Default The best $111.25 I ever spent!

Today I had my brakes flushed and the differential oil changed. My rear end had been making a lot of "whirring" or whistling type noises when accelerating from a stop. With this new oil and additive, there isn't even half the whirring!!! And I had noticed that the car to shake/vibrate at around 85MPH...This too has seemed to have been lessened with my freshly lubed rear end (no pun intended) I'm very pleased with my car!! Can't wait to changed the plugs, wires and fuel filter!!

Anybody have any other ideas for me while I'm on my "preventative maintenance" kick?? Thanks! :seeya

When you go to do the plugs and wires dont hesitate to pull that semi rigid hose right in front of the number 2 plug as well as the small wheel well cover just below the wheelwell weatherstrip passengar side front. It will save you hours, guaranteed, trust me :yesnod: :yesnod: :yesnod:

Changing the power stearing fluid did wonders for my stearing.
Took only a couple minutes and a few bucks.

Buy a can of silicone spray, apply it to a cloth and do all your weatherstripping. It is a small investment in cost and time to prevent expensive replacement for new weatherstripping.
