I don't suppose anyone has mentioned the steering wheel foam letting go of the steel frame inside it?

Yes, I've come across this. My parts car had this problem and I asked about it; apparently it happens every now and then. I was told that, if you don't want to replace the wheel, then an auto upholsterer or similar might be able to inject a glue into the foam that will fix it up.

Can I add:

For those with Traction Control, the TCL solenoids getting sticky or failing (resulting in 'TCL Off' and 'CEL' lights) - solution is to replace the solenoids on the passenger side firewall.

For wagons, leaking rear quarter windows - solution is to disasseble window and reseal.

Leaking rocker cover gaskets - solution replace the gaskets and plug tube seals.

Fuel smell inside car - could be a number of things but check the purge solenoids (https://www.aussiemagna.com/forums/sh...=105501&page=1)

I'll add one solution here:

Remote fob battery holder falls off
Wrap electrical tape cut in half down the middle around holder and board

I just want to know how to disassemble the rear light cluster for the TJs so I can get a few pet spiders out from between the indicator and clear plastic.

Its not really possible with the TJ lights, as it is with the KJ lights.
Want to get stuff out of the lens area, remove the whole lamp from the car, remove the bulbs and use a vacuum cleaner.
