Am I the only one doing things to his car??

Anyway, today I replaced the engine oil, and bled the brake fluid system.

After that, a little cosmetic enhancement--new PTS Blue Turquoise headlight nozzles.

The instructions for doing that simple modification are here:

I walked by it in my garage while laying out my hockey equipment to dry.

Still 2' of snow on the ground.

Took it to the dealership to have multiple sounds tracked down.....dash bzzing eliminated with felt under speaker grills....squeaky door jambs fixed with silicone spray to all rubbing surfaces...then took her for a nice "quiet"drive.

Went and got the drivers window tinted having replaced it due to the break in.

Almost got hit by a tow truck on way. I was in right hand lane approaching a junction intending on going straight over, tow truck came screaming up the left hand lane and turned right across my path, going so fast that they had to go into the left hand side of the road they turned into before getting back over to the right hand side of the road. Grrrr

Just washed the car this weekend and it's raining here today so didn't want to take it out. Seemed like a good day to hook up the iPhone to the garage stereo, tune in Pandora, grab a beer, and do a wax job.

10,000 on the islands is not that simple! Glad to see that you're enjoying the car!
