Changed the oil last night. Went with Moble 1 European formula (0w40) and Moble 1 10010 (whatever the physically extended filter) filter. I think I'll be purchasing a catch can next.
Dropping her off at the dealer. I think the cause of my dropping idle is due to dirty throttle bodies (59.5 k miles)
I'll also have them look at the voltage again, and figure out if I have a nail or a cracked rim. Tire is losing about 10psi every week or 2.
My grandmas Dalmatian poked a hole in the passenger seat, so looking for replacement. Probably will go with an aftermarket "racing" set of seats.
This is exactly why I have a second car, my German Shepard loves going for rides, just never in my G lol..
Bought a magnaflow cat back from a local. Fantastic price for a cat back and really opened the car up. Wow! Now I am still wanting to purchase a fast intentions catback, this will do until I can justify the funds for such an expensive metal tube lol.
Over all,it sounds good, is not too loud, and install was easy. I think I need one flex pipe replaced, but maybe this summer I'll take it to a shop. Overall I paid less than a top speed axle back, and I could not be happier with the deal!
Now I think I need to purchase an aftermarket plenum or look into polishing or whatever myself. Then a tune!
Took the car in for the flashing tpms light and damn, 3 out of the 4 sensors are bad. Picked up the car without work being performed. I need new tires anyway and will just have them replace the sensors when they mount and balance the tires.
On the plus side I wrapped majority of my interior. I just ran out of time to do the trim above the glovebox. I'll finish that Thursday.

This was my like my third time wrapping, so thank you!
don't listen to the dealership or bodyshops about pdr. there isn't a place on the car pdr can't fix. i had a palm indent in my M4 aluminum hood from someone closing it incorrectly and it came out perfect. youtube pdr repair and you will find that they use glue pull (professional glue pull, not stuff you buy from pep boys) for stuff they can't access behind a panel. the only thing you need to do is find a high end, experienced tech. do not use dent wizard.
check out youtube and yelp and make sure you get a reputable shop. some of them are butchers, and some of them are artists. plus, it will be one day in the shop compared to a week or two in a bodyshop.
edit: you'll probably have some money left from the insurance check for more mods.
I don't actually like it, but I also don't have the ***** to wrap my interior trim, so...
lol well then, so much for the positive vibes. lol jk I knew it wouldn't be for everyone! But my silver/aluminium trim was getting scratched and started to look bad. When I ordered the film it looked very different from what I received lol. I was expecting it to be a black with dark grey and light black patterns. I chose camo, because I'm a bit of a tac ***** lol.
Great thing about it is it's relatively simple & cheap to go another direction. That's one I'd have to see in person, but kudos for going your own way!
