Fully recharged battery put back in.


My car gets passive aggressive when I don't driver her every week or so.

I washed the GTS and she looked so good I took a shot of her (sadly with the phone camera).

it's still a BIG shot, but now there's a thumbnail to click instead! Much better

Wow - Wall Paper size pic that is.

I drove mine to work and it was glorious even for a 30 year old neglected car. Slowly getting her back where she should be and feel.

Best part is I get to drive her home from sea level to 3000' in the nearby mountains. I am blessed.

I put in Roger's rear hatch latch rubbery liner. Best $28 I have spent for the 928.

Completed Tune-up. New everything. Definitely running on all 8 now. Much more fun than whatever I was running on from the PO.

Idle speed is mostly 650ish but occasionally dips to 300 and then decides to go back to 650.

Not sure what to check next...It’s always something.

I am 5 hours away from mine with the little woman waiting for her to get out of the hospital. It has been 3 days since I have seen and driven her (my 928) and I am really missing her.
Should be able to head home tuesday and when I get back there is going to SOME Serious Driving Time required!

Uncovered production notations on door panels under armrests - Black Carpet and Black Leather = Teppich Schwarz and Leder Schwarz. But different workers using different pens.
