Put a set of genuine polished Subaru alloys on SWMBOs car looks very smart indeed, the original ones were looking tired.

Dropped it at the dealer to have some minor annoyances taken care of.

So currently in a fully drug dealer spec '21 disco sport.

ABS light has come on in the Mondeo.  >:(

I've got code U0415 - Invalid data received from anti lock brake system (ABS) control module, so I assume the module is Donald.  :-\

Apparently it's behind the battery.  Anyone know if the module is easily detached from the pump in situ?  So I don't have the faff of removing the pump with all that entails.  ::)

TIA!  :)

Made some roof box brackets to fit it because I can't reach inside to tighten up the Thule ones  ;D

Drove it the 460 miles to Paris, loaded to the gunwales with 6 people, mobility scooter, roof box and all the other gubbins of a family holiday.

The car never missed a beat, 80mph/130kph all the way, in great comfort, and 26mpg. Not bad I reckon. :y

Sounds like you've found a car you are really happy with, Jim. It's nice when that happens  :)







Make the most of it, it will start falling to bits soon  ;D
