Re: DozeyDustman's Fleet update.

Given the age of the 106/Saxo chassis I think they are the lighter car. My C2 is the 1.4HDi

Now I’ve finished my self isolation because covid, I got some winter tyres fitted to the C2. I picked up a set of OEM alloys from F***book marketplace for pennies, which were fitted with some god awful linglongs or something. Scooped up some correct size part worn winter boots on eBay also for penni...

Re: DozeyDustman's Fleet update.

The dodgy copies of diagnostic software work best on an old XP machine. Just don't use the laptop for anything else. I have a few laptops that just have diagnostics on and nothing else. Also turn off the wi-fi before using them as you don't want them connecting to the net and updating as it can cau...

Re: DozeyDustman's Fleet update.

I’ve managed to procure a Lexia & Diagbox for the C2. Having trouble getting it to run without an antivirus warning and my Win7 system having a strop. The mini needed a couple CV joints for its MoT. And it may need a battery soon, and a pair of front dampers for next MoT. Haven’t done much motor...

Earlier this week I fitted a new exhaust to the C2 as the old system was proper rotten. image.thumb.jpg.a2fffdc56df012f3aecf0bd9b68a346b.jpg Middle section was an eBay parts gamble but thankfully fitted fine and the only difference being the shape of the hanger brackets. image.thumb.jpg.c0a0d23200bc...

Re: DozeyDustman's Fleet update.

To be fair Mercrocker I have been a member since mid 2019, but I mainly lurked as I followed threads which continued here. I’m going to be dual nationality from now, as there are good folk on both fora. I met up today with a dozen or so beige personnel, some are also lurkers/posters on here and once...

DozeyDustman's Fleet update.

Since this forum started, Family Dustman has changed his fleet in its entirety. The doom blue Saab diesel estate failed its MoT quite spectacularly in mid 2019, mainly bunged up emissions gear & broken swirl flaps. A new exhaust manifold, an exhaust section, CV boot and an ABS ring were required...
