Andy, it takes 2 people to do it properly, fill a spray bottle with a strong mix of fairy liquid and water and spray onto inside of roof. from outside you need someone with high pressure airline and go all over the roof and windscreen with it. Inside, when you see a bubble blow, there is your leak :wink:

Gave mine a quick jet wash then cleaned the old oil from the road where it had leaked when it had a dodgy tranny box seal.
Took me over an hour to wash the mud off the road though :roll:

Mini lube service on the 2.8.

Replaced battery, and checked pressures on the v6, and shed a tear as it will soon have a new home :cry:
