    Apparently very slow. Took two pumps of oil to top it off. Want to drain front, rear and xfer case now. Have everything I need minus the additional oil and new washers. Scared to strip a bolt tho.

    Took it to the dealership today (waited two weeks for appointment) and had it fixed for 100 bucks (extended warranty deductible). The service guy called saying some bull shit about my check engine light coming on and asking me about being due for a service. Told him I wasn't due for another 2k.

    WTF is that about?

    Well, I can tell that I REALLY miss my truck because I just spent $400 on some NFab steps and some car care shit (including foam cannon and Meguiar's wash & wax).

    The used dealership I bought it from took it back last Tuesday night and has had it since... New tranny mount and apparently the rear driveshaft has been rebuilt and is *hopefully* arriving tomorrow (Tues) and will be in the truck by end of work day. So far, something they missed has cost them upwards of $1k in parts and labor as well as wear and tear on a complimentary rental. Just goes to show that even when a dealership is buying something, they don't always follow the motto of "Do it right the first time and do it once!"

    Since then I've had a Jeep and I feel so, so dirty :poking:

    You can wet sand with 3000 grit sand paper then follow up with a buffing compound to bring the shine back. If this sounds crazy to you, or you have never wet sanded before then this is probably not a good option for you. With a block the results can be quite stunning.

    Nice 370Z, got to drive one once. Pretty impressive little car. Interior wasn't all that just like on the first, and second gen tacos, but the performance was outstanding. Especially for the price.
