Dropped it off at MAG for the check engine light and only getting music from the right side speakers when using the aux jack (yes I checked multiple cables and devices). They also said that I was due for the following under my free maintenance: 1. Brake Fluid Change 2. Microfilter change 3. Checking the brake pads and rotors They gave me the perfect loaner car for the wonderful weather we have been having....a red Justa convertible. Sam says Hi to all the MOMers.
Silverback achieved 95,000 miles today. Still going strong. Thanks to CHKMINI for taking such good care of the car before I acquired it.
Stopped in at Helix today. Had a new Milltek exhaust, SSA, and a vibratechnic upper motor mount installed. Then swung by a local-ish dealer to pick up a JCW shift knob for myself.
Picked Yertle up. FYI, there is soon to be a TSB for the Coolant Temp Sensor. That was what caused my CEL and the high speed fan to run after shutting the engine off.
Washed the car last night.... I think it was around 40-45 degrees? Not too cold. No way I was gonna drive Ryu all filthy when the rest of the week is going to be sunny :ihih: At lunch I took the long way and hit the highway... gave Ryu an Italian tune up :devil: Damn I love driving my car
Crossed 69k miles on my way into work. Called local MINI dealer about lease-end paperwork. Yes, I did all the things you have seen and driven all those miles on a lease. Obviously, I'm gonna buy it out. Amazingly, the market value is so good that the difference on the residual versus market value is WAAAAYYYY less than the mileage penalty.
