I kid you not, today I received my wiper blades from that well known South America rainforest company.

Aye, found that out just b you posted, I'll keep these for future use on my aero wipers, these one of these were for my lads car but hey ho..
 
Today I'm a happy boy, my Crystal blue TDI has passed its MOT with not even a single advisory :) It's now getting its brake fluid replaced along with its service, this was the last remaining one of the 'periodically replace' consumable items to be done since my ownership. So hopefully it will be good for a few more years yet.

Since WOM did the clutch and suspension just before lockdown, it's been the sweetest thing to drive. We took it for our week round Cornwall in August and it was a little star, not a moment's concern nor a beat missed. Not bad for 18½ years old ?

Was this the car you’d been considering selling? If so it’s now probably on best behaviour ??
 
No, the one I was selling was my Cobalt one. That's going up to WOM shortly for injector replacement with new seals. Its MOT isn't due until December, once it's got another one it will most likely be back up for sale, perhaps in the Spring. Meanwhile my Storm is currently in WOM for various works, including an MOT since it's on a Covid extension at the moment.

Ah! Crystal and Cobalt. Two lovely shades of blue sir. Rob will be giving you your own ramp at this rate! ?
 
Just replaced both rear strut top mounts, since I hadn't done so when I did the dampers themselves (xmas 2017 I think). Won't make the mistake of doing them separately ever again - it takes exactly 0 seconds more work to replace the mounts as well (unless you count tearing open a plastic bag). Now the dampers, springs, and top mounts are all fairly new on all four corners.
 
Pass Katsastus (MoT up here) with no comments apart from "passenger side headlight is a little high" and "good condition". He even knew how to take the bonnet off and put it back (!).
No more EGR errors, either, so I think we're pretty good for a while. The weekend should see the radio, speakers and amps in...

Evening Bob,

I have a 193G in Project OEM. It was to replace the Symphony that was in it when I purchased it from you.

I have an Audi Bluetooth Module, Audi Media Interface and an Arduino unit connected to it. The RNS-E is running the latest firmware from PCBBC (FW270).

If you have any questions please do just ask sir. I’m always happy to help.

Kind regards,

Tom

Hi Tom,

I fully intend to take you up on that and was half way through composing you a PM asking for a shopping list for the install!! ?

I’ve got the small matter of changing the intercooler on Tonka 1st though!

Thanks

Many thanks Tom. Will dig mine out when I have time. I thought 193G could give issues. I have a 193B in Jelly but need Audi BT module coding in to give hands free.
