Took my car in for it's first service today - poor baby's lost her virginity - I took the opportunity to replace the oil with Mobil 1 Gold (0W-40) and a Mobil 1 oil filter, that should keep her running sweetly!


The sad news is that my car got rained on for the first time... :-(

Much blood loss getting that stupid plug in? - my hands are still scarred from it two weeks later...!

Yeah a bit I took the drivers kick panel out because of the service manuals image and mention about removing airbag (baloney).But found the best access was to remove the head unit, and the right hand side headunit support bracket and access was easier. Still not sure how different it will be with the AC. If you end up doing the vrx pedals your going to make a small cut in the rubber backing otherwise getting them on the frame won't work
