    JOb Done

    Replaced water pump and thermostat today. Stripped eveything down and could see tell tell signs of the pump leaking, but sure it was only the gasket that was at fault. As I had purchased the pump (genuine MB) I thought it was foolish not to replace it :). The thermostat was a doddle after...

    SLK Wheel Bearings - Easy Job?

    I've got a droning wheel bearing, sounds like a rear one. Are they an easy job to replace? Any special tools needed? Just hoping it isn't the diff but I've changed the oil and no difference. MOT coming up so hopefully the tester can pinpoint which one, even if it isn't a failure point. Thanks...
