Hi Oetker! Workshop manual, not yet. ![Sad](http://www.matrasport.dk/forum/Smileys/default/sad.gif) Have just jumped into the Matra world you know ![Grin](http://www.matrasport.dk/forum/Smileys/default/grin.gif) and I llove it. The manuals, are they to find in english and german, or only german? Have made a list of parts needed, but not got time to ordered them yet, also manual and I think that is german. Have checked up the cooling system and engine, was afraid of some defective things here, but I have been lucky, the car seems to be in really good condition. Only thing that do not work good is the right rear calipper. The car have only been running 60500 km and the engine have a beautiful crispy sound with original exhaust muffler. But is it original 4 - 1 system on the car? On my is it 4 outlets tubes and 4 tubes that goes down to a horisontal 1 tube system before original muffler........

Dear all of you. ![Smiley](http://www.matrasport.dk/forum/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Thanks Klumzer!. Have been looking at the link you posted, Its great! But it say nothing about pad rempoval. I want to start with that, clean and greae all up, and see how it work. Am I completly stupid Have been looking at the rear calipper on my car. There is a frame bolted to the trailing arm. On this frame there is a calipper fitted, and this calipper cover the brakepads. Do I have to rempove all completly to get the pads out?... Or is it a way I dont understand to get the pads free, easily. You may want to make yourself this handy tool to screw the brake pistons back, in order to make room for new pads. It is basically just a lump of steel fitting into the grove on the piston and brazed to a hex nut. the screw and washer holds it into a rachet wrench. With this you can quickly screw the piston back in.

Did buy the same paint some days ago from Biltema. ![Smiley](http://www.matrasport.dk/forum/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Thanks!! Today I did remove trailing arms and driveshafts, no problems, and all work was done in less than one hour. The car has low milage and the easy work today did maybe confirm that. No trouble, everything was almost to easy to remove. I will, clean, glassblast the calippers and paint. The disc will be sandblasted and painted, the trailing arm will be sandblasted outside and inside and painted with a extra Owatrol oil treatment inside. New wheelbearings mounted. Bushings no need to be replaced. Have also removed the old Velm sunroof, and fitted the new Webasto/Hollandia sunroof and this was much better. This was a nice holyday with beautiful weather and also some quality time in garage.

Have this afternoon been sandblasting trailing arms and some small parts. I have the last 30 years had much nice old cars that I have restorde a bit. And always found lots more trouble than I was expecting. On this Murena its opposite, the car is much better than I thougt.... The trailing arms was not so beautiful to look at from beginning. After the work today this afternoon, outside and inside(did make a 12 mm hole in the bottom) and also gave them some sand and compressed air inside, they was without any rust damage. Now I have cleaned them totally and are going to give them 3 layers of Owatrol, 2 layers of mix 50/50% Owatrol/Arcanol and at last 3 layers of Arcanol outside, Inside only owatrol blown inside with ompressed air. ![](http://i950.photobucket.com/albums/ad348/alfafred/001-1_zpsc8321a65.jpg) Here I am almost finished with the left side.
