Missed a tune up....
Just going over some maintenance records as I approach the 200k mile mark and I've realized I'm 12k miles overdue for a complete tune up.
Hope I didn't hurt anything..

Can't find the blinker fluid resoviour and I have this hose that goes to nowhere.
The damn muffler bearings are difficult to get to, should I spray them with Pam?
Oh my poor baby...

Haha.
The problem with the 4th gen is that there arent many cars that blend all of the amenties i want into such a nice package.
Im lookin for a 4dr G35 MT but thats needle in a haystack! Also looking at Acura TL and TSX. Im not sure about German performance yet, but i tell u what, the market is FLOODED with used Audi. I even found a S4!!

and all you need with that car is headers (for some ponies), muffler delete, wheels and slammage. Hold out for a nice one, it'll be worth it truusst

Working at Audi in about 2007, I never did see an audi engine with a timing belt, lots of chains though. I suppose they must have used them on the VW 4 bangers they used.

And the 1.8T from earlier generation.
For kicks and giggles i researched how to replace the belt. It was a 2 page long procedure in which the radiator, condensor, front fender AND turbo has to come out just to get to the timing case!!! Priceless
The 2.4 from the TSX comes with a chain so im lookin for one of those or a low miles 6th gen maxima MT
