honestly it didn’t hardly drip out the bottom and i plan on  throwing some towels in the pan underneath. don’t think it will leak at all if i do that and the track staff would never know.
if it doesn’t work out it cost $15 and 30 mins so . . .

for now yes. going to empty the res and try denatured alcohol/water mix though. should give better cooling. just need to figure out how to disable the wipers so they’re not going every time i hit the switch lol

I guess after double checking the spark plug install today broke an ignition coil red retainer clip!!! 
I cut a 2 inch piece of a (Zip tie) and inserted in place of the plastic clip and hopefully it holds up well for the time being.  Z

Yeah, those clips are a real PITA   I am barebacking one coil right now on the Edge LOL.  Geezapeez, these replacements must be made of pure gold!

Ever since I swapped out the aluminum wheels for some graphite colored ones the chrome has been bothering me. So brought out the plastidip to get rid of the chrome on the front once again.. Gotta keep busy I guess!

Curious if you plastidipped your grille yet and if so any pics?

Swapped out the USB hub to support CarPlay. Took literally under 2 minutes... CarPlay works like a champ, very happy I made the swap.

Yes I did I'll try to take some photos for you

Didn't get any in sunlight with the new wheels but here is a photo of the last time I did the front chrome.

Nice!  Its nice to see someone else messing around with blacking things out.  Its funny bc I've taken it off before too thinking well maybe the original looks better.  And that lasts for about a day, then I regret showing chrome again.  I'm sure it looks great with graphite wheels.

Was in the process of gapping a BMW 5 when I started misfiring and dumping fuel. Torque app was throwing a dozen different codes. Limped to the nearest dealer to find out #1 injector had stuck wide open... "but hey, at least it's under warranty". F'n better be, it's only got 27-K on it!!!
Needless to say I'll be watching for that white 5 series rolling up on me and will dust him again. Till something else breaks.

Hope that's the last trouble you see for some time!
