Spent 4 hours trying to remove the starter motor. It appears some A friend has tried before and has cross threaded the top bolt and left it loose. The bolt is solid and cant get enough leveredge on it to shift it :evil:

. Its not looking good so far and now the bloody vaux alarm keeps going off.

I didn´t do it today, but day before yesterday. I sold my trusted Frontera. Lots of fun over five years, but it had to go, i need more room inside the car. I´m not happy or proud of what i´ve done. Shame on me. :roll:

BUT, this forum will still stay in my Favourites in my PC. Great forum!

Removed the plastic wheel cover off the back and mounted the spare maxxis that would not fit before.
Topped up the oil and all other fluids as needed.
Put a a fog.co.uk sticker on the front windscreen.

Power washed all the green slime off the windscreen in preparation for tomorrows trip. Checked the oil and started the old girl up just in case.

I also drink Port and I'm not ashamed to say it!
