SubscriberMy car feels like a new car. Sort of. New rear pads and rotors, new front pads, brakes bled, I've bypassed the front right ABS plug/connector, so now I drive alone. The three Amigos have not been seen since Feb 24th and 500 kms. A new radiator so no more coolant leaks and a new audio head. Blue tooth phone and music, yay.
Just chasing oil leaks now, but then, aren't we all?

Started pulling the crazily exposed second battery out last night.
It's been installed where the air comp would be, but is hanging 2" below the chassis rails!
A revised shelf and AGM deep cycle will be going in.
