Garage!..somethings wrong?

by lammy » Fri Sep 03, 2010 3:36 pm

Dropped my car into the garage thismorning at 9.15am...(never used it before, but does high spec cars..)..I believe I have asmall water leak (believed from pump..thats only a year and a half old)..and a petrol leak at the front end...rang them and asked how its going?..guy said I just check the job sheet with the lad?...(I was told they'd check it and ring me before any work was carried out)...

Well just got the call...No coolant leak found?..(I had topped it up with 2 litres of water a week ago!!) and then it sort of held onto it?..possibly escaped through the header tank overflow after a blast? as it is running high pressure apparently?..i'll leave that for now...

Petrol leak from back of block..pipe rubbing on something and leaking....Will get this done.

F/O/S brake pipe leaking..rubbing on something?..will get this done.

Brakes all round not at their best!..tyres wearing?....Ah well i'll start saving...

Always the same, one small thing leads to others and eventually you've rebuilt the engine :D
