Have been trying to sort out the lack of indicators..... no luck as of yet, but complying a list of what to check from this forum... Now I really, really know why I have a mini, to keep the grey cells alive and kicking.

Replaced all the shocks and used a couple of layers of foam under the drivers seat on my Sidewalk, it no longer rolls and bounces all over the place, and feels a lot more comfortable to drive. I was thinking of getting better seats but the extra layers of foam mean your backs not jolted ever time you hit a bump, and it keeps its original look.

Got it back on the road yesterday after months of not moving. New radiator, thermostat, water pump, alternator belt, flushed the heater matrix and an oil change.
