The dog rough estate

[DeeTurbo]

Mine just annoys me as I keep thinking it's going to fail.

Guess what... I've found more things wrong.

Looks like the heater matrix is leaking, I found the passenger carpet wet and had that coolant smell.
The thermostat housing is still leaking even though I replaced the top and the gasket.
I've also found rust above the NSR wheel arch.

I think the water coming from the rear was ether coming from a badly installed rear light cluster or a badly routed cable for the trailer socket.

I've reseated the light cluster and sealed up the hole that the cable came through.

Today I've also had a look at the squealing heater motor.

I keep saying I'm not going to do any more on this car but I just can't help myself.

Sealed up this bung and around the cable


I was tapping the rust with a screw driver and the first place I tapped the screw driver went straight through. I've just used duct tape over it for now to stop the water getting in but I will be cutting a section out of a car out the scrap yard and welding that in soon.
