Short update on things. Some good, some not so good
The aircon now works, I really did not expect it to happen so I'm pretty happy. My mates garage run some tests on the system and re-gassed, now fully working. Such a surprise.
Since getting the car I could sometimes smell exhaust fumes. Turns out there was a hole on top of the section just before the back box. New centre section and backbox installed.
I had a leak in the passenger footwell which I just couldn't sort during all that rain. Turns out the sunroof drain was completely blocked so it appears to have stopped.
Steering wheel was very slightly out of centre, sorted. I should have left it for all it was but I just cant, ocd or something.
Water temp gauge was a bit random on occasions, wiring/connectors cleaned up and it seems to be back to normal.
Fitted some nightbreakers which has improved the headlights quite a bit.
Tomorrow I'll be aiming to clean the leather up with some stuff the girlfriend has for horse leather, seems to do well on car seats too. Likewise I have some metal polish for the wheels to just bring some brightness back to them.
I have a small issue with the parking brake light not going off when it is. I think the spring has lost some of its pull on the mechanism, so thats on the list too.
