Still, better than welding the bastard up every other MOT which would have been my life if I kept the previous 2004 Vito.

Anyway had an hour spare between child activities tonight so had a quick bash at the seats.

They were quite rank.

Didn't really have the best selection of equipment, a hand brush and some sort of car shampoo in cold water, plus a wet vac.

They've come up better but there are definitely some stains that need doing again.

Seems like all the manufacturers went down the "Shimano 9-speed" route for camchains as well as putting them at the back of the engine around the same time, I hope whoever signed off on that shit got fired out of a cannon when they started going ping.

Yea deffo agree with the chain comment, I understand progress and things but the stuff i ran with the old OM601 duplex chain was a brilliant bit of engineering, very few mechanical issues, just rampant rust and failing suspension parts to constantly deal with.
