What have you done to your P5 today?

[CTt3P5]

Those are the best all-seasons. One of the only all-seasons that isn't crap in the snow...

I've read a lot of good reviews on them and the one 'con' I've seen repeated is the soft sidewall. Initially I planned on buying some UHP or HP summer tires but figure these would fill in nicely should we get an unexpected snowfall before I can get the snows mounted on the car...that and I'd be able to run them a little longer in the season even with the colder temps.

Vacuumed and wiped down the interior; wash tomorrow morning before the sun hits.

found some tar or some sticky goop on my fogs and headlights today when washing. used some goof off since i had some available and it took the car right off the foglight with no issue. then went to the headlight and it started eating away the plastic immediately! so let it be known to not use this stuff, ever. eventually ill buy some cheap lights off ebay to do a lens swap. not to happy right now. my lenses are really pitted it looks like too

^^^Uh oh...going to be putting up my 03.5 MSP part out here shortly...if anybody needs anything be on the lookout...

You know the bit where it says to test it on a small area to ensure that it doesn't react with what you're trying to clean? *sigh*

Also, aren't the fogs glass where as the headlights are plastic? (shrug)

 

[ScratchNSniff]

Lol...

 

[reut1]

foolish me it seems. this is my dumb mistake on my car i guess

 

[ScratchNSniff]

Great time to buy some MSP headlights...hehe...

 

[reut1]

i absolutely knew you were gonna throw that at me. haha. im gonna think about it. at least this isnt a performance mistake i made, just cosmetic. and its at the top of the lens so shouldnt affect the light output. but ill let ya know scratch!

also got my new spark plugs in today. delivered much sooner than i thought they would be.

 

[ScratchNSniff]

Lol...I don't know why those stupid things won't sell...try the 3M headlight restore and see if it works or the ScratchX...

Cleaned the EGR, didn't make a difference in the vibrations at idle.

reut1, I just picked up some Turtle Wax headlight restore stuff and I'll use it tomorrow. I'll let ya know how well that works.

I also picked up some black "plastic" spray paint for the silver interior bits, some Lucas fuel injector cleaner, a can of that Engine Restore stuff, a K&N oil filter and a 5 quart jug of Castrol synthetic. Tomorrow will be a fun day wrenching.

well actually any compound works great as long as you use it on a buffer and not by hand lol
