In this video, I’ll be replacing the front shock absorbers of my Ford Focus MK2. This procedure is also similar to Volvo S40, V50 and C30 ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyCYJQB1MzY
In this video, I will be going through the process of repairing the rear vents which are the main cause of water leaks into the boot of the Ford Focus MK3, made from from 2011to 2016.
First signs are condensation inside the car and then water pooling in the spare wheel well. Then, when it accumulates too much water, it starts to slosh around and to leak into the footwells.
This is what happened to my wife's car.
This process includes the removal of the trim, rear lights, bumper and vents, plus removing the remaining water and resealing the vents with Tiger Seal

In this video, I will be going through some of the aspects of keeping a classic during winter whilst not in use, especially for who, like me, has no indoor storage facilities.
The 1974 BMW E12 is now hibernating and no work will be done on it for a couple of months at least.

The bodywork was shot blasted, but unfortunately the rook skin became warped.
Tried to dispute this with the guy who did the job, but it was a waste of time.

My high mileage Volvo S80 suddenly had a heater hose split (from engine to bulkhead) split, but luckily that happened when I just arrived at work and could safely stop the car. It was an easy temporary fix that allowed me to get home later!

I had a closed look at the condition of the cylinder walls of my classic BMW and I didn’t like what I saw. Also, an expert had a look at the engine head and the news aren’t much better either

Some idiot clipped my wing mirror and broke the side indicator/repeater lens.
A quick and easy replacement job that can also be used to replace the side repeater bulb. Also valid for the Mk3 Focus

Since I got my Volvo, I noticed that there was always white smoke in very cold mornings and it wouldn’t go away until the engine was a bit warmer. In most cases, the cure to this problem is very simple and can be done on most diesel cars.

Recently, the brakes of my car started to grind every time I pressed the brakes. Since I have been planning to replace the front discs and pads for a while, this was a good opportunity to do the job.
This job might also apply to the Volvo S40 MK2, V50 and C30
