Title: Wish i had an auto again!
Post by: Taxi_Driver on 07 November 2013, 18:18:20

Having the Omega auto....driving all day gave me a DVT....so since then ive gone back to manuals....after about 20 years of autos.

Have a bad back at the moment....no pain in my back....just pressing on my sciatic nerve.....which means i have pain in left leg....and its murder to keep pressing the clutch  :'(

Tho i did have a result today.....took the VW for new front pads (warning light on)....dropped it off and limped off to go get a coffee.....was gone about 10mins....came back and the mechanic was reversing my VW back out off the garage....i said 'that was quick' , he replied 'pads dont need doing, was the sensor broken off....ive shorted the wires together to turn the light off'

OK sensor needs changing at some point but job jobbed  :y :)
