What have you done to your Elgrand today?

[LeStempy]

Checked fluids and tyres. Went to fill up but only allowed 30 litres at a time so went round twice.

Why is there a 30L limit?

Why is there a 30L limit?

Because the French are protesting at Macrons railroading of the retirement age from 62 to 64. Fuel deliveries are being impeded so stations are limiting supply. There was no diesel or E10 at the pump today but there was at least 60 litres of 98 RON. If someone twigged me going round twice I'll probably be set on fire during the night.

64. They should think themselves lucky.

Fitted the tow bar and changed the mudguards on the trailer, tailgate doesn’t clear the box but opens enough View attachment 86347View attachment 86348View attachment 86349View attachment 86348View attachment 86349

Great job.
Now it needs some Elgrand windows.

I removed most of the carpets as I'm going to replace them soon, spend half an hour "shaving" boot compartment lid.
Once I get some fabric and make templates will take some pics, just now to lazy haha.

If you mean the obd port it is behind the flip out coin tray. Open the tray then pull it off.

Picked the van up from the bodyshop after repairs been done since it got crashed into when it was parked up (luckily claimed on 3rd parties imsurance) . Perfect colour match on the G30, as well... Roof box painted at same time to colour match the van in G30, heres a sneak peak as not had time myself to get it out.

It looks sooo good in person though. Will get picks with it on the van in a week or 2 as going camping at easter!

Installed airlift 1000 air bags recently and got them on 20psi. Now my Elgrand is sitting straight and not bottoming out anymore.
Yesterday I drove it to work 120km away from home and got very hot. This morning I checked the radiator and whalah....free chocolate milk in my radiator and overflow tank.

I hate those black lines that come from the window rubbers, mine does it too.

Snap mines been doing the same! Can't help but wipe them away every time I use the Elgrand!

I got my battery charged up OK. Had to use the physical key from the fob to get it started - quite a few wiggles to get it going at first. Let it warm up. Key fob then worked as it should. It's as if it has to re-learn each time after battery has been flat.

Or what about a vinyl outline of an Elgrand! Loving the bling hub caps, looks so much better!

Awesome!! I would like to try that on mine but a bit hesitant. I already spend around $400 just to get used projector head lights and fog lights from Japan....
What did you clean it up with if I may ask?

 

[Lee]

Sure. It was Armorall headlight restorer wipes kit

Chose this as there is a guy on YouTube who absolutely hates everything armorall, and even he said it did a decent job . May only last for the summer and a full polish would be a longer term solution but right now for £8.49 I am pretty happy
