my handles hold stuff until it drips out the bottom...so overnight? then i get a nice stain on my doors. really perfects the whole "clean" look.

Handles have caused me zero problems, but a bird has. It's shat on my roof. off to clean it now (and to track down and assassinate the bird.)

Yo all, after 4 weeks of the completion of two major projects tatking up all my time, and only driving my car 3 times during those weeks, I sat, and had a play with my car today.
I noticed that the boot light wasn't connected, so I connected it...hehehe

Also the steerer fluid container was loose so I fastened it down.

I also noticed the two front seats seemed a bit loose, assuming its just in need of tightening, is there a DIY for this?

More questions...

Any recommended mechainics who will re-gas, oil change and do a general servive.... I want only the best.
ANd how much should I bugdet for?approx.

Anyway, thanks for the help...

The only service I didn't do myself was performed by the bloke I bought my car off....Steve Natoli, who's down around Five Dock. He charged me like $120 for oil, filters and general look-over, which seems to sound far cheaper than most of the newer dubbers pay for a service haha. Might be worth checking him out because I know he's a guru?

Anyone can re-gas the aircon...golf loon always asks people if they want it done, I had my previous car done by someone who came to me for about $100, meh.

Anyone else?

Any DIY's on front seats?

**Lorenz** · 11-09-2009, 08:03 PM

Front seats might be lose due to the plastic sliders that sit on the edge of the seat rails connected to the floor pan coming off. Take a look and see if they are there. Prone to coming off and causing the seat to be lose/rattle. There's no real way of tightning of loseing them.... Otherwise the rail/base of the seat is cracked and lose, which my drivers side is and needs rewelding
