[That Ruddy Squirrel]

pmsl.i always carry some tissues,just to wipe the bodywork down after all the dribbling.

I seem to remember that you were using them to dry up the tears after the bodywork damage on the recent Dorking run

I have never seen tyres so shiney I bet the black one would look better with the same treatment.

What do you use on them back to black veg oil or a blast of gloss from the spray gun. Impressive to say the least.

Had a problem with closing the rear window on my Surf, always sticking open and slow to close when decided to work with key or from switch.
With good advice from guys from this website problem solved simply with my wife & a can of silicone & grease.

Drop your window & tailgate. Remove panel and plastic cover to expose window & motor.Use a screw driver to push the catches in on both sides of the gate to give the impression the tailgate is shut. Now insert the key or use the switch to raise the window. Wife bit, get her to hold the glass when it appears, it needs to be supported or could pop out or smash with own weight. Now blast the window channels inside the gate with silicone spray and the upper channels too. Grease the channels on the mechanism and then raise & lower window several times to get everthing lubricated. "Ok i sprayed everything that moved Even the Mrs" .
This as now sorted this problem out and increased the window speed by 30% & doesn`t need that helping hand when it gets close to the top.

Thanx to the guy responsable for this advice, Sorry but i can`t remember who it was.Thanx to the wife who moaned enough for me to get this sorted.

SHE WAS HAPPY TO HELP REALY!!!!!!!!!!!!!
