    Um let me see:

    The one piece floor mat in the new defenders that is made out of tissue paper.
    The ultra super mega fine thread on the bolts holding the swivel balls to the axle tube.
    Getting 2 Battries and a compressor under the passenger seat
    Prop shaft bolts.
    The way the hand brake always fills up with sand.
    Uncaptive nuts.
    The drivers door latch that keeps eating my belt buckles.


    Well I guess if thats the worst of it I'm sure I'll get over it!!!

    I hate trying to get the fan off the water pump on the 4bb1 in my series 3, only just enought room to get a spanner and a hand in between the radiator core and the fan, it is great fun sliceing the skin off knuckles on the radiator fins

    Also the random patch of oil that appears every now and then when i park for 5 mins, I have degreased the engine several times trying to find the damn leak

    For me its the fact that the electric windows have an auto down setting so the window goes all the way down, but doesnt have the same for going up!!

    Why do the auto down without doing auto up?! I dont get it....grrr...

    But thats about it... pretty petty stuff.

    The reason they dont have the auto up is a safety feature imagine if ya was leaning out the window and bumped the switch and up she went on auto pilot id say if it didnt cut ya in half it would make a bloody good mess trying
