So drove the Sedan a few times now, did it first oil change at about 85 miles on the engine. Next one at 500 miles
-Small oil leak on feed line for turbo (should be resolved)
-Small oil leak on oil return off turbo (think its still leaking, only one drop of oil after I turned it off though)
-Small oil leak on oil pump housing or crank seal (bugger, easy repair but not good it didn't take)
-Suspension has a few clunks from sway bar end links
I plan to get 1500-2000 miles on it before winter, drop the oil pan (this car is supposed to run on synthetic) so need to check the pan, do oil leak fixes, make some adjustments and hopefully vinyl wrap this car.
So Wagon got some new wheels, these are the wheels it would have came with in 2000. Love the look. Wagon just needs a brake booster for repairs. I want to add a trailer hitch to it for extra "this car does everything factor"
Clean ecopower
Dirty ecopower
It rained today while I was putting in my new garage door opener on my side of the garage; I did my wife's side 2 years ago and it was super quiet, bought another one, said the only way I would install it is if I got that car running and it moved under its own power.
And then...we traded in her 2015 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport for a 2019 Subaru Forester. Mitsubishi is looking like its going the way of Suzuki with Nissan mismanaging money as it is, don't think they will make it much longer than another 2-3 years. Took the equity we had and ran.
The Forester is fantastic we got the Limited with the Power liftgate, harmon kardon, panoramic roof, and stuff.
Parking lot
And I modded it
