Inkey$ Z4 3.0 project diary

Just don't do as I did, when I removed one on a previous Z I was looking at the wrong part of the reservoir when I was trying to bleed the clutch and spent an hour pushing the pedal and bleeding it when there was no liquid in it :lol:

Brake side was full which was what I was looking at ...

Not much of an update as I haven’t done much to the car recently, except take her out for a drive around north Kent in today’s sunshine. Turned of the DTC, pressed the sport button and had a blast for 90 mins before heading home.

If I get time on Sunday/Monday I think I’ll hardwire in the USB port into the glovebox somewhere. Might also clean the interior this weekend - especially the textured black plastic of the dash as its looking grey in the sunshine. Any tips on what to clean this up with? In the past I’ve used vinyl restorer type stuff, but its not really worked.

Anyway, here’s a couple of phone photos from today’s exploits.

Haven’t posted on this for a while, so thought I’d add a few updates. Zed is booked in with ETA to find and remedy the leaky headlight washer and I may well be replacing the lacquer micro-blistered passenger door soon for the one I bought from [ref]enuff_zed[/ref],

She’s running super sweet and I’m about to head off for a weekend in Norfolk, so can’t wait to enjoy the incoming heatwave and get the roof down.

Gave her a full clean today including the interior leather seats and door cards, followed by a coating of Poorboys Wheel Wax on the 107s.

The car is still technically for sale, but at the moment I’m really not in a hurry to sell :driving:

Kettle will be on if you are passing.

:thumbsup: Will see what time I end up leaving. I’ll message you for details just in case :thumbsup:
 
Okay I formally and unreservedly admit that I had a blonde moment there and made a silly booboo.

Daisies are 103’s not 107’s my bad x

Thanks to PVR for pointing this out and to [ref]enuff_zed[/ref], for trying to save me again, a signed kinky boots photo in the post xx
