I removed the antenna and dismantled it.
The internals were in bad condition and some of the teeth were rounded off.
I repaired the internals cleaned everything up and re-installed, all working now.

There was slight damp in the boot and after inspecting the problem I found that small amounts of water were coming from the antenna outlet pipe as it was blocked up.
I cleared out the pipe, disenfected it and re-installed.

The bonnet catch on this car was completely seized up and the safety catch was not working at all.

After removing the catch, I de-greased it and cleaned up the mechanism.
To spruce it up slightly I re-sprayed it, then added new grease and now the catch is working correctly.

This car had an aftermarket pioneer CD changer in the boot that was in my opinion poorly fitted.
The wiring was tracked inside the rear wing of the car, and was moving freely and I could hear it rattling round, even when I closed the door, I could hear the wiring rattle; the wiring the appeared out in the engine bay.

I followed the wiring through the firewall of the car, into the cabin and it ran up along the drivers side carpet.
It then ran up under the dash and was bundled up behind the carpet.

I then traced the wires to where it was taking power and discovered that first; the CD system was wired in using an FM transmitter so the CD signal only passed through via the antenna. I then discovered where the system was wired into and was shocked to see how bad and more important dangerous this was.
From what you can see, the OEM wiring loom was sripped back in places and the CD wiring was just wound round the loom and left like that!! No masking tape in places, no solder, nothing. So after speaking to the owner we decided the best method was to remove everything and repair the damaged cable and secure it correctly.
