Mounted my winter wheels and tires, swapped out my floor mats for my rubber winter mats, put my Thule roof rack mounts on the roof to get ready for ski season.

I had to clean some oily gunk from the upper right corner of the radiator (pic with Dawn grease killer) and get all the crud out of the intercoolers while I was at it, and then finally install my Curt hitch that fit with the exception being the bottom far right side bolt hole. Up front, some wire loom had been reinstalled improperly and some point and lots of debris was sucked rinsed and then blown out of the intercoolers. I also degreased the drivers side oil residue from the leaky elbow change last spring. I also figured out which misc fasteners are missing in the engine compartment and my registration has expired! The rear bumper will require further trimming, obviously, to fit the hitch in its entirety.
Nice morning's work though. Kinda makes me want to upgrade the stereo next!

Changed the oil and filter. I need the proper tool for the filter housing because, even after loosening the power steering lines, it's tight with a 36mm socket. Oh, and I don't know how one could get 37ft lbs on the drain plug without stripping it

Tried to fix a bad connection in the front left side marker. Every time I wash the car it gives me the error, something like 'check side light', even though the light is on. One time it was off and I tapped the side marker with my knuckle and the light came on. So, I took it apart, tightened the little connectors that hold in the bulb. Haven't washed it yet, but Durametric stills shows the fault . Durametric also says that the tailgate is limited in functionality because of the fault. This must be referring to the switch in the door for the tailgate, which does not work (maybe it's on the same ground point??). Otherwise everything works great. Guess I'll have to search wiring diagrams for ground points.

Dropped off at my mechanic for:
Brakes and Rotors all around
Front Wheal bearings
Install Air Suspension Compressor repair kit.
Was going to do all this myself but just cant find the time.

Track Day
I managed to get the satellite tuner installed last night, and all of the interior put back together. This morning I was able to get the Sat radio activated with SiriusXM, so I took it for a drive to test it all out.
