Besides great quality pads and discs the brake fluid is another part that makes a big difference, so do a brake fluid change if you haven’t recently. Follow up with change interval 3 year and get quality brake fluid (not the cheap ones).

Yes, its not a fancy cooling system unfortunately

What was the reason for such treatment I wonder ?

What banner 😅 Yeah. That’s the ball park of 2 temp values in a closed system, in my case A was lower and B was higher. I used that app to test it and see what option and ui it has which isn’t the best but curbing options to push for paid sub without improvements isn’t smart on their part...

Yes there are, delta is around 15-20F. I’ve noticed the oil temp for engine and transmission is now part of paid version.

Any difference driving performance with these spacers ?

Did you get 25mm spacers ? Tires looks like few mm outside of fender line or is that use to wider tires a stock size ?

I upgraded to Noco Genius 5, still have the old(noisy) Schumacher sc1359. No noise and it maintains batteries very well so far, the cable interconnection it’s very handy as I can switch between motorcycle and car.

Nope

See what you get from idle and drain battery tests.

So far it is noticeable around 15 to 25mph, over that it’s hard to notice it. The whine sounds like that of a super charger but much lower volume and kind of muffled tone.

I haven’t had issue yet with auto store that collect used oil, between the vehicles I have, once or twice a year trip to auto store is enough for me. Coolant is harder to recycle but our county has 3x/year free collection of such fluids so that solves that part.
