That would be mine .

Having an O2 sensor and part of the wiring loom changed thanks to my air con unit leaking on it. Quite impressed as they found a slight problem with the diff that I forgot to tell them about.

What were the symptoms of the diff problem?

A slight 'murmur' which I guess is a slight vibration. They have added some more anti friction oil and thats cured it.

Is yours the yellow 'ro I see from time to time heading west out of Southampton in the evening? Usually spotted on the Millbrook bypass as I'm heading in the other direction.

I think my aircon is leaking. I keep in finding puddles of just plain water under the car and the only plain water in the car would be the stuff that condenses in the aircon. Is there a fix for this or is it a "feature"?
Thank god it's not oil or fuel or brake fluid though!

It's a feature, mine does it too. I've had people come up to me in filling stations really anxious to point out the fluid that's leaking out as I'm fuelling up, but it's perfectly normal.

Cheers for that. My rational mind was saying that it was normal but I couldn't help but worry a bit that I was losing coolant or something.

Yep they did the same for me - random noises seem to have gone now.

Though I hear you've found an excuse to change the diff now??
