Long Needed Maintenance Accomplished at Lunch
I dread changing my oil....but I bought the oil and have a box of filters....
Drove over to the VW dealer to get some coolant, it's about 1.5 mile away....that darn "BEEP, BEEP, BEEP" goes off all the damn time due to low coolant level....
Changed out the o-ring in the vent....which I know was leaking due to the stuff on it....the o-ring was trashed, used a generic 8mm o-ring from a kit I had.

Then I changed the oil and filter....got to have the Rihno ramps....

It makes it so easy....did everything including the trip to the VW dealer and clean up within 60 minutes.
It's about 45 and nice out today in Chicago!

Those were my stock 17" wheels ET48 with 15 mm spacers to clear the Porsche brakes
I got rid of them, have stock 17" A6 4.2 five spoke wheels, ET35, they look great and clear the brakes with no spacers.
