Feelin for ya mate re the axle...
I took the opportunity to do some needed maintenance. Seems like all the known faults are happening since I bought this thing....
So just replaced the water pump on my N62 (surprised old one lasted after I took it out), tracked down and eliminated an annoying ticking sound from passenger side dash (tweeter), installed radio station logos artwork for each channel in my Dynavin stereo, found and fixed a faulty stop light contact, replaced missing hood emblem, new wiper blades etc and washed, polished and detailed the thing to look all clean....
job done....
then today the rear passenger door handle carrier broke...
Cheers
