Took the new to me C4 for its first drive. These are such great cars. It needs a few minor things but really not worth even listing.

Had a set of horrible condition Turbo I wheels "remixed and remastered" with Titanium III windows and a brushed face.

Does the factory hire Magnus Ver Magnusson to install the O2 sensors in the crossover pipes? I even bought the correct offset socket removal tool this time to make my life easier. Still a PITA. Worth it to get more ‘growlier’ though!

@anewman I'm about to tackle this project - did you drop your engine to gain clearance?
instruction doc attached

Today I replaced the radiator fan control module that was preventing my fans to run at high speed. 30 min project, and a $240 part. Drove for an hour with iCarSoft connected and everything is perfect again

Curious how you discovered this and/or if you observed any different behavior such as the operating oil temps being higher. I have become suspicious that my car is generally operating at higher oil temps than previously so I am assembling a plan to ensure healthy cooling.
