Adjusted the hood latch so now the hood closes flush.

I also adjusted the drivers side wiper so it isn't quite as high on the windshield, after all, both use a 13 mm wrench.

Replace LH with a borrowed spare and it fired right up. Need to refit old FPR instead of S4 FPR as it is running rich without Porken Chips. Hopefully back on the road this weekend!

Actually, Ken, after a bit of research here...I found some info that mentioned they do not always go out immediately...and there may be a slight delay. So, I went out and checked them, after the doors had been closed for a bit...they were both out.

Now, I just sit and wait patiently for the next electrical issue.

But, in the meantime...I checked the trans fluid, since I thought the shifts were somewhat lazy. It was right on the minimum level before, so I added fluid while it was warm, running in neutral. Now, it's a very short curly hair (trying to be politically correct) below the maximum level mark...and the shifts seem harsh now...which...sometimes I like that, but other times it just feels to harsh. So, I may mess with the fluid level and get it smack dab in the middle.

Didn't feel like doing anything mechanical tonight, had enough of that at work, so I cleaned the enterior and windows.

Brian.

Washed her... and once I did front left quarter panel I have sworn to never let my 928 ever get so dirty again. Ever.

Question

Hi
New guy here (long time lurker)
I'm just finishing my audio update. Porsche classic radio navigator, Focal speakers front and far back and jl audio c3 6" in rear, MOSCONI GLADEN D2 100.4 DSP fits in the original amp spot, Sub in the spare tire spot, Dynamat everything I could reach It sounds so wonderful! then I hit the Nav button and NO MAPS? oh well. If anyone knows where to get US maps for this thing I would really appreciate knowing.
