just got back from a week in melbourne, and dropped the car off to S&L in Ferntree Gully, for a 4 wheel alignment, ride height adjustment, and to find that annoying 'miss under acceleration' my car has had since i bought it...

what a great place to take the car to have work done..they were great...


the miss in the motor was because the numpty who fitted the new cam belt on the right hand bank, was a tooth out...so, after they fixed it, the 'engine management system' warning on the dash disappeared, and 6 hours later, i got back to Mildura, with the car absolutely purring....i didnt realise how much difference driving the car with everything working properly would make...air-con on max(40+ degrees outside),cruising at 120, and still only went through 60 odd litres of fuel to get home(about 580k's....


life's good...

Good news Ross. Just goes to show that getting the "Right" people to work on the car makes a world of difference to the driving enjoyment
