Fitted some sound deadening material in the boot of my Mk 2 Fabia vRS.

  • Picked up the new VRS: 2013 Fabia VRS by Graeme_Smith, on Flickr

  • Popped to the garage at lunchtime to swap coolant temp sensor. I don't think it's the problem but it can't hurt. Going to swap O2 sensor later for the spare I have. Went well, all sorted in 5 mins. T

  • modified the cup holder     It's now a hobnob holder

Cleaned it for first time since probably September. Discovering what a shocking state the paint is in on the under sills. Looks like part of my week off in April will be having it in a bodyshop to get them sprayed up. :x  

I wonder how many skodas were washed this weekend?

I did a wash, clay and Polish. I have one irritant though. The beading is that good that once I have hosed it down, it's a nightmare to dry! Was also difficult today to find enough shade!

filled it up with diesel........yeah im boring  :happy:

Was yesterday but gave it a proper wash, couldn't be bothered to wax it... fitted new valve caps (black plastic jobby's) and wheel stickers... next weekend may even get a chance to fit my 2013 badges!

 

Needs to go to the garage first to get the aux belt replaced as it squeals like a pig in an abattoire!

Had it serviced, including DSG oil change and detailed the car for the first time since I bought it over a year ago.

Washed it before nightshift then drove to aberdeen for work :(

I blasted around brands hatch for the day :)

Considered washing it however the problem child needed me more. I don't know who is responsible for the wiring in the engine bay but when I find them i'll skin them, cut random nerves, splice some others together and push everything back together in the same haphazard manner. 

Went today and got me fabia done on a Corghi 4 wheel alignment! Yes i know there is no adjustment on the rear but the results were good. But the only thing that got me sweating was those sensors thingy's that literally clamp onto to your rims with metal clamps so to speak ....ffs iv only had me new rims on a couple of weeks so my A.hole was puckered up so tight that you couldn't put a neddle up it, and to add insult to injury they got the apprentice to fit them but not to do the alignment adjustment , thank feck.

Yesterday I refitted the bottom grill to the front bumper after a kamikaze pheasant knock it out while driving along the A84 towards Comrie. Car 1 - Pheasant 0.

Today swapped front wheels to back and vice versa and drove it like I stole it

Took the car to a local bodyshop to get a quote to repair my monte...

£300 Cried...

 

Then got a quote from a mobile repair chap. £100 less. Cool...

 

Now in the dilemma of paying £100 extra for someone whos work I have seen before and was fine.

Or pay £100 less for someone I have no recommendation from.

Had to go to the kebab shop to collect dinner, so grabbed the keys to Mrs T's Fabia and took it for a spin.

Gave the new RARB a workout last night on a familiar twisty with no traffic about. Even more impressed how much better the handling is, though it highlights the problem of electro hydraulic power steering's lack of feel.

Oh a pic of alloys. Need to get a refurb, hopefully do that this year. Maybe.

Cleaned the inside, debating whether I clean the outside or pay someone else to do it

Hehe, going to do it Friday, did jobs around the house today

drove it to Halfords to get some interior cleaner. and as it's 3 for 2 on car cleaning, also got some AG shampoo and some Demonshine snow foam. and some cloths. and a microfibre noodle sponge.

Cruised along at a steady 65 in the crisp spring sunshine this afternoon :D 

Give the wee lady a good wash n wax.

Got a mate to order brakes and pads from tps, which was cheaper than euro car parts.

Sometimes it's a case of not what you know but who you know.
