Re: Centre Console Vent Issue – Now Fixed

Firstly, thanks for the guides to fix this - it feels a bit like surgery when the car is in pieces !

Re: Going down the F-Type rabbit hole

Initial skim… I would try and find one with the performance seats (I have the standard seats like these examples).
Other than that the usual checking of S/H, diff oil change and rear cross braces for corrosion.
Good luck

Re: New owner | but my F type isn’t normal!

Yes indeed. Check the tank, and follow the pipe work from there. If you’ve got a leak of some magnitude it is likely to be obvious - you could stick a large piece of cardboard under the engine bay on the floor which might help and leave it there overnight. If not obvious, might be water pump on the ...

Re: New owner | but my F type isn’t normal!

Thanks so much for all your help everyone! Given the car a charge & recondition with a new CTEC charger, will see how it goes over the next few days. I’ll post some pictures of the exhaust box, it’ll be interesting to see what I have under there! One additional thing, I had to ‘top up’ my coola...
