Investigate further what's causing the excessive damp first. I say that as I reckon with that small dehumidifier you'll be fighting a losing battle and more than likely you may need two or three of them. From my experience you really need a mains powered dehumidifier - if possible consider getting one and running an extension lead to it. It can be left powered on 24/7 and set to your specific requirements with the drain tube exiting via a closed door.
Try using talcum powder inside the boot floor, back panel and quarter panels, if there's leaks you'll get see where it's coming from as the water removes the powder. Also it might be worth applying something like 303 Rubber Seal conditioner. Another thing you could do is rotate the boot seal 180 degrees, that might create a better seal.

Yep, I've been using it over the last few months, both the oil and the primer. Can't tell you how good it is as the car hasn't been out of the garage yet. I did use just the oil it on twenty year old rusty brake dust shields and I'm very impressed. It does flow very,very easily and the primer even more so. Drying time for the oil in these winter months is two days and almost the same for the primer. Here you go, right up your street ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) , Viva-Lanica! Some of the guys use it there. www.viva-lancia.com/lancia_fora/read.php?10,4623,4623#msg-4623 I'm only getting a big list of loads of threads.... Copy & paste this link. www.viva-lancia.com/lancia_fora/read.php?10,4623,4624

Here's some info if you haven't already read it. www.rust.co.uk/owatrol-oil/p513014#Note, it can be used in cavities before waxing but you'll ideally need the spray can product rather than the 1lt tin.

£550 tax bracket to for the mps, the only reason I haven't got one. I would have considered the car's valve for money offsets the higher tax bracket?

This is a very interesting thread - like it.
Six grand max for saloon that's mental quick? Some obscure JDM model may be? I really can't think of anything off hand but I'm looking forward to hearing about your purchase. Good luck in the hunt.

I didn't realise the Audi five pots were expensive. Times have changed...
There is a lot to be said about S/C'ing your current engine and you're possibly right the M62 is a bit overkill as they were designed for bigger engines, I think Eaton quoted 2.5-4.0lt. But I'd still look into the M62 as Merc used them to very good effect on there M111 2.0 & 2.3. Also the 62 should create less heat than the 45 for the same pressure. Either way I'm sure your current engine would be a cracking motor with an S/C.

That's the one that I always fancied in a 924. Anyway, keep up the good work.
