I'm gonna do my best, I love cleaning etc, find it quite therapeutic!! Interior is already really clean, just the outside but no rush, will take as long as it does to get it to a standard I'm happy with

Pump arrived, fitted, jump started this morning - running like a dream!! Got that lovely x10xe noise again now and no chain rattle.

Have a video, it's not the best - lots of other noise.

Car's running like a dream, had it idling for 10mins dead on 1k, revs nice and smoothly... glad that's all sorted.

Today I got my interior fitted, under seat tray done, new interior light and fitted my new coolant bottle. Things are getting done now!!

Update from today;

Interior is now finished! Needs cleaning but in terms of seats etc, it's all done

So door cards;





And seats










Also found my spare surround with pre-cut LED hole. Am planning on replacing this soon, so bit of glue isn't a problem at the moment.

I'm in love with the interior, got a few more little bits to do, and I need to give it a mental clean but omg they're so comfy and it looks so damn good!!

In terms of the exterior, My spoiler which I'm collecting at Trax, possibly some Angels with HID's, lower 40mm, smoked side repeaters and some different alloys

Small Update;

I lost loads of interest in the car, and it's been sat parked up for a while - however - with winter approaching, I've decided I need my car back.

Got my sisters boyfriend to plug it in to their diagnostic machine and these were the results;




All the low voltage results seemed to odd for me, so cleaned the earth points, cleared the codes and ran the test again - Only result I got was egr again.

Have borrowed a work light from same guy, and am going to try get that off this week to be cleaned. A real bugger I'm on lates this week so don't get home till 7pm!

Well done a little this morning as my EGR Blank turned up...

So, EGR Off;



Was rammed full of crap, piston was barely moving so got it all done. Is so much better now so got that back on - No after pic sadly.

Also took a chance to clean the battery tray up. Was going to paint it but some **** has broken the nozel of the can :face palm:

Before;



After;



Doesn't look much better but there's no flaking now, so just needs a coat of paint when I can. Was expecting it to be a git to get out, but nope!!

Just waiting for mum to get back so I can try jump start it
