Thx MT

Had it on a lift at my favorite German indy shop in Charlotte - Dynamic Auto Tune. Car looks great other than both upper control arm bushings are cracking a little. I'll probably try to get them fixed under warranty. Is this a known "thing"?

A quick picture of the "new to me" 2016 Q5 TDI - post paint correction, with Gyeon Quartz Ceramic applied. An interesting comparison on the door panels during the process. And the final product at the shop. Here it is at home, in the rain.

Interesting, capp.
In the closeup of the two doors, the rear door appears to be full of swirl marks and the front door much smoother (presumably that's been treated?) but the reflections in the rear door seem sharper, oddly enough. Which is which ?

Yes, the front door has been "corrected", but before the QC applied. The rear door was untouched. The swirl marks are probably due to the PO running it through a low end car wash or use a stiff bristle brush . The second pic is the final product.

Since I can't check the Adblue level with Carista, I bought a bottle of the factory clean juice and added it to the car this morning. I then cut the bottom of the bottle and made an a little flap that I can lift up. That modified bottle I will now use as a funnel. I will be adding NON-Stealer Adblue (aka DEF ISO 22241 ) in the future.
