jr6yam Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 As we've had a bit of, relatively. decent weather I chucked a bucket of water over the car to get rid of the winter grime Used Autoglm Rapid Aqua wax for the first time; it's good stuff Also did an awesome bodge to fix my blowing exhaust, involving a Jubilee clip, a spring and some chemical metal (A Milltek system is on order) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeezeebaba Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 I clayed her today and treated the seats to some conditioner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HEADPHONES Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 I had already used a clay mitt and C2V3 on the zed 2 weeks ago so today was meant to be just a quick wash and tyre shine. But as it only takes 10 mins to apply C2V3 I couldn't resist slapping another layer on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly350z Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 As dirty as it was having been stored for two months over the Xmas period, I couldn't help but take it for a blast. Completely renewed all my motivation to get things moving Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Science_GT Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Spent the day clean, polish, cherry glaze and wax! Oil/filter change (decided to wash my hair in oil too...) painted the flaking wiper paint too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reeceybeaney Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 (edited) Full on wash and wax treatment and a good cruise along the south east with the other coupè in the household... shame the 350 can't quite keep up with this when going for it!

andy james Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Took my Turbosmart BOV off to give it a clean lube as it stuck open on the way to Ace Cafe yesterday so my Supercharger was blowing compressed air down onto the front wheel! All sorted now. Maybe the GLC could give me a job as a road sweeper...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xelotath Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 This weekend was a wash, polish, and wax, together with a bit of attention to some stone chips and conditioning the leather. Spending some hours properly cleaning the car is quite therapeutic, must do it more often... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHEZZA Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Fitted a new battery followed by a wash and a quick detail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are willing to overlook that and / or allow a wash to count as a mod, then I think you can go ahead and merge them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davey_83 Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Developed a very annoying metallic rattle from the steering wheel and instrament cluster area. Turned out to be the three 10mm's holding the ECU in place had come loose, yay easy fix. Next up, intermittent clonking clutch pedal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aashenfox Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 (edited) Spent 400 smackers sorting out the abortion that was my stereo setup inherited from the previous owner. It's nothing special now, just a boggo single din bluetooth Sony jobby, but what they told me about what was going on behind the dash and doors was frankly scary. Ended up needing to replace the existing (Chinese) aftermarket amp with a nice focal unit, that's just driving the sub for the time being, I don't need mega power. The standard speaker outs are now going to what were (pleasantly surprisingly) a nice set of Focals behind the seats (the guys fitting the stuff couldn't believe it, suddenly in the middle of this debacle was a single pair of sweeeet speakers. Hey, my first bit of good news from this car), and some Chinese tat in the doors. Replaced the tweeters cos one wasn't working. apparently they were little better than a PC motherboard speaker, so thank god one of them wasn't working . Inherited aftermarket sub is Chinese but working fine (another pleasant surprise), and I have a listenable system in the car for the first time since getting the car in September and a new dash cubby! Yay! Edited February 21, 2017 by Aashenfox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jr6yam Posted February 28, 2017 Author Share Posted February 28, 2017 Had the Milltek cat-back system fitted today. Car seems a bit livelier, but it could be my imagination Also clutch fluid and oil & filter change. MOT passed; good times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
