Slightly annoyed that I couldn’t get the live data to work on Carly

Removed the washer bottle as I was getting virtually no water to windscreen or headlights. Filters were blocked.
All good now and ready for Thursday's MOT.

What have you done to your car today?
I started a bit of a mini-project today. My driver side headlight and two fog lights have a lot of moisture in them so my intention was to take out the headlight and dry it, and while having the bumper off remove the fog lights and install blanking covers. As soon as I took the headlight out it was pretty obvious how the water was getting in as the back cover fell straight onto the ground, so if it was attached it wasn’t secure (new one in order).
This has now evolved into a few other bits that I discovered, including replacing the two engine splash guards (which are an eye watering £130 each!), repair of the under engine protecter, new bulbs, repair broken horn wire, identifying what suspension it is on and replacing a few missing bolts / screws.
Rewarding but it’s not the quick or cheap fix I was starting out on.

And passed with no advisories.
Will be detailed once the weather gets better and potentially sold due to lack of use.
Let's see.

Fitted replacement boot struts having sent the original OEM ones off to be regassed.
Now the boot opens all the way by itself (even with parcel shelf hooked on), so I don't keep hitting my head on the latch!

Finally did the Gear box oil, and it really was a simple as removing plugs, drain oil, refill and then torque up!
Mini write up on my Z4M thread!
Although after having a look around, shocks and suspension next, its looking pretty manky!

Got some Ground Control camber plates. Seem very well made, looking forward to getting them on! Didn’t get any import charges either which was a bonus (or just lucky)!
