Icarscan
I received my icarscan yesterday and will use it today on our VW to reset the service indicator. Total was $226.45, $182.00 for the unit but shipping was a lot and was 3 days from Hong Kong via DHL.

830 mile range
I went and drove a Gallardo at PBIR today for 5 laps. It was a bit rough, 21K miles, lots of lights on the dash, mismatched tires, but it was fun. As we were leaving I noticed that the Sunoco pumps had diesel at $3.05 a gallon and topped off at just under half a tank. I had been driving it easy and got a range of 830 miles, tried posting a pic but have not been able too lately. Coming into Jupiter on Indiantown road, diesel was $3.35.

Thanks to this nice cool weather my MPG’s are up noticeably. 420 miles at barely under 1/2 tank, with a range of about the same. Doing some ballpark math, this could be 32 mpg’s or so. It is colder this week, and I will try some 0-60 mph runs for fun and to see if my 7.6 from the summer comes down a bit.

Stage 3 tune
I am researching the Malone tuning stage 3 tune that requires a bigger garret turbo. It is a Garrett GTD2263VZ for 3.0 diesels being sold by Darkside developments in the UK. Malone said they can make the tune, so I am calling Wolfsburg Tuning tomorrow out of Naples Florida which is somewhat close to me.

I went to the Porsche dealership to register my cayenne for Car Connect and touch base with Braman Porsche for service. I guess my CPO goes until December 2022, and the drivetrain until dec 2024! So, that was good to hear. Saw a sweet Cayenne S by KPBI, and a really sweet GTS.
Thanks

50,000 mile oil change
Changed the oil at 49,977 miles with just about 5,000 miles on the oil. I decided to do it my self with a pump, save some money, and get an oil sample for Blackstone that I know is mine. Pump was cheap, $17.25, on eBay, oil from IDparts was $90.00 with an oil filter. Easy to do, dropped the oil off at Jiffy Lube and sample will be in the mail Monday.

I have been looking for something different than the mityvac oil extractor..
How does this electric pump work? Not too crazy about running the pump on the car battery. Maybe from a Cetek or another running car.. Did you have to prime it?
