Does it turn into a killer toaster when the decepticons turn up?

Seriously though, nice work there fella, possibly one of the most individualised themed rocco's I've seen, and it's tidy too, which helps :ok:

Havnt updated this in a long while.

I've got a few leaks to sort, namely:

Drivers side Rear Footwell drenched in water. (Im thinking this is running down from the bulkhead as the drivers area is a bit wet too)
Drivers side windscreen / window keeps getting steamed up (probably the same issue)
Passenger side rear light collecting water
Rear windscreen keeps getting steamed up (possibly due to the above)

Last week the Radio died and my replacement wouldnt work.

Many thanks to Ian who came all the way to visit me and we figured out the head unit had gone on my original system. We replaced it with my other one but the fuse had blown on that. 3 or 4 fuses later (no 3 and radio) and we had the old one up and running in the car.

I took the car to Oxford for work and as a result I was losing power for a few seconds after a quick shift up.
More recently yesterday I drove it through traffic to Hammersmith where it cut out several times (when slowing down) along the way, jerked violently forwards and backwards (at 1 - 2k revs, sometimes when just casually going along) and generally wanted to die.

The fuel pump is again whining like a pig so I think this one could be on its way out too!

Upcoming bits and pieces:
Some movement on the Digifiz stuff (TBC)
Hopefully / Possibly get the bodykit fitted this year
Stainless filler needs fitting

Get that rotor arm changed Rohan!
I have a spare fuel pump you can try on your car mate, but do the filler neck first and change the fuel filter as well.

Once again I have to say a massive thank you to Ian for helping me with all the following today:

- Tightening my squealing alt belt
- Checking my fuel filter for rubbish
- Moving the fuel line to the filter to avoid any chance of hitting the alternator
- Changing the lift pump as the old one's filter (bag type) had ripped at both ends
- Locating the source of my water ingress
- Helping remove the interior and set up a water soaking system
- Replaced the scuttle cover with a less destroyed one

Now I need to find part 171 419 547A (U-joint boot gasket) which is missing and appears to be where the water is running down from..

Part 5A

PS the main fuel pump seemed fine although we didnt actually drive the car anywhere but it was idling for a while. Could be rust in the tank (as there was a bit) or still could be the pump.. only time will tell. I shall replace the filler with the stainless steel one I have shortly.
