Thank you all for your responses. I can’t feel any difference when braking to be honest. I will get it booked in.

Hi guys, I keep getting these warning lights. They don’t always come on but usually every other day or so. What is it likely to be?

No I think that’s the issue. It won’t come out of reverse without a wiggle.

Gearbox oil drained and replaced. Easy enough job with a long reach funnel. Gear changes are a really smooth so happy with that. Still getting an issue where it doesn’t disengage reverse correctly so I have to wiggle the reverse mechanism and the gear knob to put it into first.

Butyl tape has arrived but doesn’t look like it’s needed. Had a lot of rain these last few days and under the seats are dry 🙌🏻 Looks like everything you guys suggested previously worked it just too longer than I thought to dry. Thank you all 👍🏻

Okay thanks I’ll get them both ordered.

I have used Gtechniq, so C4 it is. What can I use for the interior trim as it’s faded to a bluey colour.

What is the best product to restore the black plastic on the car?

Thanks all. Hopefully I don’t get any on the floor. Rather not smell cat piss / dog s**t every time I go to the garage.

I have just bought a new washer. Need to check I’ve got a square 8mm bit for the washer itself otherwise that’s will need to be ordered as well.

First time of doing this on any car. What do I need? Purchased:- - Elf NFX 75W-80 (apparently replaced NFJ & NFP) - 3 litres - Funnel kit with long tubing - Oil pan Do I need anything else and any tips and tricks?

I think I can rule that out. If it was to come from the rear door cards I think it would be leaking into the rear footwell but it’s only under the seats.

Feel free to shoot me down but as one of the firsts steps I cleared all the crap out of both front arch liners. Could there be a similar build up behind the side skirts forcing the water in through a seal or something similar?

By the condition of the aerial I’m confident it’s not that. Butyle tape ordered.

@Chocice was the base of you aerial noticeably lose? Mine seems to be tightly fitted with a timy bit of movement if I properly try to move it. I would assume it’s fine as I was expecting to find it lose enough for water to be able to get in.
