yeah i know mate, been driving like a learner last couple of days (no offence to learners)
its only got worse yesterday an today especially and now the lights playing up on top of that, i think thats the last trip the mondy does till she better! got 2 young girls an a prenant partner so not even worth thinking about it!!

now i think about it, the rear drivers wheel thats got the rattly disc an dodgy bearing is also the same wheel that the tire keeps going down on!! had the valve changed last week but didnt work, both rear tires are near to new an the guy at garage said there was no punctures an that it could be the inner part of the rim damaged??? just seems strange that its all on that rear corner!!

back to the lights tho, ill check the earth lead/s tomorrow an check the voltage, other than that im clueless! lol
