Snap! I haven’t gotten round to fitting a tow bar yet as still manage to get ours in the back as we don’t normally take them with us on holiday.
This year maybe the year to change that though.

@Robob is yours a Highway Star, if so I've got a grille you can have. Not perfect but may be better than yours.

Ah! Thank you mate that's very kind of you. Yea it's a highway star.
I'm going to spray the existing one and then maybe go badgeless if I'm not feeling it.

De-badged the rear and checked to see if the the rear cats had been done. I think the front cats are untouched. Not a bad result and a little peace of mind until we drop a full system on.

Gotta sort that ding in the tailgate though 🙈
 
Fitted a front parking camera. What a pain in the arse 😂 Got it all neatly plumbed in, conduit and self amalgamating tape - fecking plug on it was faulty! Should have checked it first... Also thought I'd be able to hide behind the number plate but not enough room. 3d printed a bracket to drop it below the plate. Wish I could get it angled down a bit more but will do for now.

Thought I'd get this topic underway :)

It's quite popular on many car forums and is a nice way of highlighting something new you've done with your Elgrand be it a modification, a repair, general maintenance or just took her out for a great drive :)

Just add to the thread as and when.

Who will start us off? :)

I’ve spent the day deep cleaning the inside and a nice wash and polish on the outside. So I can put my poorly baby back on the drive and at least look at her even if I can’t drive her😢View attachment 72721

What's up with the motor mate? Why can't you drive her?

Not sure. Seems to have gone into limp mode, No faults showing except CHECK AT flash’s 12 times when turned over. Gear changes harsh from reverse to drive. Gone through all the advice so far re dipstick level etc, but going to need someone that knows there way around as I’m a total novice when it comes to anything more than a good hand wash and polish

Autoboxes are a black art as far as my spannering skills are concerned, hope it's a simple fix.....
 
Gutted as I’ve only had it 9 months and I’ve got a horrible feeling it could be terminal.
I’m going to have a phone around on Tuesday and hopefully find someone reasonably close to North Staffs to share some knowlege

Always look on the bright side mate... I was shitting bricks putting mine through its MOT last week as I've done bugger all to it in the 12 months since I bought it. Fingers crossed pal

If you do get a bike rack 100% recommend the atera dl3 as it slides down and away so enough clearance to open tailgate. You can get a 4th bike adaptor for it as well.
