With the sale season approaching and then winter, what are your modification/maintenance plans?

I'm hoping for a good sale on air suspension and plan on installing that before the summer wheels go back on. One of my summer tires has a ruined sidewall, so I'll need to get a new tire for that. I may also do the brakes as I'm feeling some pulsing under moderate braking. Finally, I'm sure an oil change will fall into the mix at some point.

 

Tires and wiper blades. rain-x all the glasses and carry on.

 

Oil change, wiper blades, clay and wax.

 

Rebuild my front wheels with larger lips and install tpms.

 

What's the process of using new tpms sensors and getting the car to regonize them?

 

Not sure of the process yet. Once I get my lips delivered I’ll look into it more closely.

 

Hook up Battery Tender. Snow predicted next week.

 

I feel that. I have one more track event on the fun car in 2 weeks, and then it's on the battery tender for 4 months. What's the winter car? Luckily not much snow in my area so the GS stays active, but I have the 4runner in case things get slippery.

 

I will likely wait until the weekend before Christmas. But my usual plan of attack this time of year is to wash it, let it dry completely, paint correction, Ammo Reflx, Ammo Skin, and Ammo Creme. Also clean the windows properly and shine up the tires and other visible plastics.

We get two weeks off at Christmas each year, so the sooner I can get all that done, the longer it just sits without being driven or touched. It'll take an entire weekend to do all those steps.

 

!4 RX for the daily driver. I'll drive the GS on occasion during the winter as long as the streets are dry. That doesn't happen very much around here.

 

Just finished my first paint correction / polish / ceramic sealant on my obsidian black. Lot of work but the results were well worth it.

 

Get my wife away from Acura and into a GS350 AWD F....waiting on the unchanged 2020 to arrive...Don't know why but she doesn't want a left over 19...go figure..

 

Lol ouch. I'm glad my wife agreed to a used 2016. About $30k less.

 

she sounds like a pain in the @$$

 

I can finally open my moon roof and enjoy the air. I'm in Phoenix and we're just now dipping below 90 degree days.
