As I actually prefer to cook my meals in the kitchen, I have tried lining the boot with a heat insulation self adhesive material. Basically to see if i can get my grocery shopping home still cool and fresh.
I'll let you know how successful it has been, but one plus is that the carpet lining now fits properly!
Imagine that..a mg passing you with the aroma of a steak pie...heaven...
In that warm weather we were having, I discovered that my heater was still blowing slightly warm on the cold setting.
Not a biggy, just needed to adjust the Bowden cable right?
Yep. I took off the driver's kick panel and loosened the cable clamp, adjusted it and refitted. When I went to refit the kick panel I had managed to lose one of the fixing screws!
Ah well, I just found a random black screw and refitted the panel.
Started the car and ran it up to temp to check the heater output. Yeah, blowing cold on cold and hot on hot!
Job's a good un, right?
Except...why is coolant dripping from the kick panel?
Yes, this total numpty had screwed that odd screw straight into the heater hose! What a complete pillock!
