do it?
