I loved that thumb nail Rob, I never watch that show but it made me laugh. I think it was worth doing the wheels it lifted the whole look of the van. The car wash guys did a great job once again and I think they deserve a mention even if it is not sponsored. Generally 170 k miles for a diesel engine is fine but I know these can have problems so I think your call is the right one Rob. Thanks for the quick turn around video Rob and Chris oh and happy birthday to Chris. 🎂 🕶 👍👍

Hi to you both, first comment from me I think even though I subscribed years ago. Its regarding safety in a way, and not a bad idea to share it with others. I believe that your van is one of the last with the 2.2 engine? if so, then have a quick look under the bonnet just below the red positive battery charging lug, there is a corrugated piece of wiring loom that usually rubs against the water hose, easier to feel it than see it, just run your hand along the hose. I have seen them with about a 100k and the pipe is nearly rubbed through, and you don't want that letting go on you in 6th gear for sure. Seems like a design fault on them. Worth sharing I think. On a lighter note, I am a painter, and repaired a blue one as it was damaged on the lower half, there was a crease there too, so I did the full grind it down, spot weld dent puller etc, etc, only to find that by looking at the other side, its wasn't a crease, the bloody thing is factory. So the one I did is maybe something that you can call customised? Anyway, you can't see both sides at once.🤭 Take care and all the best for the future, John.
