Thought I'd share this Sundays activities with you....
Me and the old man spent 4 hours + under the rear of the car changing shocks and ARB bushes and (trying) to get the control arms off! We mamanged everything bu the arms. Those bushes are really a nightmare, the clips are almost impossible to get off.
Anyway, after we clean up and put the tools away, I jump in the car to head off to my own house...I trun the key....click....nothing...
What have I done? The lights/radio/all electrics are working so I think, uh oh.... I've severed some really important cable under the car and ****ed the engine! We bump start it in the street and I park up leaving it running while we have a look and think...
I then get in to check the electrics again and when I'm done, guess what I do? Correct! I turn it off...ooops!
Can't bump it again for love nor money and now its getting darker. Got the jump leads out after checking the forum and realising that the battery may have gone. Can't jump it from my old mans avensis so I'm now sure the starters kaput
The wife has AA cover but the only problem is that she needs to be with the car (its personal cover not vehicle...nightmare I know). So I phone her and she has to get the wee one (who's just about ready for bed) to come round to my old mans gaff so the AA will come out. We've only got one car so my old man goes to collect her and bring her back. On the way back....HE GETS PULLED BY THE FUZZ FOR JUMPING A RED LIGHT!
