Is it safely stored away at least? What did the new employers say about storing/displaying it at your work?

Going from max to min oil in about 250miles, plugs are the correct biscuit colour, and it's not smoking on startup or load, what else can I check? (no leaks!)

Current one does about 600-700 to the pint, but does smoke on cold start.

Garage has no spots of oil, even after a long hot run. Got a whining noise from the diff now, the engine & box have done about 6k ish since being built, completely paranoid about it now aha.

Yes, my error officer. :) Quite unique little cars, and I like the MK1 Fiat Panda. :)

I’m sure I’ve seen some somewhere, but does anyone know where I could get hold of some waterproof rubber relay covers?

Hi Peeps! I have a wonderful 'leak' in my drivers side footwell and parcel shelf. The footwell has a slight hole - about the size of a 50p and water collects in it! I have had it up the ramp and underneath it looks well sealed - so I'm quite perplexed where it's getting in. I've sealed up and replaced grommets in the engine but still the water gets in. Any ideas? The parcel shelf leak - I 'sealed' with clear sealant around the window seal and still the rain...

Similar to mine at one time. It is most likely coming from the front screen. Some silicon should help, but you really need to get it under the seal for it to work. Additionally adding some between the glass and the seal should help to. However (lets hope there isnt) a small amount of rust under the seal, this will then make the seal not as effective and as such water will leak in. Hope you get it sorted.

Mine leaks in under the glass and through the seal but only when I'm driving in the rain into a head wind. Must get that new seal in for the winter...
