    I let mine idle for 15 minutes.
    I need to clean up my rotors and put new pads on after the last DE event I went to.
    waiting on wheels and brake pads.

    Put about 220 mile son her going to work; coming home, then back to pick my wife up after her car died... Tomorrow will be worse with trying to get her's fixed

    In other words, all my .:R mad money is going once more to her car instead.

    Drove to work then home about 25 miles... A few days ago installed my clear corners... Then installed an Evmos intake, and now I'm waiting on my Blue Flame exhaust to get hear to install that.

    Um......you missed a spot!

    Just kidding!


    Didn't do anything to my .:R other than the normal 60 miles/day drive to work and back. I did show her off to a fellow board member whose '07 GTI I VAG-COM'd, though. She is in desperate need of a bath, though. She's a filthy whore!
