Thanks Sean I hope your well.

I seen some videos but unfortunately I have a muscular issue at the minute and it’s impacting everything. The thought of wriggling about the interior for an hour isn’t possible.

I’m going to put it off for a while and hoping the body will be able to do it. As yes it just looks like a few cogs.

Are you missing the s8 - I think that would be my next move if I were to step away. But I envisage another year in the w12 especially now if splashed on tyres and next service / mot is close.

New track rod assembly and alignment done.

New ate discs front and rear. Ate pads front and rear. Not cheap as this big lad has bigger discs. And new PS4’s on now.

Driving a treat
