The seal in my one month old water pump blew out last week....so the front of my mini is torn apart in the driveway....a couple of days of solid rain means no progress so far, looking for a few days of decent weather later this week so I can get things put back together before MOTD time. I HATE these types of issues so close to an event!
AC took a dump AFTER getting the car all checked out and ready for the trip---going in Thurs to get it done....
lost a CV boot clamp, and then the grease, either at the Dragon or on way home....either way didn't know until it started raising hell about 2 hours from home...(sigh)...just ordered RMW axles to get ready for next time...
