Car Prep

The Mini had an oil change and a lube today, as well as checking as the suspension nuts and bolts and frame mountings to make sure all is in good shape on the car after 1000kms of driving. Found the source of my tranny fluid dripping a quarter size pool each time I drive... the drain plug needed tightening and the drip has stopped. All looks great, so other than packing the car with some tools and spare parts and some more polishing the car looks good for the trip. Rog the Hat is ready to go, tickets in hand and bags packed for his trip from the UK to here...The Cooper S that is coming along was in the shop today getting new tires, exhaust system and a few other items checked out before we head out. It's good to have a great local Mini mechanic in the club.. Thanks Richard!
