Installed Whiteline rear sway bar. Stock one was 23mm, replacement 27mm. Haven't taken her for a spin yet but previous experience with upgrading RSB leads me to expect good results.

#1 Power fold mirror redux. This time the wire going into the micro switch broke off causing the mirrors to immediately bounce back open. Was very glad to see that the switches inside the left side and right side are the same. Quick swap the with switch in my old mirror unit did the trick. (Thank you X Outpost, fix took 30 mins)

#2. Adjusted the OBC KVBR down from 1000 in attempt to have more accurate mpg / miles left.
What level do you have yours set at (test #20 in OBC) ??

Changed the front and rear diff fluid while I had the stiffening plate off for the motor mount change out (attempt).

Found that both flex disks have seen better days (not fatal, but while I'm in there type thing). Ordered both up and awaiting their arrival...

Took the 4.4 into garage today, for the rocker gaskets changing (£50 not bad)
got a phone call at 4pm saying got bad news on it , i asked Richard the mechanic ,while he was changing them, to really check the pipes and hoses as he was stripping it down.
he said...
"ive found the reason why its drinking fuel and slightly missing , .......
the thermostat i had fitted has shorted out the wiring harness and melted about 6 inch of wiring. thus causing it to be stuck on , and effectivly running cold all the time, and ive got to order the parts,. so , no car today http://xdrivers.co.uk/forum/Smileys/...smiley/sad.gif. good news is too fold
1. its not costing me anything to get the new parts and fit them ,:)
2. i get to go to work on my bike instead, which is always a bonus in this weather http://xdrivers.co.uk/forum/Smileys/...ley/smiley.gifhttp://xdrivers.co.uk/forum/Smileys/...ley/smiley.gifhttp://xdrivers.co.uk/forum/Smileys/...ley/smiley.gif

Big reveal is coming next week. I have the ABS module sent out for repair so no sense in putting the headlights back on only to take it out again in a few days.

HUGE THANK YOU to Caesar and Rich at Lightwerkz for putting everything together for me on a day off of work, my lights came out beautiful and now I don't feel like my X is 12 yrs old anymore.
