Talking Woo hoo - first drive of the season!

The local weather has started to get warm. We had a good rain over the weekend, so I am confident that most of the road salt is gone. I decided to drive my C2 coupe to work. It felt great. I loved the nimbleness of the car, the sounds, acceleration, braking, etc. A great way to start a work day.

Looking forward to drive the 964's as my daily drivers again. The Volvo can go back to once in a while.

Awesome!! We had snow again and the blows dropped some salt:-( So my car will stay off the road until we get a good April shower to wash all the junk away.

What are you trying to do? I have a Scantool. It will do everything that a Hammer does except bleed the PDAS.

Funny thing, I *parked* my 964 for the summer. Pulled out the '84 cabrio.

It'll get out to be cleaned, and have summer tires fitted, in case I need it. But it is my fall/winter driver.

Reinstated collision insurance with big plans.... Got her ready and had her out for a few days then a blizzard in ND. Now she is back up on lift and parked till the snow and salt/sand is gone.

...bleed the PDAS. lol.

I got the lock rebuild kid from Colin at Ninemeister in england. My front lock was leaking. I also dont think the brake fluid in my car has ever been flushed. If it has been in was a very long time ago.
