The aux belt turned to shreds last night. I'm guessing the timing belt isn't far off. I had them replaced about 70k miles ago, so I guess it's time it's done again!

How about you?

Fiero's sun roof appears to leak intermittently, so after the downpour last night the roof lining was a bit wet. Have to have a look at that.

Firebird's sat under cover at the moment but I'm still really undecided what to do with it. Booked in for a full day of rolling road tuning next week though.

Idly been browsing the classifieds today for ZR1s, Maserati 3200s, other M5s, few Supras... Few things have interested me.

Figured out I have an aux heater, pleased.

the loaner Peugeot partner I have is trying its best to become a super leggera variant by shedding various bits of trim

Yeh you're right. Let's not discuss motors in the motors forum because that'd be a novel idea :eek:

Just checked on my car, its ok and hasn't moved a inch since 30min ago when i checked on it.

My wiper arm on my Clio snapped randomly on Wednesday, currently waiting for a new arm as scrapyards don't have any.

Imagine having to make a thread just for a subject you feel merits a discussion! :eek:

My HVAC unit is slowly dying on me. Ordered a wiper puller tool off eBay so I can finally replace the bugger.

It only plays up in cold, wet weather though which is why I haven't replaced it yet.
Have had a replacement unit sitting in the garage for almost a year now.

The car has decided to back up my thoughts on it getting to the age where a suspension overhaul would help it by knocking and banging from the front end - looks like ill need to do some work on it in the freezing cold afterall....in a month or so

Touche

Okay. Can I rename this thread to "Aux belt decided to die. I just thought I'd let you know"

What was the deal with DM? Did he turn out to be a fake non-millionaire? Did he bum Joshy?

Apart from that, the OT Motors thread was bloody useful!

But a new one would just be filled with fauxhawk filling it up with pictures of a crappy lease car.
