Is cleaning your wheels to this standard not bordering on OCD?

I run winter & summer wheels - they get a good clean & wax whenever I swap them over

It's much easier to to when they are off the car

The anal part is doing the back as well

Gave the girl a bit a wash and brush up........

Went on a nice motorway trip to Boundary Mill. Stopped at Pendle Village for afternoon tea. Got her washed in Burnley... nice day out with her, oh, and my wife  Best Cheers

Ordered some BMW Titan silver and will be hitting my 2010+ SC side grills, front grill surround, tail gate strip, and maybe cowl piece to get rid of the brunel grey color and to match my updated Titan Silver letters.


I think it will go well with Alaska White (I don't like them color matched as I think it too much white). The brunel is too dark and looks drab...I only like it when the sun hits it at the right angle and you get that little bit of metallic/bright silver to come out. 2014 FF Autobiography 5.0 SC

Finally figured out why footwell kick panel wasn't securing, lifes little victories, must have a beer to celebrate later!

Got car back together after a little maintenance and took for Mot,passed with no advisories !

Washed and another coat of wax polish... can you put too much wax on ? Sticking with the Style 9's for now but they are scruffy and do need re furbhising.Saw one on Ebay yesterday.... £295 !! Had no idea they where that much.

Decided to get the wheels dirty

Nah. Just a hose down and a clean, good as new.

Well, on Thursday I tried the Liqui Moly oil flush, new oil and ceratec. I normally wouldn't do this but there was a write up on Liqui moly websight about tests done at RSP Motorsports in London Ontario showing dyno results. These guys have amazing dyno and shop plus they tune range rovers. The owner spoke highly of this so I gave it a go. I flushed the motor, drained well and added the ceratec and motor oil. Old oil came out black and some lumps it it.

My impressions at the moment are the motor is quieter, a ticking sound dissapeared. Mileage wise I went from 19ltr per 100km to 17.5ltr per 100km in town. I doubt the oil/flush/ceratec did all that and likely has to do largely with me watching the gauge. Anyhow, it still has a feel good result so I think it was worth it. Nothing suddenly blew up or failed so it's safe for anyone to try. On another note, if anyone lives in Michigan or New York it may be worth checking this RSP out, $750 cad for a tune with the current exchange may be worth while, not to count the AWD dyno they have.

Alternator done today. Complicated by factor supplying wrong blasted belt involving a mass chase about.
Sorted now, 14.5 v output under full load, happy ! 2007 Vogue TDV8 with 255/55/20's fitted

Finally got the car port back after selling the BMW, means the RR now has a nice safe home to live in.
