What've you done to your MR2 today?

Post by parker455 »

Guys!

We have the same thread running on the mk3 ROC and it's pretty cool to see what everyone's been doing to their MR2 today! Not sure if it's done here before or not, but it's what keeps me posting on the ROC regularly so would be good on here!

So, what've you done to your MR2 today?
Realise most might be in storage for winter, but anything MR2 related would be good!
I've bought some 5w/40 Fuchs supersynth fully synthetic + Genuine oil filter + Cam cover gasket for a nice little service when I get back in december. Plugs were recently changed too :th:

Replaced both front hubs. My wheel bearings were rough and a bit noisy. Couldn't really tell how bad they were until everything was stripped down.

Fitted my new ARB front bushes and put the front roll bar on the soft setting to match the rear.

Test drove it to B&Q (had to fix a plumbing leak in the house). Car is a lot less jittery now.

Now off to help Dom bleed his motorbike brakes. Busy day. Back to work tomorrow for a rest!
