Replaced the 'equipe' badge on the VX; chrome was flaking off the old one.

Anyway, new one went on bloody crokkedly, didn't it. In re-arranging the individual letter the letters bent and as such the chrome finish on 4 of 6 letters is a bit wrinkly. Placement is good now but now sure how the adhesion and chrome finish will hold up now...

Might be up for $35 badge again next time goes to car wash. ****.

Found more coolant under the VS this morning after a water pump change yesterday :(

this car likes to leak green fluid. This time it was the lower radiator hose. I loosened off the top Hose clamp yesterday by mistake when I did the water pump. Re-tightened it last night but the old hose didn't seal properly. This morning I pushed the hose on a bit further and then moved the hose clamp over a bit and it's sealed for now. I'll have to pick up a new hose but i don't feel like dropping my brand new coolant :(

Drop it into a clean bucket, and then strain it before reusing it.
