What have you done to your Elgrand today?

My poor husband laboured in this sweltering heat to clean and polish Jeeves. Finished result is as profile pic! Topped up coolant, checked brake fluid, oil, power steering fluid and wishywoppers fluid....all spot on! The mighty beast is so addictive! Hmmmm maybe I should have a rethink....Hercules?! Lol
 
Just tried to take my front caliper off to find the rattle but had no luck in loosing the slider pin bolts! Grrrrrr
Am I right in thinking that a spanner should be hit upwards (anticlockwise)... I am panicking whether I am hitting it the right way as my spanner bent! lol Whats the correct size 16 or 17mm?
I also noticed that my front wheel bearing is slightly weeping grease from the lower rear side, is this normal or should I start worrying?!

I had a similar issue with a calliper on a jag. It needed an impact gun to get the bolt moving.
 
Cleaned out back of camper area to get ready to reshape all the storage and try to make more room.
Saw the post about usb in glove box...I’ll go hunting and see if I have one.
 
Today I got mine dirty lol-----rained for first time in weeks and every bit of crud every car threw up seemed to hit mine
wonder what i'm doing this weekend:rolleyes::)
 
Picked daughter up from Nursery and then we undertook a drifting session around a few nearly tarmac roundabouts with oily surface.

Tyres screaming and smoke. I need to grow up!!
