Service due tomorrow with PrestigeAutoworks. I could do it myself, but I still feel that these car's re-sale would suffer if there was a lack of recognised stamps in the book, and that an expert eye every 2 years is worth it.
So got it up in the air in preparation and got a few bits done I've had on my list.
Fitted two new (Skoda) Parking sensors in the front, to replace the faulty ones - All good.
Replaced a broken exhaust clamp on the rear.
Drilled out a sheared undertray bolt from last year.
Sprayed ACF50 on many things.
Physically check the clutch plate through the inspection window, to see if the circa 38% Wear suggested by the Launch X431 is realistic ... and pleased to say there are still prominent grooves in the friction material and thickness seems to be about 5.9mm-6mm which would suggest that there's plenty of life in it. (new is 6.1-6.3mm, Worn is 5.1-5.3mm) so happy with that. The car has done 37k miles, so begining to wonder if it had a clutch early in it's life, although there is no paperwork to suggest that.
The afternoon didn't end so well, when I went to lower the car back down again, and the Hydraulic Power Unit for my lifts decided it didn't want to play
Car is currently stuck up in the air and customer service was shut as it was after 5pm, so very much hoping that Tech support get back to me ASAP in the morning.
It seems that the motor doesn't want to turn, but I didn't want to start pulling it apart as it's under warranty, so fingers crossed....
