Hi Miguel,
Sorry to have avoided your posts about the footie .... no, in England we really do not still say 'soccer'
;-)
I believe it all starts this Friday, so will be following how things go. We have quite a world-wide representation on this site, so should be interesting...
Anyway, update on my car re. oil leaks. After the shock of learning about the unexpected repairs, I have again spoken with my mechanic and the conclusion is a little more encouraging:
- The A-frames do need doing, so my wallet will be £550 lighter! My geometry is all good and he will recheck it after the work.
- the leaks on oil pipes are very light- he used the word 'sweating' rather than leaking, so that can wait (a long time I hope - at £470!)
- Rear discs just 'ridged' rather than corroded, so again, wait for a while.
- Power steering seals- again keep an eye on, but review at next service.
so, all in all, not bad at all....
PS: I need all my money for the paintshop at the end of the month remember!
