Default Update

Last Friday I picked up the transmission and I then drop it off to Rrracing . Now I’m going to go pick up the car Rafi said it’s done . Yeah can’t wait lol I hope no one goes through what I went through and I hope I have no problems after picking it up . Going through a lot and just getting into the F and driving takes the stress away .

It's a lot to go through. I hope this is the last of this saga for you.

Same here. Hoping great things are on the horizon for you.

Just a side thought, always get it up to full operating temp before beating on it. I’m sure you do, but I didn’t know that when I was younger and I really was hard on cars. I’d also accelerate the maintenance intervals on a boosted, high power car such as yours. Clean fluids are our friends. These are things nobody ever told me as a youngster, and honestly, it wasn’t obvious to me.

thanks for the tips . I have work at car dealerships since I was 16 and I’m 35 now so I know when to do maintenance and service intervals which is required to do ,so the longevity of the cars life would last longer . I do oil changes at 3k miles on the Lexus instead of 5k miles . I know I have a lot of miles on the car so when Rrracing usually see somthing I change it right away and I know the car is like 10 years old so not surprised if I have to change somthing that goes bad just sucks that it was major things that failed but when having this much power something is going to go and gonna need to upgrade things . I hope it last longer this time around lmao . Good thing I have 2 other cars Audi s4 and Audi Q7
