In a move that’s probably overdue, I decided it was time to spend a bit of money on the XR6, as I’d rather like to keep it for a while (seeing it won’t be paid off for another four years).

Last week I had the car serviced, and a safety check done.
They suggested that I should get the gearbox serviced, and one of the bushes on the diff carrier replaced.

So this week I had the gearbox serviced at D.S Jones Automatics in Seven Hills (Great workshop, I’ve had all my automatic gearboxes serviced/replaced there).

The backlit power window switches have been fitted to all the doors except rear passenger-side, and I think I may have misplaced the centre-cap for the wheel that I bought.

More work is planned for next week, including the purchase of a rubber boot mat, to protect the boot carpet from any kinds of spills (poffertjes mix is working its way in to the carpet, and it doesn’t look good, so I’ll have it cleaned, then put in the boot mat).
